Ok, compared both yesterday. I think the Sony is a bit too big for my liking. Loved HTC's build quality. Few questions:
1) How is the battery life?
Very good, compared to my old DesireHD, I use mine as a GPS device when playing golf, which requires GPS (duh) and a mobile data connection for loading satellite images on the fly and I normally have the backlight on full so I can read it easily in direct sunlight, the DesireHD would be lucky to get through a full round (4+ hours), the HTCOne battery usually barely even notices that I've been using it for that. I say usually a couple of weeks ago I was playing and it completely drained itself in less than 12 holes which was odd, after it restarted when I connected the charger in the car it was fine and hasn't done that again since, so I presume it was a bug in the golf app (the battery usage indicated that it was that app that had used all the battery.
Day to day usage It's pretty good, I've normally got either a wifi or mobile data connection running all day and it doesn't give it any trouble, the DesireHD I usually end up having to connect it to the laptop to charge at some point.
2) How is camera quality & low light performance?
Very good, no complaints.
3) How is network reception?
As far as I can tell, fine. I say that because I'm on O2 and their reception always seems to be worse than most other networks (I can't get 3G at home for example but every other network can). I can't say I've noticed it constantly dropping calls for example.
