HTC One max – Is the camera lacking? We don’t think so

Yesterday we finally saw the official details for the HTC One max. A couple of items have already been pointed out, and the questions we’ve had so far are… – Where’s Beats Audio? Well, simply put. It ain’t there. BoomSound is, so you’re gonna get some rather potent …

HTC One max goes official – All the details

Well, a little earlier than planned, here’s the all-new HTC One max. It matches a lot of the leaks we’ve seen but now we can go all official with the specs. Put simply, it’s a phablet with a near-6″ screen and powerful quad-core 1.7GHz CPU. There’s a fingerprint …

Yet more HTC One Max specs for your collection

I’ll try not to mention it, but it’s “that” time of year soon. New handsets, like the HTC One Max are right around the corner. We’ve already seen specs but now there’s this, a photo of a screen. It’s taken from the Twitter feed of @stagueve and quotes …

Gold HTC One official… with a twist

Gold seems to be the new “in thing” at the moment. With Apple making a new gold iPhone 5S there could be a mad rush for manufacturers to start making phones in this colour. HTC have stepped forward with a very limited edition gold HTC One. When o …

They are at it again…. The good folks behind the twitter account @EVleaks has posted a picture of the smash HTC One handset in a rather beautiful blue colour. Thats it.  I could put the word developing here but there really is nothing to develop.  No word on where …

HTC One mini review

The HTC One is the best handset that HTC have made, in my opinion at least. Now they’ve shrunk it down, but only a little bit. Whilst writing this review I’ve shown this new HTC One mini handset to three HTC One owners and they’re all pretty impressed …

HTC One mini comparison photos

We’ve got a few precious days with the ever-so-slightly-smaller brother of the HTC One. Sure, the CPU, memory and storage on the HTC One mini is not quite as good as the bigger HTC One, but it’s still a gorgeous looking handset which packs the BoomSound technology, Beats …

Almost a week with the HTC One mini. Send me your questions!

Looking to get yourself the HTC One mini? Well, we’ve already got some up-close shots, but today a man in a van dropped off the handset so that we can have a bit of time with it. If you’re a long-time reader then you’ll probably remember something we’ve …

HTC One mini official picture appears.. almost

HTC are unveiling more and more of their HTC One Mini. It’s a trend we’re seeing with lots of mobile handsets, a powerful and hugely advertised handset (like the Galaxy S4 or the Galaxy S3 from Samsung) is followed up shortly after by a ever-so-slightly-less-powerful version which has …

HTC One Mini not mentioned by HTC in any way at all. Honest.

Ooo lookie here. HTC talking about something small? Something that’ll pack a “BIG PUNCH” ? That’s definitely nothing to do with the HTC One Mini we saw earlier or those pictures of a HTC One Mini or even these other leaked shots. Ohhh.. no. No way buddy. HTC …

HTC One receiving Android 4.2.2 update

Not much we can add to this really is there? The HTC One is getting an update delivered as we speak, although as usual you might have to wait a little if you got your phone direct from a network. Your phone should automatically check for this, however …

HTC One Mini in black leaks out

The HTC One is a cracking phone, I spent a few weeks with it recently and it really is the sort of phone that you would recommend to everyone. It’s just some people can’t afford one and some people don’t like rather large phones. What they need is …

HTC One. How’d you fancy a 24 Carat Gold version?

I know what you’re thinking. “What am I going to do with the 2 grand in my back pocket?” Well, you could get yourself one of these, a brand new HTC One plated in either Gold for £1895, Rose Gold for £1995 (don’t ask me the difference) or, …

Android App Review – Fitbit

There’s a new breed of human walking this Earth. The ever connected, technology addicted ‘smart’ person. We can answer phone calls and texts with our watches and glasses while our every move is collected and analysed by fitness experts. Much like Lewis Hamilton at Mercedes F1, we can …

So how would I make the HTC One better?

Install Windows Phone 8 on it of course. Before you all get cross I’m kidding here, yes I’d like a Windows Phone version of the HTC One but I doubt it would be better. Neowin have been tipped off by a source that HTC is currently working on …

HTC T6 to be called One Max, I guess Mega was taken!

The 6″ large phone market is heating up. There are no end of devices due to be released that all have a screen size around about 6″ and HTC are rumoured to be releasing something that will probably be better than the lot of them. Unless you like …

No microSD on the global HTC One due to radio size

As you’ll know, there’s no microSD expansion on the HTC One. Although there’s more than enough internal storage, news that the Chinese version actually does have a microSD card slot has annoyed some. So, HTC have been asked why this is. Many assumed it was a difference in …

One on a mountain top. Video call from Everest

A video call isn’t, despite what Apple might tell you, that special. I remember my mate showing me a 3G video call on the Three network a decade ago so being able to see the person you’re calling isn’t a big deal. Well, unless you’re on top of …

HTC One vs Galaxy S4 – Part 2

OK, I’ll admit it. Sometimes I make mistakes. I fess up, it was me who caused the break-up between Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston. Oh wait.. no, sorry. The Samsung Galaxy S4 vs HTC One video I did the other day… that’s it. That’s where the mistake was. …

HTC One vs Samsung Galaxy S4 – FIGHT!

The Galaxy S4 or the HTC One? Well, you’ll already have seen the Samsung Galaxy S4 review and our HTC One Review.  So, with Mark busy comparing the camera quality and reviewing the S4, I’ve decided to take some shots comparing the phones close-up. You’ll see below that …
