HTC One hands-on: First look

19 February 2013
Going by sales in the past year alone, it's easy to forget that HTC still makes some of the best hardware in the smartphone game. Despite the fact that it was the first to release a smartphone with a dual-core Krait chipset, the first to launch a...

      Looks like JiaYu G3 from last year but that's a good thing.

        Definitely an iPhone 5 and Z10 replica; but I guess the HTC One's body is aluminium, which may feel better than the Z10. I don't know what to say now, other than just wait for patents, haha. :P

              Wait, I thought the Snapdragon 600 was a dual core. And isn't it clocked at 1.9GHz, not 1.7GHz?

                looks so gorgeous! wish they put a microsd slot coz the 64gb should be insanely expenssive (doubt the 32gb would be cheap neither!),, wished they put a 3000mAh battery but guess 2300 isn't bad,, if HTC can manage a great battery life then this would be a contender for 2013 best seller, maybe even a head of experia Z,, wonder what samsung can put in GS4 to respond to this beauty, but they'd better do it fast!

                  And everyone should learn this about Bayer sensors(which Pureview also uses):
                  "Traditional sensors use a Bayer filter, so each pixels captures only a single color. This means a 13MP photo shot with a traditional sensor has 6.5 million green pixels and 3.25 million of red and blue each. The final image has three colors per pixels, but the missing values are interpolated (math is used to calculate their approximate values). "

                      the phone looks impressive.

                        wow now makes lumia, galaxy and xperia for a run... 13mp sensor will be useless for s4...its time that samsung is challenged by htc in terms of hardware... i think s4 may boost of 5" display and 3200mah battery..this launch will toss s4 to change specifications.. nokia, its better forget them they will launch lumia 1000 with 8mp and may be 4" outdated 720p display, 1000mah and claim
                        1, they are best at 2013
                        2. they reserved 41mp for year 2014
                        3.5" screen for 2015
                        4. 2000mah battery for 2016
                        5. 2017 will mark great era with total closure of nokia..
                        we hail u htc... but bit disappointing with battery and screen size..
                        i think its latest audio must be really amazing for a mobile..ir port to control home appliance does threaten sony...
                        hope it is dust and water proof...

                        i also wished it had gsm/cdma dual mode..(lenova is keen on developing an auto change mode mobile for indian operator reliance)
                        i think htc should challenge all company in marketing field.. one small suggestion is please offer 36 month warranty..with 12 month replaceable..u can be really challenging.
