HTC One A9 review: the Android iPhone
When the history of Android is written, HTC's name will go down as one of the early innovators that propelled the young platform to its fullest potential. This Taiwanese company built the first ever Android phone as well as the first Nexus.
Pros:
- Exquisite
- if unoriginal
- design
- Runs smooth as butter
- Fast and accurate fingerprint sensor
- Sounds great even without stereo speakers
Cons:
- Battery is only just adequate
- Camera still lags the competition
- Google's Nexuses offer much better value
- The ignominy of being an iPhone clone

HTC's all-metal One A9 has style, but its $500 price tag is much higher than the competition.

- Fingerprint sensor with Android Pay
- MicroSD card slot for expandable storage
- Nearly pure Android 6.0 Marshmallow
Cons:
- Weak processor
- Poor battery life
- $500 is too much

HTC One A9 – Review
A bit of history first, and perhaps a personal viewpoint from myself. Back in 2002 I handled my first HTC smartphone. It was branded up as an Orange SPV and it kick-started this entire website.

Let me be blunt. If I lost my iPhone a week ago and needed a new one, I would buy the HTC One A9. It looks great, and upon first glance , works pretty great, too. But I didn't lose my iPhone, and the A9 is now more expensive than I thought it was.
Pros:
- It's a very pretty phone
- It works ok, but mostly it's very pretty
Cons:
- The underperforming processor is noticeably deficient
- Android phones are famous for a little bit of lag, especially when laden with heavy skinning, but it's that much worse when trying to be an iPhone replacement
- Also, despite being better than its big brother, the camera has room for improvement

HTC One A9 review
HTC's latest premium phone is more than just an iPhone clone - it's easily the most solid built handset the company has made yet. While it does lack raw power compared to its M9 sibling, there are no BoomSound speakers and its camera does leave us wanting more, it's a solid performer and its...

HTC One A9 review
What happened to you, HTC? You used to be big and bright, the world your oyster, so to speak. But now you're sipping fifty cent beer at the corner dive, yelling at passersby about that time you were elected class president in 1987. I get it. It's hard sometimes. There are lots of other people...

(The One A9 was originally reviewed on October 27th, but we've republished this review due to the arrival of the handset in the US. ) We're used to only seeing one flagship smartphone come from HTC every year, but this year is different.
Pros:
- - Design is symmetrical and accessible - AMOLED display is good to see - Quick Charge 3.0 incoming thanks to Snapdragon 617 - Fingerprint reader works quite well - Camera is conventionally good - UltraPixel front-facing shooter - Marshmallow out of the box
- with Sense features we like
Cons:
- - Design incredibly derivative - Despite AMOLED
- display is very standard - Lacking in performance speed - Fingerprint reader throws a wrench in plenty of other well-known HTC features - No BoomSound speakers - Battery doesn't last long at all

Great phone; pleasantly surprised!
Had to check that the back of this phone said 'HTC'! Looks like an iPhone. No bad thing, but it's not that. Compared to my previous HTC 'flagships' - this feels much better. Great in the hand, smooth, solidly built and precisely so. Durable finish. Above all, it just works! Fast, smooth, reliable.

Good phone, but the seller ripped me off
Good phone, but the seller ripped me off. The audio jack did not work, the sim tray could not close and it had a bunch of scratches. I would not recommend anyone to buy from this seller.
