We got photos and videos from both shooters side-by-side, used in everyday situations so you can get a feel of what each shooter is capable of and which one might be more suitable for you. Especially if the camera is a deal breaker for anyone interested in picking up one fo the two. Let’s begin, shall we?
*Keep in mind, we focused on pure optical ability, not camera modes & features.

Ultrapixels Vs. Megapixels
So with the two different types of lenses used, which one is actually better? Honestly it truly depends on your personal needs. The One offers less dynamic range and doesn’t offer a large amount of detail but has better low-light performance. While the GS4 provides a more clarity, brighter colors but fails in low-light – even using the Night photo setting didn’t help. Comparing the lenses are like Apples to Oranges as both shooters have their highs and lows.
To better answer the question poised in the above paragraph. If you want to just take great photos/ video from social media sites or a YouTube vlogger – the HTC One is for you. If you plan or like the option to do more with your photos like print them out/ blow it up to frame it – then the Galaxy S4 is for you. Honestly, you can’t lose with either one.
