HTC One max Review

16 GB     See other variants reviews Score: 69.6 / 100

HTC One max is a very complete Android phone launched in 2013, counting with a great Quad-Core processing unit clocking at 1.7 gigahertz, an enormous 5.9" multi touch capacitive display, and 2 cameras, a 4 megapixels back camera and a 2.1 MP front-facing camera. We will get a better understanding of this phone's characteristics when we get into more details.

Talking about its aspect, this cellphone is mostly built with Aluminium, which gives a top level look and high resistance. HTC didn't seem to put much effort to reduce weight in this 7.65 ounces cellphone. This device is just 6.48 inches long and 3.25 inches wide, but it still manages to hold a 5.9 inches display. The HTC One max is quite slim and practical, though it's not close to being one of the thinnest cellphones nowadays, with a thickness of 0.41".

HTC packed this cellphone with a completely amazing 5.9 inches screen, and a 1920 x 1080 (Full HD) resolution, providing this cellphone with a high level graphic quality. This screen uses S-LCD 3 capacitive technology, and can detect multiple fingers at the same time.

The HTC One max is equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 APQ8064T chip, packing an extremely fast Quad-Core processing unit clocking at 1700 MHz with a large 2 GB of RAM. Helping with graphic rendering, it also uses a 400 megahertz Adreno 320 graphics processing unit. This phone has a 16 GB quite big internal storage and an external memory card slot, allowing the user to store a couple hundred games and apps without any trouble.

This cellphone features WiFi connectivity (which can be provided to other devices as a mobile hotspot), 4G LTE great performance internet connection and also HSPA+ connectivity, a lower speed 4G technology and the fastest 3G connection type, supported by HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This device uses a Micro SIM card for GSM networks and it can connect to both CDMA and GSM carriers.

The HTC One max features two cameras, a 4 MP back camera and a 2.1 MP front camera. this phone's back camera has a f/2 aperture so it can take very nice photographs even in poor lighting situations. It can also capture videos up to 1920x1080 (Full HD) at 30 frames per second, and 1280x720 HD slow-motion videos at 60 fps (2 times slower than regular videos). Additionally, this phone's camera also includes a few good features like auto-focus, flash, HDR mode, digital image stabilization and geo tagging.

This cellphone also features a wide range of cool characteristics as Biometric fingerprint, NFC (to trigger actions, transfer data or make payments by holding your cellphone close to another NFC device or tag), Infrared Port, Bluetooth (allows communication with other cellphones, computers and accessories) and GPS, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

This device packs a huge 3300 mAh Li-Polymer non-removable battery, enough to provide this device with an incredibly long battery duration. HTC reports a 393 hs stand by time and a 28 hours talk time for this cellphone. An issue to take into consideration is that the HTC One max's battery is not removable so you can't buy a new battery when it begins to last shorter, although with so much capacity you will probably discard this device before it happens.

This phone is really overpriced considering it costs $ 329, and some similar phones are offerred way cheaper than that. This cellphone is definitely a very good choice for you it doesn't matter whether you want this cellphone for work, want a phone for playing games, need a device to mostly use social networks or want it to take lots of photos.
