HTC One M8 or Iphone 6?

I've never had an iphone...always had HTC Incredibles. My mic on my phone is broken from being dropped too many times so people can barely hear me when I talk on it. I was debating getting the M8 (don't want S5 or G3) or waiting to see what the iphone 6 has for a while now. I originally was going to wait and pick one after I could compare the two but now with my mic is having issues...I'm wondering if I should just say F it and get the M8.
Thoughts?

Just get the M8.
Though I can't say enough good things about the iPhone.

No. I got the Galaxy S5, remember? And I hate it. :/

September is a long time to wait with a busted phone unless you're unhappy with HTC or android in general.
If you're indifferent between platforms I would say get the M8 since you can get it ASAP.

I knew you were having problems with the Galaxy, thought you might have said eff it and switched over. The gf has a Galaxy and it is a massive POS.

It feels so cheap.

m8 seems to get a lot of love, the only consistent complaint I've seen on it is the camera, but that's not really an issue to me.

I was looking at it till I started reading about the camera. Then I decided to just go off the deep end and purchase the Lumia 1020. After being underwhelmed with the Amazon phone I was going to wait around for the i6(or just get the i5s if I got too antsy), but figured I might as well go all out on the camera since it's one of my favorite features of a smart phone.

You'll be waiting another 3 months for the new iPhone.
Just in case though, are you sure the mic holes aren't clogged with dirt? That's what happened with my iPhone 5. Everyone was saying i sounded very muffled. I took a thumb tack to the holes to clean them out and now I sound fine again.

it really does. I came from an HTC EVO LTE and the first time I held the S4 I thought it was gonna shatter. It feels horribly cheap for such a high tech device. HTC really sets the bar for build quality.
ETA: BilJette, just get the M8 baw

Sometimes a program will open, like S Voice or Facebook, and I didn't even touch anything. There are programs on here I don't need but can't uninstall because Samsung obviously has contracts with the developers.
If I open the browser and go to a page, sometimes only half the page will load. Really? My BlackBerry never did that. I took it in and they ran tests on it and said, "She looks fine to me." What the frick ever.

I just switched to the M8 from an iphone 4s. I like the M8. It's just a much better all around phone. My only complaint is that when using Chrome, I have to touch the address bar 2-3 times sometimes before it registers. Otherwise, I'm happy to be rid of the iphone.
Granted, I am no longer tech savvy, and probably utilize about 1% of my phone's capabilities. But the 1% I utilize seems much better to me.

M8 should be better. The 4S is almost 3 years old.
