Ultrapixel camera
Stunning screen
We always thought that HTC’s One X was cruelly overlooked - its beautiful curved unibody was far better looking than the cheapish Samsung Galaxy S3. HTC’s designers have excelled themselves again this year
The HTC One is gorgeous. A lovingly crafted metal slab almost identical in size to its predecessor
It’s cool to the touch

It's a tradeoff between design
Price or performance

No memory card slot

Alarm too simple
BlinkFeed limitations
All Android keyboards
Gets warm from heavy usage
As cool as the HTC One looks
There are a few design flaws its creators should be kicking themselves over. HTC’s decision to remove one of the standard control buttons (the multi-tasking tab) to make way for its logo below the screen is an odd one that’ll surprise longtime Android users - instead
You double tap the home button to switch apps.This
You get used to. More frustrating is HTC’s decis
No storage expansion
Camera suffers from noise
Blink Feed won't be for everyone
Camera could be better
BlinkFeed needs work
No memory slot
Battery life is unexceptional and the aluminium casing can be slippy in the hand
Brilliant design, Gorgeous display, Excellent battery life
Average Camera, Blinkfeed can't be disabled,
With hardware built like a luxury car and software that does it justice, there is no doubt that the HTC One is the best phone you can buy right now. Forthcoming competition from the Samsung Galaxy S4 might sway our opinion but as of now this is definit...

Those who have been reading my reviews and following me on Twitter would probably already know that I am not a big fan of Android and have always found Android smartphones to be unreliable. I have struggled to find an Android smartphone that could rival t...
Battery cannot be removed, Storage cannot be expanded, Gets a little warm when watching, movies and playing games
Overall, the One is a good phone from HTC, although the price is on the higher side. A few thousand rupees lesser and it would have been tough to beat. An alternative that you can consider is the Sony Xperia Z, which is retailing for Rs 38,500....
Abstract: HTC officially announced their latest flagship smartphone – the HTC One in India on April 8 2013. HTC One is the all metal powerful android device we all have been waiting for. Crafted with a distinct zero-gap aluminium unibody, the new HTC One introduces...
Priced at Rs 42,900 (~$780) in India, the HTC One will fall in the same bracket as the BlackBerry Z10 and the iPhone 5 when it lands on Indian shores by the end of April. In the US, it's available for $199 on a 2 year contract with AT&T and Sprint, and fo...
Stunning design, Sturdy build, Thoughtful speaker placement, Impressively sharp screen, Pleasant UI, Outstanding gaming performance, Featurepacked camera, OIS for video recording, Can work as a TV remote.
"UltraPixel" camera doesn't live up to the hype, Lock button position should have been more accessible, Expensive
The smartphone's 2300 mAh Li-polymer battery easily lasts for a day to day and a half under normal usage. In our video loop test, it managed to power the device for almost 10 hours. That's almost as good as the iPhone 5's battery performance. The HTC One...
The HTC One is priced at Rs 42,900 and will be available sometime at the end of the month. If you're interested, it's currently available in the grey market for about Rs 65,000. Although there's quite a lot to offer, the One is a little expensive for that...
Great looks and build quality, Sharp and balanced display, Best in class performance, Good call quality and battery life, Zoe is a neat feature, Very good audio playback
Camera shoots dull looking photos, Interface has limited customization, Expensive
The HTC One is a fantastic high-end smartphone that almost manages to do everything very well. The two places it falters is in terms of camera performance and limited customization options within the interface. For Rs. 42,900, we would advise you to wait ...
Good, Brilliant HD screen, Excellent build quality, Top of line performance, Decent battery back-up
Position of power button makes using it cumbersome, Pictures are grainy and lack detail at times
We have to say that the HTC One made us fall in love with it. It's the best Android phone we've used combining all available features, a brilliant HD screen and great build quality. The HTC One's UltraPixel camera was a mixed bag and while it takes great ...
