HTC One is an incredible Android cellphone released in February 2013, equipped with a 4.7 inches screen, a great 1700 MHz Quad-Core CPU, a 4 megapixels back-facing camera and a 2.1 MP front side camera.

This phone feels much lighter than what you expect from a cellphone this size. Whereas this phone is quite thin it's not so slim as many other cellphones nowadays, with a thickness of 0.41 inches. This phone is quite a compact phone, given that it features a 4.7" screen and it only has 5.43" long and 2.69" wide. This cellphone is offerred in 3 color options, black, red and white.

The HTC One includes a high-tech 1920 x 1080 (Full HD) 4.7-inches screen, which makes it impossible to even distinguish the pixels in the screen. This screen uses S-LCD 3 capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch gestures.

HTC equipped the HTC One with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 APQ8064T chip, which holds a high performance 1700 MHz Quad-Core CPU and a great 2 GB of RAM memory. Graphic intensive games and apps usually eats lots of processing power, so this cellphone also has a 400 MHz Adreno 320 graphic processing unit to improve overall performance. A good advantage of this device is its huge 64 GB internal storage memory and while it doesn't include a slot for external memory cards, it it is more than enough to store hundreds of apps without even thinking about filling the phone.

This phone features Wi-Fi connectivity (and it can be shared with other devices as a mobile hotspot), LTE (4G) high speed data connection and the fastest 3G connection type, supported by HSPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. The HTC One has dual SIM cards to be able to to use two different phone numbers and even different carriers and it works with both CDMA and GSM.

This cellphone is equipped with two cameras, a 4 MP back camera and a 2.1 mega-pixels front facing camera. this device's back camera has a maximum f/2 aperture so it can take awesome photographs even in low lighting conditions. It is also able to capture 1920x1080 Full HD videos at 30 frames per second, and slow-motion videos in 768x432 up to 96 fps (3.2 times slower ).

This device packs a 2300 mAh amazing Li-Polymer non-replaceable battery that can keep it running for several hours, although you may need to charge it if you use it heavily. According to HTC, this device has a reported stand by time of 461 hs and a talk time of 18 hs. An issue to take into consideration is that this phone's battery is non-removable so you can't buy a new battery when it begins to live shorter, though with its 2300 mAh you will probably discard this phone before that happens.

This cellphone is priced about $ 174, which is quite expensive for this type of cellphone. If you want this cellphone to take lots of pictures, will use this cellphone mainly for social networks, want a cellphone for gaming or are looking for a work cellphone, this phone is definitely a good choice .
