Comparison review
HTC One has a score of 69, which is slightly better than Sony Xperia V's 64.2 overall score. Even though the HTC One and Sony Xperia V were only released 6 months apart, HTC One's construction is somewhat heavier but somewhat thinner than Sony Xperia V. Both phones we are comparing here have Android operating system, but HTC One has a more recent 5.0 version and Sony Xperia V has Android 4.3 version, giving you a couple nice extra features.
The HTC One has a little bit better looking display than Sony Xperia V, because it has a higher screen density, a lot better 1920 x 1080 resolution and a little bit larger display. The HTC One has just a bit better performance than Sony Xperia V, and although they both have a 400 MHz graphics processor, the HTC One also has a greater number of cores and a higher amount of RAM memory.
The HTC One features a very superior memory to store more apps and games than Sony Xperia V, because although it has no slot for SD memory cards, it also counts with 32 GB internal memory. The HTC One counts with better battery lifetime than Xperia V, because it has 2300mAh of battery capacity instead of 1750mAh.
The HTC One has a little bit better camera than Xperia V, because although it has a camera with much less mega pixels and a lower video definition, it also counts with a bigger diafragm aperture to capture better low light images.
HTC One is not only the best devices in this comparison, but it's also a bargain compared to the other devices, which makes it an obvious call.
