Galaxy A21's construction is newer and somewhat thinner than the HTC One ME's, but it's also heavier. Both phones in our current comparison use Android OS, but the Galaxy A21 has a more recent 10 version and HTC One ME has Android 5.0 version, so it gives you a couple additional features and enhanced performance.

HTC One ME has an incredibly better display than Galaxy A21, because although it has a way smaller display, it also counts with a way better pixel density and a lot higher resolution of 2560 x 1440.
The Galaxy A21 takes slightly better pictures and videos than HTC One ME, because although it has a much tinier back-facing camera sensor providing a way worse image quality, a camera with a lower 16 mega pixels resolution and a way worse 1920x1080 video definition, it also counts with a larger aperture for better low-light photography and videos.
HTC One ME has a lot bigger storage to store more apps and games than Samsung Galaxy A21, and although they both have exactly the same 32 GB internal memory capacity, the HTC One ME also has an external memory card slot that holds a maximum of 2 TB.
