Thanks for sharing the video. I was thinking about trying the HTC One, but this has changed my mind.

HTC was using Nokia’s high amplitude mics for HTC One, without Nokia's permission, so they can not continue to use them - what will happen for audio quality soon ?

HTC One camera main issue is that it loses focus when shooting videos. With Lumia 920 the video shooting is at its best!

Very good video. I like his presentation of both platforms. Very professional and as unbiased a review as I've seen. I don't think the Lumia 920 has anything to worry about as long as what we currently get from Nokia in the L920 continues to improve. Nokia has to know that if it wants to keep the crown, it has to get about improving its algorithm AND updating the Lumia 920 aggressively.

Great vid'.

Technology amazes me, and I'm pretty happy with my 920 overall.

I've been waiting for Lumia 920 for almost six months... and still haven't changed my mind about getting it.

Honestly I doubt much will happen. HTC wont want to have to re-design the phone, these things have already been manufactured. I expect that HTC will pay a penalty or license the mic tech, and in a couple weeks this will all be over.

That was my biggest frustration using the phone's camera. Exposure and focus are REALLY aggressive.

Honestly, I'm very impressed with the One. It's the first HTC in a LONG time that I've liked. I just happen to like the Lumia 920 better. ESPECIALLY if the camera is important to you.
