Htc One M9 full review

The excellent HTC One M8 finally has a successor in the form of the HTC One M9.one of  new phones  2015 ,We can equally take in hand the unit and in this preliminary HTC One M9 review we take a look at everything that is new to the unit.

Design: as two drops of water

For the design of the HTC One M9 has his own words combined the best of the M7 and M8, The m9 has a rounder brushed aluminum and looks in our opinion better than the M7, but because the back is a lot smoother, he quickly slips out of your hands. The HTC One M9 is like his predecessors made from a single piece of anodized aluminum, but is more resistant to scratches and slightly sharper edges. Personally, we find the beautiful contours of the M8, but when holding the M9 have substantially more grip.

at first sight you see the design of the M9 a little like its predecessors. He is again in gold, silver and dark gray (with a gold edge) and the  differences between the fronts of the M9 and M8 is almost nothing. The screen size is the same with the m8 and the same thing for the placement of the Tree Sound speakers, which sound pretty loud again. At the top of the device is an infrared sensor available that helps you control your TV or set-top box. The power button, which previously was located on the top, it is moved to operate the right side and therefore it is more  easy to use.

We turn to the M9, especially attack the objective of the square camera, Unlike its predecessor, there is a current camera.

 HTC One M8 has an ultra-4 pixel camera and a corresponding 2-megapixel camera that can be used to define stereotypes strongly thereafter, the ultra-pixel camera of the HTC M9 is moved forward, and the new is that the M9 improved the  camera on the back to 20 megapixel (more on that later). For the rest, the back is quite similar, the dual LED flash, plastic lines and the HTC logo are in the exact same location.

Screen and hardware: ready for the future

The screen of the HTC One M9 measures 5 inches and has a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. HTC has not chosen to equip the device with a larger screen and a higher screen resolution and that is what we are concerned only good news. The unit is still good when using it with only one hand and you don't feel that you run out of room. The viewing angles, color reproduction and sharpness are very good,

for the battery the HTC M9 have a large battery of 2840 mah and again has an excelent battery life, During our test review of the HTC ONE M9 , we haven't tested it thoroughly, but when swiping through the interface and start the camera and various apps there's no noticeable delays. with the Snapdragon 810 chip and 3GB of RAM the device is powerful enough to run multiple processes simultaneously .

The Snapdragon 810 is a octacore processor, which means he has eight cores. The chip has four cores that are used to perform light tasks, such as when you send a message via WhatsApp, and four cores that are intended specifically for heavy tasks, such as playing 3D games, shooting 4K videos. This is already happening in many other chips, but the system has been improved with the Snapdragon 810.

Furthermore, the M9 have 32GB storage that can be expanded up to 128 GB with a memory card.

 And the Dolby technology   that HTC uses should ensure that the sound from both the Tree Sound speakers and headphones will sound fuller and more powerful, though we have not been able to test this properly.

Software: slim and supple

However, the updated software of the HTC ONE M9 have expanded to take in hand. The device runs on Android 5.0 standard Lollipop with Sense 7.0 software skin . You can choose from a number of pre-installed themes, but also create one based on photos that you have made. The device is adapted  to your home screen and lock screen and look at the color palette of the picture. You can  applied this colors in the theme, so your background is in accordance with the colors and icons of the interface.

the  Sense 7.0 software skin  make the m9 more  smarter. also the social homescreen Blink Feed doesn't shows  only interesting messages from media that you follow, but also photos of locations where you've been and restaurants in the area, based on information from Yelp and Foursquare.

The M9 also learns from your app usage. There is a useful widget that displays frequently used apps , and you can display  apps related to multimedia and  entertainment ,it is also possible to customize the list of apps as you want and that allow you to get access faster to your favorite apps.

Another nice new feature is One Gallery, a gallery that brings  all your pictures  together, including those of Google drive , facebook , Dropbox and  Flickr, And You can link these accounts to the gallery and  That way you know where a particular photo is available, but you also have the ability to search your entire photo library by keyword .

so at first glance the software of the HTC ONE M9 is clever. The interface works smoothly, Sense 7.0 focuses on unity and convenience numerous handy features (like the ability to customize the touch buttons below the screen) that's  really add something.

Camera: better selfies and customization

the camera of the M9 has a large number of options to shoot  perfect pictures. However, the camera app is simple to use. You can limit yourself to shoot in auto mode, but also have many customization options (white balance, exposure, ISO speed) at your disposal. At the front we find the four ultra-pixel camera that we know from the One M8, The main advantage of this camera is that it captures selfies   shoots in low light condition with good quality.

The same applies to 20-megapixel camera on the back, though we noticed during the review test that it focuses slightly faster and even in dark environments you can shoot pictures with lots of detail.

and  according to HTC the m9 run with  an algorithm that ensures that the exposure, sharpness and contrast are adjusted constantly for the perfect shoots.

The price of this one of new phones 2015 starting from $649 and is expected to be available on store on 25 march 2015.
