Personally, I think the Galaxy S 4 is better, but it depends on what you value. Here is a summary of the pros each device has over the other:
Galaxy S 4:
More features (like multi window, can be used while wearing gloves and so on)
Newer Android version (and higher chance of getting longer support, based on Samsung's and HTC's previous track records)
Higher performance (CPU, GPU as well as storage performance)
Removable battery
microSD card slot
Smaller, thinner, lighter.
Longer battery life (under normal usage)
Better still images (in normal and bright light conditions like outdoors)
Does not have both hardware and software buttons. (Yes you get a software menu button on the HTC One in some applications).
Supports HEVC.
HTC One:
Feels more premium (aluminum vs plastic)
Front facing stereo speakers
Better video recoding (higher FOV and better image stabilization)
Better still images (in low light, like indoors)
Lowest capacity model is 32GB (compared to 16)
Here is a picture of the menu button on the HTC One. The image is of the One X but the One has the same issue. It's not as common thse days but some apps still brings it up.
Edit: Things I didn't bring up and why.
Screen - Both are excellent and has their pros and cons. The Galaxy S 4 has a bigger screen with much better blacks, while the One has better whites and is brighter.
Skin - TouchWiz vs Sense is just personal preference so you can't compare them objecivly. You can also change them with third party launchers and even ROMs.
