HTC One A9 - Hands On

We recently got our hands on the brand new HTC One A9, a surprisingly similar looking phone to a well known rival brand.

Has it done enough? Yes it has! It looks like a iPhone, has a nice camera (on paper at least), offers what looks to be a purer-than-ever Android experience and is well-priced. There's a lot to love in this A9 and I really hope it does well in the market.

HTC came up with this design language BEFORE the iphone 6 came out, if anything, Apple copied HTC.

It looks just like the HTC M7. Android 6.0, can't wait to get my hands on it.

Hi @kevin oriodan From the initial specs we have CPU as octa-core Snapdragon 617 and the RAM is either 2 or 3 GB depending on region.

I really appreciate HTC for putting FM radio and IR blasters in its phones, these should be basic features that we want to always carry with our smartphone. unlike Apple ignore these and want more of your money thru iTunes music buying.

You know that guy had a point. Everybody ALWAYS compares HTC phones to iPhone's

People who says it looks like an 6s, place your finger over m8's main camera. Looks similar to the a9, yes?

why cant evryone appriceate the smartphones we get nowadays, im 19 and this makes absolutely sense to me. I love all phones regardless of any trouble you see in it. Remember we use live in a time where smartphones weren't even thought off. Caring radios on our back's....now look at us with phones so small and thin, we can fit them in our pockets. Stop bashing these manufacturing company, as they constantly build and innovate new phones and technology's for us. I would like to we're one of u haters of any company, come with a phone that can top any of the phones out today. Show me prove me wrong, if so I'm the dumby. Your feelings will definitely be hurt if ur phone was bashed by the world's consumers. (I JUST WENT ON A

Nothing is better than iPhone in the world. You know why??? Android has bugs. I hate it. I had Samsung. Hate it. Always bug. Damn luv iPhone. Luv iPad. Luv iOS

[slduk]

[Jerz]

dear HTC nonsense fans, you've accused Samsung for "copying" the iphones design, well, looks like the jokes on you. because now HTC A9 looks like the galaxy and iphone fused together

[Uknown]

honestly HTC has gone downhill I'm currently using HTC ONE M8 and I'm just thinking of switching to Samsung
