At 5 inches, this screen also pumps 441 ppi, adhering to the standard that weve been enjoying for quite some time now. Though Quad HD is the new fad these days, HTC seems to understand that it could hurt battery life, and preferred not to risk that happening bb bold9790
their current flagship. That being said, youd be hard pressed to notice much of a difference at this screen size. Colors still look quite rich, though the blacks on this Super LCD3 screen might fall short of the contrasts found on AMOLED panels.

At least this review unit shows a warmer display than previously observed in HTC One devices, which isnt a negative, but rather just a detail worth mentioning.

Keeping the display size at 5 inches was a good choice, as its narrowness makes up for the additional real estate found at the top and bottom of the device. Text looks as sharp as it should, and media consumption and gaming are a blast on this display. Perhaps one day we will get an HTC device bb bold9790
a QHD display, but for now HTC appears to be more focused user experience, and not abbb bold9790 the raw specifications.

Considering how nicely the display continues to perform at these specifications, were not complaining. In the case of the One M9, under the hood youll find a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor, clocked at 2 GHz, backed by an Adreno 430 GPU and 3 GB of RAM for graphics and multi-tasking.

As you would expect from the latest and greatest, the HTC One M9 packs a lot of power and speed.

As good as the processing package may be, a contributing factor allowing for this performance is the latest iteration of the HTC Sense UI. Even though the Snapdragon 810 has received some flak since its availability bb bold9790
the LG G Flex 2, the HTC One M9 does well to showcase its power bb bold9790
a software experience that is spartan enough to consistently perform. Transitions in and bb bold9790 of the general interface are smooth, and a noticeable shortening of certain animations further lends to the flying speed of this next iteration of the interface.

Android 5. 0 Lollipop.

One aspect of this processor that has received a lot of criticism lately is something that has to be addressed.

I dont perform a lot of heavy benchmark tests anymore, instead giving more importance to the day to day experience, but new reports have suggested that the device tends to get really hot during such tests. This obviously hasnt been the case for me, but it has to be said that the phone does get very warm under certain kinds of load, such as when gaming for extended periods of time, or when using the phone bb bold9790
a turbo charger.

It may not have been enough to put the phone down in discomfort, but it is still quite noticeable. Hardware takes on a pretty similar bb bold9790look as found in previous iterations, bb bold9790
the media consumption experience still taking center stage, bb bold9790
32GB of storage built in that can be further expanded up to 128GB. As mentioned above, the BoomSound speakers return but this time are backed by Dolby enhancements, which can be easily found in the setting screen.

Original software bb bold9790

A simple tap of the option will change the mode from Theater to Music and back, allowing for a bit of an equalizer effect that can bring bb bold9790 better sound, depending on what youre doing.

This front-facing speaker combination still stands as one of the best bb bold9790 there for everything from music and videos to gaming, and it is still quite surprising that not a lot of other OEMs are jumping on this bandwagon. The speakers even work well for speakerphone calls, and the call quality is still as good as it should be, bb bold9790
no dropped calls or complaints on either side during a call, while on the T-Mobile network.

It has to be mentioned that this is an international model of the One M9 and as such, Ive not been able to use LTE bb bold9790
it. HSPA+ has been very reliable though as the type of 4G connectivity Ive been using, but it is something to watch bb bold9790 for, especially when it comes to picking up an unlocked international version. The only real bit of plastic still available on the One M9 is up top and it houses the IR blaster, serving as a remote controller for TVs and set-top boxes.

The One M9 does make for a pretty cool remote, as you can also get a quick glance as to what else is on via the TV application. Turning on the phone from the prone position can still be done using the Motion Launch gestures, which detect the phone being brought up first, after which you can double tap the screen to wake, swipe a number of ways for other functions, or hit the volume down button to quickly get to the camera.

Finally, an embedded 2,840 mAh battery brings bb bold9790
it a somewhat above average battery life to the phone. Typical day to day moderate usage makes the phone last up to a day and a half bb bold9790
ease, though the power user will likely have to take advantage of the power saving modes and the fast charging capabilities that come bb bold9790
it. As an example, bb bold9790
a day that was full of gaming and picture taking, the battery died just past the 10 hour mark. Basically, were still looking for a better bb bold9790look in the battery life department, and it seems fast charging is the consolation prize well be given until that time comes.

The camera has always been a big point of contention when it comes to the HTC One series since its inception, but this time around, Ultrapixels and their claims of good low light performance are now relegated to the front of the device, to serve as an enhancement when it comes to taking self-portraits.

Not surprisingly, this is a great move on the part of HTC, bb bold9790
this camera fitting perfectly into its new role. Even bb bold9790
bb bold9790 the use of a flash to fill in the darkness, this front-facing unit works better than the competition for getting good shots in poorly lit situations. Of course, the real story here is the 20. 7 MP optics that is now found at the back of the phone.

Starting bb bold9790
the camera software, youll find quite a few different options here including split capture and photo booth that return from the Desire line, which are a couple fun ways of capturing memories.

If you actually miss the Duo Camera for its depth of field capabilities, a Bokeh mode tries to alleviate this by using the more conventional method of taking multiple shots of the same scene in order to make the subject pop.
