HTC One M9

Taking up the mantle as HTC's flagship phone in 2015, the HTC One M9 has a lot to live up to.

Beautifully crafted and well-designed ; Speedy processor ; Sense Home works brilliantly ; Great front-facing camera ; Best speakers you can find on a phone

Aesthetic changes not an improvement ; Rear camera not as good as the competition ; Some software niggles

HTC One M9 review

A luxury design that forgets about the basics

Premium design ; Strong camera

Pricey ; Battery not good enough ; Too few improvements from M8

A great phone if you're upgrading from two years ago, but doesn't deliver enough changes to be worthy of a perfect score.

HTC One M9 review

Evolution in the air, as HTC opts not to mess with a successful formula

Sharp screen ; Well-judged colour balance ; Enthusiastic audio performance ; High-res audio support ; Fast and responsive ; Great, customisable user interface ; Nice build

Poor battery life ; Camera struggles against competitors ; Contrast could be better ; Sound needs more refinement

HTC pleases, but no longer leads the pack

HTC One M9 review

A stunning design with oodles of power inside – but has HTC forgotten about the basics again?

Sleek design ; Cool theme generator ; Improved sound

Battery isn’t great ; Camera rather average ; a little on the pricey side

HTC One M9 review: Distracted by refinement

The HTC One M9 is, in every sense, an evolution of the flagship M8 smartphone that came before it. It offers a similar design, a similar feature set, similar specs and a similar user experience. The HTC One M9 is the third iteration of the HTC One,...

Build quality, BoomSound, great user interface, good front camera

Feels a little incremental, rear camera performance, in some areas there's no progression over the phone it replaces

The HTC One M9 is the third iteration of the HTC One, coming from strong stock: we loved the M7 and the M8, with both devices delivering premium build and a metal body that was unmatched. However, while the HTC One M9 offers plenty to love, it doesn't...

HTC One M9 review

Updated with hands-on video: HTC has chosen the path of evolution for the next-gen One, but is that enough to make it the new pick of the Androids?

One of the classiest phones available ; Loads of power ; Very nice screen ; The best front camera around ; Rear camera takes great shots in the right circumstances ; Likeable, customisable UI

Battery life could be better ; Getting the best photos takes a bit of effort

It’s more evolution than revolution, but that still equates to the finest phone around – at least for now

Samsung Galaxy S6 vs HTC One M9 comparison review

Samsung and HTC both unveiled their new flagship smartphones for 2015 on the same day at MWC, but which is best? We compare the price, design, build, specs, hardware and software in our Samsung Galaxy S6 vs HTC One M9 comparison review to find out....

HTC has launched some of the prettiest Android phones, but Samsung has turned things around with its slender all metal and glass, Quad HD Samsung Galaxy S6. With a better screen and camera plus extras such as a fingerprint scanner, heart-rate monitor...

HTC One M9 review: A gorgeous Android phone with a touch of déjà vu

HTC's One M9 keeps its beautiful metal design and adds some updated internals, but it feels a bit too familiar in an increasingly cutting-edge mobile phone market.

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...

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 it doesn't exceed the competition where it counts.

HTC One M9 review: A gorgeous Android phone for 2015

Announced at MWC 2015, the HTC One M9 is the Taiwanese firm's flagship smartphone for 2015. It was announced on the same day as the Samsung Galaxy S6 which is one of its main rivals - at least until LG and Sony unveil their new premium handsets.

The HTC One M9 is a genuinely desirable smartphone with the best design and build available in Android land, even with Samsung upping the ante. It's good to see the powerful Snapdragon 810 and more memory, however, some key hardware remains the same...
