Yes,
There are a few posters here that are just rabid in their hatred of Apple so twist facts to their agenda. They are actually ruining the forum tbh as there is no possibility of a rational debate. There are pros and cons to both systems.
I can't speak for the HTC one but after using a 5s and Nexus 5 for the last few weeks, both excellent phones from a user point of view the main issue I still have from Android is the effort in managing the battery and perhaps more software unreliability type of issues such as Skype just rebooting the phone.
A good example was a recent problem in google services which drained my battery on the N5 in less than 2 hours which was a little annoying as I was out and so couldn't use my phone.
You get bugs in iOS but on the whole it's a more reliable system which is to be expected given that the hardware and software are more integrated.
Chrome is getting better but the smoothness of scrolling/pinch and zoom on the 5s safari browser is another level.
