As an HTC ONE owner I would recommend it. The battery is fine. Just buy a car charger and you're good to go
If battery life was fine, why would he need a car charger?
And what if he doesn't drive?

I'm just not seeing why battery life or Samsung-like "features" makes the Maxx better than the One.
I'm amused that you list a long list of HTC "features", then say this.
Don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of Sense, and much prefer their Mail, Contact & Dialer apps over stock Android.
But IMO, Active Notifications is the real killer feature on my Moto X. Though if you're willing to put up with the increased battery drain on an LCD, it can be emulated.

One X = vanity
Droid Maxx = practicality, performance, usefulness, longevity
It is quite honestly an absolute no brainer. They are not even in the same class of phone. If price mattered then maybe there would be an argument but if price is no object then it is absolutely a no brainer.
The active display seems to stay dark unless you pick up/move the phone. I guess it doesn't do the "breathing" thing unless there's a notification waiting.
If I was going to spend $600-650 on a Verizon phone, I'd probably be seriously considering the Moto X Developer Edition, although they're out of stock.
It's a "mute" point now. I got the standard Droid Maxx. I could do without the bloatware, but it honestly doesn't bother me that much.
To reiterate, the HTC One was not considered for vanity--not even close. It was considered for its quality design and construction, something one can't truly appreciate looking at pictures and reading reviews. It's something you have to experience.
But in the end, I decided that the Moto X feature set combined with the big battery was the winner.
Thank you all for the comments and "pole" votes.
(Yes, I misspelled poll intentionally--a throwback the Fusetalk days. Oldtimers should remember.)
Just fine? The battery life's really bad. I barely used mine today and by the time I got off work it was down to 35%. It's ironic I see a bunch of the reviews and how damn long it takes fully charge. But I'm a sucker for metal phones so I bought one the other day, but the battery life's about 1/2 a notch better than the Nexus 4 I had prior to it. And that sucker has WTF bad battery life. With that said the One with a 3rd party Kernel & the Viper Rom's pretty damn sweet to use.
