Here in Malaysia, the Sony Xperia Z2, Samsung Galaxy S5 and the HTC One are priced near to each other. Heck, it is simpler to say that they all share the same RM2399 price tag.
This is rather expensive for an average Malaysian but if they have the money, then it is best to find out the best of the three before deciding on a purchase. We have conducted a thorough comparison between the three devices and it appears that the HTC One M8 is the best of the crop with the Galaxy S5 landing last on the list.
The Samsung Galaxy S5 might be the most feature-packed smartphone in the world today. It even came with new technologies like the heart rate scanner. However, it appears that the features are built for the papers. When the hands-on test is done, every new thing on the S5 severely lacks quality.
Then, there is the Xperia Z2. The smartphone is the exact opposite of the S5. It might not come with a fingerprint scanner or a heart rate sensor but it does have quality. Heck, Sony even blesses it with the biggest pixel count on a smartphone to date. The 20.7MP rear camera is surely a surprise feature. However, it is half-a-step behind the HTC One M8.
Speaking of which, this latest device is crafted with precision and style. By far, it is the best looking smartphone in the world. The high-end metal finish puts it ahead of the S5 and the Z2. Then there is the Sense 6.0 UI which gives it the edge over the Sony Xperia Z2. Aside from that, everything about the One M8 is similar to its Japanese counterpart.
To cap things off, it is the One M8’s faster UI and better design that automatically made it a champion. Of course, the 4MP Ultrapixel camera could have done better but it is still good enough to snap a great picture. Make the wise decision and spend your money on the HTC One M8.
