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

Alarm too simple

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

Unconventional soft button configuration, lmaging quality is middling due to 4MP sensor, Average battery life, Display is hard to view under direct sunlight
Can the HTC One claim to be the best Android phone on the market at the moment?At the beginning of this review, we stated that the specifications list of the HTC One reads like someone putting together their dream smartphone. In practice, the HTC One live...
The most interesting part about the One Max is probably the fingerprint scanner, which is reminiscent of Apple's latest 5s and the first dualcore smartphone, the Motorola Atrix
HTC sadly skimped out on the One Max's processor. It doesn't have the latest Snapdragon 800 that is found in the LGs G2, Sony Xperia Z1 or Samsung Galaxy Note 3
The only way I think that the HTC One Max will do well is if it's priced much lower than its two competitors....
Super gorgeous design,LTE connectivity (on Globe),Facebook Home compatible
Soso battery life, Soso camera, Too hot to handle (40degrees)

Abstract: Beautiful. That's the first word that came into my mind after I held the HTC One. Yes folks, HTC One is the name of their flagship phone. It raised a lot of confusion because their former flagship was named as HTC One X. I really don't know why they didn'...
