Yeah, but is it THE One?

Why you can trust TechRadar We spend hours testing every product or service we review, so you can be sure you’re buying the best. Find out more about how we test.

We've done a little bit more of an in-depth test with the HTC One, and subjected it to our Benchmarking system.

For this we've used three platforms: Antutu, SunSpider and PeaceKeeper to a decent level of comparison. However, it's clear this is a powerful phone indeed, staying at the sharp end of all our testing, and even besting the normally-impregnable Galaxy S4 (although only the quad core version).

If numbers mean a lot to you, feast your eyes below. If they don't, then just take our word for it: the HTC One is a blindingly quick phone.
