HTC One M9: Bring Your World to Life

The newest flagship in the globally acclaimed HTC One family, the HTC One M9 is a classic yet timeless celebration of beauty and elegance that combines high style and performance, enabling you to get the most from your mobile phone.

Chairwoman, Cher Wang, said: "HTC has built its reputation on challenging expectations in the mobile industry. The HTC One M9 accomplishes this once again with stunning elegance and design, combined with smart features that help bring your world to life, connecting you in a deeper way to the things you consider most important. So much more than just a phone, the HTC One M9 is an extension of who you are”.
  • Celebration of design. Building on a three-year pursuit of excellence, the HTC One M9 melds the best of the award-winning HTC One M7 and HTC One M8 into a stunning, iconic design. Distinct metal edges combine perfectly with graceful curves for a jewelry-grade look.

  • HTC Sense 7: An extension of you. Highly customizable and intuitively you, with the new HTC Sense 7 experience that comes with Themes that put you at the center of your smartphone experience, act as an always-on travel companion to enrich your mobile life, and an intelligent HTC BlinkFeed that makes it easier to uncover the hidden gems that surround you by using location data to recommend points of interest, news, and information .

  • Incredible imaging: Helping you create your best memories. With the best camera being the one you carry in your pocket, your smartphone should make it a breeze to take brilliant, creative and fun images.

  • 20MP front camera. The main camera features an incredible 20 megapixels that accentuate every crisp, intricate detail and a sapphire cover lens that protects from scratches. For vivid video that looks like the latest blockbuster, the camera also shoots movies in 4K resolution.

  • UltraPixel Front-Facing Camera. The ultimate companion of the impulsive snapper, the HTC One M9 addresses low-light shots with a powerful UltraPixel™ front-facing camera. Dynamic auto exposure and UltraPixels that capture 300% more light than standard cameras deliver sharper, more natural and balanced self-portraits in any lighting conditions.

  • Exhilarating audio: The next generation of HTC BoomSound. The HTC One family’s iconic dual front-facing speakers, now combined with 5.1 channel Dolby® Surround sound simulation, get you even closer to the action, delivering extraordinary, cinema-style surround sound. Uniting HTC BoomSound and Dolby Audio™ creates immersion vibrant audio experience, so you can enjoy movies with rich, clear and powerful sound even without connecting headphones or external speakers.


Accessories
For a standout look, the HTC One M9 will be available with a range of unique and customizable accessories including the second generation HTC Dot View case, which adds more retro personalization thanks to a host of new features and color options. A transparent back keeps your smartphone pristine without hiding it from the world with the case injecting fun into even the most tedious commute by transforming into a mini games arcade. The new HTC Dot View case won’t even get in the way of apps such as Instagram, Snapchat and Badoo with through-the-case notifications alerting you to the latest photos, messages and check-ins.

Availability
The HTC One M9 will be available globally in dual-tone silver and rose gold, single-tone gunmetal grey, single-tone gold and dual-tone gold and pink in from mid-March.

The HTC One M9 offers electronic image stabilization (EIS), which conserves internal component space vs. OIS. @swap002

So instead of OIS, we can have things like EIS + a larger battery. @swap002

Raza Rahil Hussain ‏@razarahil 2h2 hours ago
@urbanstrata one last question, Sense 7 support Lollipop camera api and can we edit RAW image in the phone?

‏@urbanstrata
@razarahil Not on the phone, however there's no technical limitation to this. It captures in RAW. Possible a third-party app could edit RAW.

I think M9 has to be seen in person to fully appreciate its elegance. This phone screams "premium," and that's tough to convey in photos.

@zmarof88 @MKBHD You wouldn't want QHD on a 5" display. It's overkill that sacrifices battery life.

Jeff Gordon @urbanstrata · 13h 13 hours ago
@Talal_Al_Ahmed On-screen buttons allow more flexibility. For example, in Sense 7 you can add/remove/change the order of the buttons.

@ikadmy @image_sense I misspoke. The area around the speaker grills is plastic. Everything else is metal. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

CPU Benchmarks
source: http://www.techspot.com/review/980-h...-m9/page5.html


Quote:









The Snapdragon 810 is undoubtedly a fast SoC. The HTC One M9 is a very speedy device around the OS and in apps, though I wouldn’t say it’s significantly faster than the already-fast Snapdragon 801 we saw in the One M8. Loading apps and multi-tasking feels extremely quick on this device, and there is loads of power for gaming on the 1080p display, so there shouldn’t be any complaints on the performance side.







Quote:









Anyway, the One M9’s implementation of the Snapdragon 810 either outperforms or matches the Samsung Exynos 5433 we saw in the Galaxy Note 4. As a refresher, the Exynos 5433 features the very same big.LITTLE octa-core as the Snapdragon 810, but clocked slightly lower on both core clusters. It’s not surprising to see the One M9 outperforming the Exynos Note 4 by a small margin, around 7% on average, which is slightly lower than the average difference in CPU clock speeds (15%).
As the Exynos 5433 outperforms the Snapdragon 805 in CPU-heavy tasks by 7%, it’s not surprising to see the Snapdragon 810 also outperform the Snapdragon 805, in all but Basemark OS II 2.0. The average margin comparing these two Qualcomm SoCs is 12% in favour of the Snapdragon 810. Compared to the One M8, the One M9 is 26% faster in CPU-bound tasks, which is a respectable gain on silicon released only a year ago.

NAND Benchmarks

The NAND performance of the HTC One M9 shows a significant increase in speeds compared to last-generation hardware, especially on the sequential and random write front. The performance of the internal storage in the M9 is approaching that of an SSD from a couple of years ago, which is impressive for such compact modules with limited power and bandwidth. Compared to the M8, the M9’s NAND is anywhere from two to six times as fast.












GPU Benchmarks

The Snapdragon 810’s Krait 430 is definitely overkill for playing current Android games at 1080p – the Snapdragon 810 is designed for 1440p displays – but let’s check out how it performs anyway.







Quote:









On average, the Adreno 430 clocked in at 8% faster than the Adreno 420 in offscreen benchmarks, which is a modest improvement and not nearly as high as what Qualcomm claims, but enough to put the GPU at the top of the charts.
There’s a much larger difference in GPU power going from the One M8’s Snapdragon 801 to the One M9’s Snapdragon 810. When shader bound, the Adreno 430 clocks in at 67% faster than the Adreno 330 on average, and 50% faster when other bottlenecks are factored in. This is a pretty significant jump, although a large portion of that performance gain can also be seen upgrading to an Adreno 420.















GPU Thermals

Above you can see a range of charts that illustrate how the One M9 throttles throughout repeated GFXBench runs. The M9 sustains maximum GPU performance for five minutes, after which the SoC reaches a temperature of 40C and GPU clock speeds are cut in half. When the SoC approaches 45C, GPU clocks are cut further, leading to sustained performance just over half of the maximum.
These results are far from the worst I've seen (though they're not the best either), and sustained performance matches the peak performance of the Snapdragon 801 in the HTC One M8. It should be noted that the temperature of the outside of the One M9 doesn't reach 45C: during my testing it topped out at 42C as measured by an external thermometer.

M9+
SIZE: 150.99 x 71.99 x 9.61mm
WEIGHT: 168g

M9
SIZE: 144.6 x 69.7 x 9.61 mm
WEIGHT: 157g
DISPLAY: 5.0 inch, Full HD 1080p





Despite the apparent pluses on the surface, the M9+ has weaker aspects compared to the M9:

4x weaker GPU yet the same 2840mAH battery running a 1.8x increase in LCD pixels and 0.2" increase

laughable against the M9 graphically, it's even weaker than the iPhone5s

M9+ Availability

We are excited to bring the HTC One M9+ to customers in China, where we have worked closely with mobile operators to create a phone with the right balance of screen size, processor performance, software, and radio network compatibility to meet consumers' needs.

The HTC One M9+ is currently available in China only and will be ranged in other markets, to be confirmed locally at a later date. Please follow your local country pages for availability information.

The One M9+ is not currently planned to be released in North America or Europe, where we believe our flagship, HTC One M9, is the best choice for blazing fast performance, incredible sound, and network compatibility across the broadest range of operators.

For more information on the HTC One M9+, including a full list of accessories, check out the product page: HTC One M9+ (China). (The product page will be live about 2 hours after this post is live; if you don't see it, please wait a little bit longer for our servers to catch up.)
