The editors didn't like

  • No screen improvement
  •  HTC Sense 7.0 is too overbearing
  • Too similar to last year's model
  • As nice as the design is
  • We'd like to have seen more –– it feels very 2014 after seeing the Galaxy S6 EDGE
  • Display lags behind the competition
  • Camera needs work
  • Very high price point for what's on offer compared to Galaxy Note 4 and Google Nexus 6
  • Heats up often
  • Which can be frustrating
  • Camera pales in comparison to highend competition
  • Battery life
  • Positioning of side buttons
  • Mistyping and restricted handling
  • Weaker performance (not crippling but discernible)
  • What does it really add to a One
  • Inconsistent camera
  • Disappointing battery life
  • Battery isn't great
  • Camera rather average
  • A little on the pricey side
  • Poor early camera
  • Minimal evolution from M8
  • Feels a little incremental
  • Rear camera performance
  • In some areas there's no progression over the phone it replaces
  • Poor battery life
  • Camera struggles against competitors
  • Contrast could be better
  • Sound needs more refinement
  • 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
  • Average battery life
  • Same screen as the One M8
  • Aesthetic changes not an improvement
  • Rear camera not as good as the competition
  • Some software niggles
  • Average camera
  • Not much has changed
  • Battery life could be better
  • Getting the best photos takes a bit of effort
  • Overheating issue
  • Camera usage in lowlight conditions dodgy
  • Water and dust proofing would be nice
  • Power/volume buttons awkward to press
  • Annoying bezel and ledge on the edges
  • Just an average camera
  • Not waterproof
  • Not cheap
  • Little reason to upgrade if you have M8
  • No truly unique selling point
  • 1080p display might soon be bettered

  • Abstract:  The new HTC One M9 has arrived but Sony's Xperia Z4 won't land until later this year. Until then, the firm's flagship phone remains the Xperia Z3 , but can the six month old device match up to HTC's new stunner? Find out in our HTC One M9 vs Sony Xperia Z...

  • The HTC One M9 isn't a bad smartphone. It's elegant, well-built and doesn't have any major problems. That said, what does the M9 offer to convince an M8 owner—or anyone else, for that matter—to part with their cash? On paper: raw, unadulterated power and ...

  • Abstract:  A lot of people have gone to a lot of effort to hate on this phone, but it's not bad at all. It may have not upgraded like the S6 did from the S5, but I can tell you that that was needed for it to be in competition with the M9. It may not also have the us...

  • When it comes down to it, there are a lot of incredible smartphones on the market right now. It's really hard to know which one to buy. Nearly all the Android flagship phones are powered by the same processor, have similar camera sensors, and screen reso...

  • If the iPhone 6 is the Mercedes-Benz of smartphones, the HTC One M9 is its BMW rival. It is classy, distinctive and powerful. And while it feels slightly heavier than its current generation rivals, it has substance and grips reassuringly in your hand. It ...

  • The One M9 is a striking and attractive design, and I'm glad it hasn't changed it substantially. But it's a brutally competitive market and HTC can't count on Apple and Samsung's complacency any more: both leaders have raised their game. Hopefully HTC can...

  • When you consider some of the devices that are newly released and the ones that will be turning up in the next few months, it feels that the M9 is in a bit of a quandary. With Samsung and LG set to release their next big blockbusters, which we'd predict w...
