Top 5 Smartphones to Consider Before Buying the iPhone 5 [May, 2014]

HTC One

Last year's HTC One was recently replaced by the HTC One M8 but that doesn't mean that it's no longer a top notch phone. It is. And it's also way more affordable then it once was with retailers like Amazon practically giving it away for free.

The HTC One is HTC's former flagship and a smartphone that many people consider to be one of the best smartphones of all time. This distinction comes from the features it has on board which include a solid metal design that's on par with the iPhone 5's, Ultrapixel camera, a 4.7-inch full HD display, a fast processor, and Sense 6 software.

Prospective iPhone 5 buyers would also be wise to consider the HTC One because it should continue to get Android software updates in the future.
