Yeah...yeah....
This old man seems to feel the need to finally use a real smartphone.
Being in the IT business for long, I have gotten tired of beating the latest trends and have stopped trying to be gadget updated. However, I am beginning to feel that the smartphone is going to be part of my daily needs.
The title says it all --- please share your thoughts on what I should purchase among the three choices.
Thanks for your help, my Redemption family.
Peace and Godbless.

I also work in IT so my mobile device is very important for what I do. My wife, our extended family and myself used no less than a dozen Android phones. They were all great at first, but after a few months started working very poorly. Slowly we've all switched to an iPhone which has worked great for all of us. I've had mine now for two years. It would take a small miracle or complete belly flop by Apple to get me to purchase another Android phone. HTC products were the absolute worst among the Android products we've experienced.

Thanks much for you input Gabe.
I have done some research and it seems that Galaxy is also competitive. Am awaiting other comments.

HTC One is the best designed, but the Galaxy wins out in raw power. I really don't like the overlays both HTC and Samsung put on stock android but neither of them is make or break on the device. Really any device running Android 1 or higher is a great competitor to the iPhone and I'd recommend either the One or the Galaxy depending on what you need more. Galaxy has a better camera, better battery life, and is expandable if you run out of storage space. The One has the better design, is more rugged (all metal instead of plastic) and better audio.

iPhone. Because Siri tells knock knock jokes.

I'm NOT an IT guy or tech savvy at all, just an average consumer. In fact, I've only had my galaxy (phone) a couple of months. (I've had my galaxy, the tablet, for just under a year.)
So far, I'm happy and content. Then again, I have only downloaded like 5 apps, make phone calls, and occasionally get on the internet.

Thanks guys.
BTW, what's the latest HTC One model number. I see one that says HTC One SV --- is that the latest model?

This is the new one, it's just called the One
