Introduction
Cellphones have become such an important part of most peoples lives so the competition is
heating up among the smart phone companies. Apple is a leading competitor against many of
these companies because of their unique software solely used for their only cellphone, the

System), but are still combatted by Microsofts Windows phone software. These three
operating systems force the cultivation of a comparison between the iPhone, Galaxy and HTC
One smartphones. In this report, we will discuss which smartphone is the best option for those

sleek designs and flashy interfaces, but this report will reveal the most important specifications
about each phone. Knowledge of these specifications is critical to a consumers choice and
