Still an immaculately well built handset, with added grip and more comfortable form over its predecessor, BoomSound remains a cut above, Options within Sense 7, THE
Inconsistent battery life, leaving more to be desired, Camera still not up to snuff with its competition, Not enough on offer to justify a hefty premium over the last generation
With the One M9, HTC had but a few points they knew they would need to address in order to make it a worthy successor to the One (M8). They knew they were onto a good thing with the design and build and managed to make improvements in all aspects of measu...
The HTC One M9 is a solid feeling phone, but has enough small problems that make it hard to say you should throw your money at it. The dual-metal design is completely confused, like it could decide if the front melted into the back or the other way around...

Beautiful Design, Fantastic Sound, SD Card expansion, OS is buttery smooth, It's GORGEOUS – I mean look at it
Camera could be better, Weird occasional lockups, Still a little slippery to hold
With every phone you come across you'll invariably find something that doesn't do something you don't exactly like. There still hasn't been a perfect phone invented yet, but we're getting close, and HTC is almost there. Sure the camera isn't as good as it...
‘If it ain't broke, don't fix it' is clearly the mantra that HTC has followed with the One M9 and with the high benchmark that its predecessor set, who could blame them? The scratch resistant coating, two-tone design and grippier feel are all welcome imp...
Abstract: HTC's dual-tone play on the One M9: top shelf, or just tarnished? Photo: Hannah FrancisUnless you get the new handset through Telstra, which has it in limited edition "gunmetal grey" , the One M9 chassis is a two-tone silver and rose-gold aluminium. I lik...
The HTC One M9 is an odd device. On paper it's barely an upgrade over the M8. In press photos it's physically almost identical, it has the same screen and resolution, even the new camera offers the same lacklustre experience. All this being said, there...

I had great hopes – I like HTC and I feel bad about giving this a less than stellar review. The phone is not bad but it is not really up to the Samsung S6/Edge either – yet it costs about the same. I used an M8 last year and was underwhelmed – this is not...

Abstract: HTC's One M9 sells itself as a premium luxury device, but the reality in day to day use is disappointing.Over at the ABC's Technology+Games portal, I've written up my experience with the HTC One M9, a phone that should have been an instant classic, but fa...
HTC came really close to making a flagship that's worth the AUD$1,099 asking price, but the average camera lets the One M9 down. You simply can't win the hearts of the Samsung-loyalists and Apple fanboys without a killer camera. It feels like HTC could h...

The HTC One M9 is a solid improvement over last year's model and will easily hold its own against the Android competition this year.The fact the One M9 has a microSD card slot as well as 32GB of internal memory may also sway people towards HTC if it comes...
