Refinement, not revolution. HTC took what was undoubtedly a handsome, capable phone in last year's M8, and thoughtfully polished away the rough edges. Few would have said that the M8 was lacking in build-quality, but the One M9 is prettier; complaints abo...
Abstract: It's easy to call the HTC One M9 the best smartphone HTC has ever built; HTC outdoes itself each and every year, as we have come to expect, and the M9 is better than its predecessor in nearly every way. It's also easy to call the HTC One M9 the most impor...
Overall, the One M9 is a pretty significant device for HTC and really sets the tone for the entire year, so it's well worth going over everything again before we draw any conclusions about the One M9. However, any of these initial thoughts will be limited...
The HTC One M9 inherits its predecessor's stunning metal design and strong speakers, and has a bright, sharp display. It runs the latest version of Android, and the new Sense 7 software is simple, responsive and highly customisable. It's one of the few fl
The M9's camera quality and battery life don't measure up to its competitors. For better or worse, the phone feels like a rerun of last year's HTC One
The updated HTC One M9 packs speed and software improvements into a handset that remains lustworthy in middle age. But the competition grows increasingly daunting....

Great design, Speedy performance, Solid battery life
Disappointing camera, Power button too close to volume keys
More times than not, the Verge score is based on the average of the subscores below. However, since this is a non-weighted average, we reserve the right to tweak the overall score if we feel it doesn't reflect our overall assessment and price of the produ...
Still one of the best designed phones, especially premium, Plenty of customizable options with Sense 7.0, Snappy processing performance, Brilliant sounding speakers, Excellent call quality, Expandable storage
Disappointing low light performance with its camera, Focus adjustment with video recording is jumpy, Screen with inaccurate color reproduction
One year, that's the typical cycle a company needs in order to make the necessary adjustments in making a new phone better than the previous one. As we take a look at the bigger picture, we certainly can agree that the HTC One M9, as a whole, has been twe...

Exceptional hardware design and construction, Outstanding audio quality, Best, most customizable HTC Sense version yet, Smooth performance
Underwhelming camera, Iterative design with some reused components, Not as comfortable to hold, use as One M8, Some software features not fully baked,
Back to high school for a second. I ended up following my Chief's instructions: we attended the drill competition using a small variation on the same routine we'd trotted out for many years, and it worked out just fine. No one stepped out of formation,...

HTC has nailed the design once again with beautiful twotone metal. The Snapdragon 810 is so powerful it's sometimes unnecessary. Sense 7.0 is one of the best Android skins out there. Great selfie camera.
The rear camera is a huge upgrade on its predecessor, but it falls behind other top end smartphones. Display and battery life, largely unchanged from the M8, are now average for a modern flagship.

Great performance, Top-tier build quality, Sense 7 is lightweight and thoughtful, Quick charging works well
Main camera is lackluster, Screen isn't as vivid as last year's model, BoomSound speakers lack some oomph, Battery lifeishit-or-miss
HTC's 2015 flagship was designed to feel more premium than previous models, but it runs the risk of feeling dated two years on. It's sturdy and plenty powerful with its Snapdragon 810 chipset, but the M9's 20-megapixel camera doesn't seem any better than...
With the release HTC One M9, the Taiwanese manufacturer played it safe this year with this highly elegant but unsurprising device. The camera has been improved with a 20.7 Mp sensor and 4K video, however we still need to compare it to the best camera phon...
