That aluminum case is nice until you owned it for 2 years and ding it. There is no fixing it. I also read that the phone is extremely hard to repair/replace screens unlike Galaxy. If you really care for an aluminum case, get one for the Galaxy, another point of replaceable cases.

My ONLY reasons for considering HTC One : by far better night photo ability due to bigger sensor, speakers on the front and a more “mature feel”.
