Bamford: Elegant unibody, combines some features of M7 and M8.
Ben Fox Rubin 3/1/2015 3:14:12 PM
Bamford: Machined phone from a solid block of aluminum.
Andrew Hoyle 3/1/2015 3:14:13 PM
Ben Fox Rubin 3/1/2015 3:14:22 PM
Bamford: Inside is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 810.
Andrew Hoyle 3/1/2015 3:14:29 PM
Ben Fox Rubin 3/1/2015 3:14:38 PM
The 810 is Qualcomm's newest high-end processor.
Andrew Hoyle 3/1/2015 3:14:43 PM
Ben Fox Rubin 3/1/2015 3:14:50 PM
That new processor could give the new phone a little more computing power. The 810 is also used in the LG G Flex 2 and Xiaomi’s new Mi Note Pro phablet.
Ben Fox Rubin 3/1/2015 3:15:11 PM
Bamford: 20 megapixel camera on the back.
Andrew Hoyle 3/1/2015 3:15:19 PM
Ben Fox Rubin 3/1/2015 3:15:29 PM
Bamford: You'll think it was shot with an SLR.
Ben Fox Rubin 3/1/2015 3:16:03 PM
Bamford: HTC One gallery brings together photos in Facebook, Google, etc. all in one place.
Andrew Hoyle 3/1/2015 3:16:10 PM
Previous One phones used 4-Ultrapixel cameras -- these apparently used larger pixels which let in more light. Looking forward to seeing how a regular megapixel camera compares.
Ben Fox Rubin 3/1/2015 3:16:19 PM
Bamford: Also new and improved photo editor. Can do double exposure.
Ben Fox Rubin 3/1/2015 3:16:37 PM
Bamford: Super wide angle lens for front camera for great selfies.
Andrew Hoyle 3/1/2015 3:16:38 PM
Ben Fox Rubin 3/1/2015 3:16:51 PM
Bamford: Best camera for selfies and video calls on the go.
Andrew Hoyle 3/1/2015 3:17:17 PM
Meow!
Ben Fox Rubin 3/1/2015 3:17:28 PM
Bamford: Said Sense 7 -- HTC's Android skin -- will personalize the phone to you.
Ben Fox Rubin 3/1/2015 3:17:38 PM
Bamford: Can set personal sense of style.
Andrew Hoyle 3/1/2015 3:18:01 PM
Ben Fox Rubin 3/1/2015 3:18:01 PM

Ben Fox Rubin 3/1/2015 3:18:14 PM
Bamford: Sense can recommend restaurants in new neighborhoods.
Andrew Hoyle 3/1/2015 3:18:16 PM
Ben Fox Rubin 3/1/2015 3:18:46 PM
Bamford: First-class audio experience with its "BoomSound."
Andrew Hoyle 3/1/2015 3:19:05 PM
By putting the speakers on the front, the sound is directed towards you -- no more muffling when you lay your phone down flat.
Ben Fox Rubin 3/1/2015 3:19:38 PM
Bamford: Can listen to music and videos with a quick swipe to TV.
Andrew Hoyle 3/1/2015 3:19:39 PM
