Sleek, premium frame, Fast, convenient fingerprint sensor, Good cameras and editing app
Below-average performance
There are many things to love about the HTC One A9: Its great cameras, beautiful, if too-familiar design, convenient fingerprint sensor and relatively low price of $400. But it lacks the multitasking prowess of other phones in this price range. Also, if y...
Lovely looking, premium casing. Fingerprint scanner works well. Fairly clean Android 6.0. Much improved rear camera for an HTC
We'd like the phone a lot better were it not for the premium price tag. Looks too much like the iPhone. Battery life is mediocre
The HTC One A9 is an easy phone to like at the pre-order price of $399, though we wouldn't call it a bargain. At the Nov. 7 release price of $499 (more at some carriers), it's hard to recommend as a wise buy when there are even better phones available at...

If you saw the announcement for the HTC One A9 (I can't blame you if you decided to pass on it) then you know how desperate HTC is. They called out Apple for taking Zoe and calling it Live Photos and for stealing their design. They claimed “we invented...
Some of the best-built quality of any Android phone, Amazing AMOLED display, Android 6.0 Marshmallow out of the box, Sense 7.0 for a light skin with lots of features, Super fast and accurate fingerprint scanner, Amazing audio output, Excellent photo and v
Looks more like an iPhone than an HTC phone, Mediocre camera in all but sunlight, High relative price for the specs, Only a single speaker, not stereo BoomSound speakers, Metal build can be super slippery, Final Thoughts, The HTC One A9 is one incredibly
The HTC One A9 is one incredibly good phone. It feels good in the hand, performs well in most situations and looks great too. There's tons of software features here including the fact that it's running the latest version of Android, Android 6.0 Marshma...
Design is symmetrical and accessible, AMOLED display is good to see, Quick Charge 3.0 incoming thanks to Snapdragon 617, Fingerprint reader works quite well, Camera is conventionally good, UltraPixel front-facing shooter, Marshmallow out of the box, with
Design incredibly derivative, Despite AMOLED, display is very standard, Lacking in performance speed, Fingerprint reader throws a wrench in plenty of other well-known HTC features, No BoomSound speakers, Battery doesn't last long at all
HTC's One A9 brings a lot to the table. With a hugely-improved camera, slimmed-down software experience and fast fingerprint sensor, the One A9 actually finds itself going up against some of the best of the best. But that doesn't mean this device comes wi...

Respectable performance, Impeccable build quality, Ships with Android 6.0, HTC's Sense UI is even leaner now
The design looks very familiar, Middling camera, BoomSound speakers are gone, The alluring price tag is temporary
After the One M9 failed to find its footing, HTC cooked up a sequel with a new but derivative look. It's a well-built device and is one of the first to ship with Google's latest version of Android, but some of the One series' hallmark features are nowher...

Sleek metal design, Fast and responsive fingerprint sensor, Runs Android 6.0 Marshmallow smoothly with 3GB of RAM, Pro camera mode that shoots RAW files
Average cameras with poor lowlight, HTC's Sense 7 skin needs to go, Weak battery life, Screen is tough to see outdoors, Nexus 6P is a better buy for $500
Abstract: There's been a lot going on in the smartphone world lately, from Google's first launch of a dual-Nexus future to HTC trying to rekindle the romance the smartphone industry used to have with its gorgeous build quality. The HTC One A9 is a mid-range device...
Abstract: "Pick your battles" is good advice, especially when you're a minnow among sharks, but the HTC One A9 seems determined to fight on all fronts. You'd think the company's newest hero phone would have enough going on just trying to convince us that a flagship...
Essentially an Android iPhone, comes with Android 6.0 Marshmallow, largely (but not totally) free of vendor clutter, excellent audio via headphones, fine camera with good controls, long battery life, for a short time, a comparatively low price
Phone speakers are just adequate, not a completely pure version of Android, price goes up $100 after November 7th
If you're suffering from iPhone envy but are tied to the Android world (and want to save $150 besides), the HTC One A9 is your ride. But even if you couldn't care less about Apple, you'll still want to lay hands on this phone, which has put HTC back in th...
