We’re not sure whether the recently released HTC One follows the design of iPhone 6, but the combination of smooth back with two narrow antenna lines, arc sides and 2.5D screen exactly makes the new smartphone look like an Android version of iPhone.
HTC One A9 is a mid-range, large-screen smartphone that runs Android 6.0 Marshmallow OS with HTC Sense. The Android phone measures 145.75 x 70.8 x 7.26mm, weights 143g, and as we can see from the images, the One A9 shows off an ultra slim design with an ultra-narrow bezel, and its all metal unibody delivers a durable construction, meanwhile, its 5 optional colors allow it to match different senses of style.
HTC One A9 is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 617 64-bit octa-core processor and comes with 2GB/3GB RAM, 16GB/32GB internal storage and microSD card slot supporting up to 2TB. Both setups allow the phone to smoothly run various apps and games and play your favorite videos. Of course, the combo of 3GB RAM and 32GB ROM provides you a smoother multi-tasking experience.
With a 13MP rear camera with OIS, BSI sensor, f/2.0 aperture and sapphire cover lens, the Android phone delivers you high-quality photos and 1080p videos, and its Pro mode allows you to adjust settings like manual focus and exposure values and save your phone in RAW format. Moreover, its UltraPixel front camera with fixed focus and f/2.0 aperture lets you take better selfies.
Furthermore, the smartphone has a 5.0″ Full HD 1080p display plus Dolby Audio Surround, built-in DAC and high-output amplifier for a comfortable mobile entertaining experience. In addition, other specs also include Bluetooth 4.1, nano SIM and 2150mAh rechargeable battery.
HTC One A9 is available in four colors, each is priced at $399.99 USD. If you like the iPhone-like design, jump to HTC for its more details.
“HTC’s message with the One A9 has to be “we see your expensive smartphones, and we think we can do it at less cost without compromising on performance or design”, and if it is, that message remains loud and clear.” Ausdroid
But price for 16/2gb in Europe is too high. American 32/3gb version is much cheaper…something went wrong….it would be shame that A9 meets the destiny of alpha.
