Galaxy S5 v HTC one m8

I'm in a dilemma

After pre-ordering the Galaxy S5, I'm starting to be drawn towards the HTC one m8.

Does anyone have any opinion in which would be the better handset, or is it the same old, it's personal preference??

I know the camera / battery life is better on the S5 but the HTC has a nicer design and luxury feel.

Any thoughts are welcome.

Thanks!

I am not impressed by the HTC one m8 - It almost seems like a step back - particularly the incredibly large bezels on the top and bottom. The camera is an interesting feature, but nothing that I'd consider killer. More importantly, having held the HTC One M8, it is nowhere nearly as nice as the previous HTC One to hold.

Out of these two phones, I'd go S5, but quite honestly, I think both are a let down for their lines.

Nothing really amazing on any new smartphone we are now at the stage of small increases .
Next step up will be the new Samsung line at some time in the future .

Back on topic.
Looking at the HTC and the Samsung, there really isn't much in it at all. The HTC feels a bit snappier in switching screens and apps, but nothing really noticable.

Project ARA has the potential to change smartphones forever. I am very excited about the concept.

But I don't think it will be a major hit. By the same token, it definitely on my want list.
