Galaxy note 3 or HTC one?

[Anonymous]

I don't know if this is the right place to post this...

But I'm having a difficult choice choosing between the Samsung galaxy note 3 and the HTC one.

They both seem like nice phones but I really don't know, was drifting towards the HTC but now toward to note 3 haha

Must be easy to type on, I will be playing a few games so must have good game play on it, and also looking for strong battery life!

Was thinking about the iphone 5s but not too sure about that anymore to be honest.

Also one other question, when I get one of these phones. Does anyone do anything to 'optimise' the battery, like letting it drain fully then charging fully? Or doesn't anything like this make a difference?

I'm only 16 but making mum get me the contract, Its going to be 2 years so I want one I will be able to use for 2 years no problem, without getting bored or anything haha.

Thankyou and hope you can help!:)

I've been toying with all the phones you mention in the stores over here.

My preferences:
1.Note 3
2. iPhone 5S
3. HTC One

Ultimately it's all down to personal preference.

@Anonymous..now see what you have done . You have opened a real can of worms

between MI5 and bandofbrothers...

You realise that MI5 is totally Android..while BoB loves all things Apple

They will never agree...but its all banter...oh no wait.....its not!!

IMO the 5s screen is too small to play games on or watch films on after all these years it's still stuck at 4 inches the note 3 has a glorious 5.7 inch screen

I dont really play games on my iPhone 5s apart from the odd go at angry birds or JetPack Joyride.

Ive viewed films and its fine for that.

That said the real estate on the Note 3 is impressive and hey if you get stuck for something to eat your lunch off ,then the note 3 has another use !

A massive plus IMHO!

And mine and with the long battery life and the fact that it's swappable on the note 3 that would be my choice

Sorry to tap into this thread, but I can't find how to start a new thread.

I recently, about 4 weeks ago upgraded to a Galaxy Note 3.   Since then I have had a problem when looking for accesories in that all the galaxy Note S 3 on display and online have a small connector , but mine has a much larger double built in connector and no accesories are suitable to my connector.   So, add this to your decision making as a note from 02 may have this 'non-standard' connector.    I therefore cannot buy a mobile charger, as they all have the small connector, as do the leads on car chargers etc.

Also, on another note, (no pun intended) don't buy the Samsung case at O2 at £49.99, it is half that price from Samsung.!!!!

Anyone any info on why I have this strange connection built into my samsung?

The small connector plugs into the right hand side of the big socket. You don't need anything special.
That's a standard Note 3 socket which has changed from the previous notes and Samsung phones.
