Not the whole phone.
People have said this:
Front looks like Bberry Z10.
Back looks like Xperia P/Ion.
You can't argue with that. The similarities are clear. I aint starting a war  Just pointing out the obvious.
Same thing goes for TouchWiz and iOs back in the day. There are more examples also but cant be bothered listing.

One annoyance for me is that in one review they said the Blink Feed cannot be deactivated

This brings me to the conclusion that we've reached saturation in how phones can be designed and still keep the whole large touchscreen look, Htc clearly paid a lot of attention to detail, choosing great materials and so on, seems they were unlucky enough to end up with a phone that looks like a few others.
Away
feeling the heat in the Samsung camp, eh?
WTF?
Nice fail.
Okay someone please, give him a hug...or something!

And that's the thing, the design hasn't changed a whole lot from last years One series, just a little squarer. Can clearly see it's typical HTC. I do think they are due for an overhaul in that area (design) though. Sort of like what Sony has done over the years, Arc, NXT bla bla.
Id much prefer if other manufacturers took to what Sony does and regularly bring out good designs, be different. That's their best strength currently IMHO, and generally why I choose Sony for my mobiles. Design plays a big part for me. Especially since we're at a point where we have all the power we (I) need in a phone.
Also, not super keen on aluminium, much prefer the poly of the One X, Lumia 900 etc.

You can make the colors on the 808 as saturated as your heart desires, there are plenty of settings to do so at the time of capture.
In terms of quality, its really no contest.. |

Comparing the One's and 808's cameras is like comparing a Porsche and a Beetle! 
Come on!
The One doesn't seem the best competitor among the normal shooters let alone going against the 808 and specially in the 808's 5MP mode!
The second shot was DN shot.. When you go with real low light or cloudy grey days no comparison. And at daylight the One is no where close to the 808's cleanliness not to mention lower detail!

Well i don't think the front of the One looks like any other HTC only the back does. HTC were also a bit different recently with their 8S and 8X designs.

Wonderful phone but I am still not convinced by the camera, samples just look too noisy.
S4 wins for camera, One wins for design/build. |

Looking forward to seeing how this and GS4 fair against each other, both are going to be the flagships for their respective companies until next year. LG Optimus G Pro will be another one to watch

Wise money would be on the S4.
As much as i love HTC, the One and their android skin, they're outclassed by Samsung.
The fact they're now slagging off Samsung via twitter and by other means, shows more desperation rather than an actual decent arguement.
