Battery life and processing power are the two most demandable smartphone specs. Samsung fans can experience the very new and advanced Galaxy S4, HTC lovers can test HTC One with an absolutely new Sense UI, and of course, iOS admirers can check out iPhone 5. However, neutralizers would definitely find it hard to make a choice between the three.
Apple products are always a bit expensive than Android devices, so those seeking an on-Budget smartphone would prefer Samsung or HTC. Screen size is also a demandable spec that smartphone users intensely wish for. Samsung Galaxy S4 steals the crown at 5.0 inches, closely followed by HTC One at 4.7 inches. Apple is never keen on extending its screen size, which is evident from 4.0-inch iPhone 5, though it bears the finest quality display.
Apart from all these, smartphone users should focus on two crucial specs while purchasing a device. Processing power and battery life are intensely valuable specs that make a device more admirable. Check out the following table that notes an accurate comparison of battery life and processing power of the hottest smartphones of 2012-2013 so far – iPhone 5, Samsung Galaxy S4 and HTC One.
