HTC One S9 Review

Score: 69.7 / 100

HTC One S9 is a very complete phone launched back in the year 2016, which counts with a good size 5 inches screen, a high speed Octa-Core CPU running at 2 GHz, and two cameras, a 13 MP back-facing camera and a 4 megapixels front camera.

This time, it seems like HTC forgot about optimizing the weight in this 5.57 ounces cellphone. Although this cellphone is just 5.69" long and 2.74" wide, it is able to fit a a 5" screen. This device's thickness of 0.4" is quite far from nowadays standards, but it still feels in the user's hand. About its materials, this cellphone is mostly made of Aluminum . This phone is only available in 16 777 216 color.

HTC equipped this phone with a great 5-inches display, and a 1080 x 1920 (Full HD) resolution, making everything look amazing.

HTC decided to build the HTC One S9 using an extremely fast Octa-Core CPU clocking at 2 GHz, bundled in the MediaTek Helio X10 MT6795 system chip with a great 2 GB of RAM memory. This cellphone has a quite large 16 GB internal storage and an SD memory card expansion slot, which allows the user to store a couple hundred games and applications without any trouble.

The HTC One S9 is equipped with two cameras, a 13 MP back-facing camera and a 4 mega-pixels front side camera. It can also shoot videos in Full HD 1920x1080 at 30 fps, and slow motion videos in (HD) (1280x720) at 120 fps.

This cellphone features Wi-Fi connection (although it can't be shared with other devices around, as a mobile mobile hotspot), 4G (LTE) high performance connection type and the fastest 3G data connection, using HSPA technologies. The HTC One S9 works with a Nano SIM card for GSM networks.

This phone features a 2840 mAh big capacity Li - Ion non-replaceable battery that can keep this cellphone running for many hours without charging it at all. An issue to consider is that this cellphone's battery isn't replaceable so you can't change it when it starts to have trouble holding its charge, though with this big battery you will probably discard this phone before it happens.

This device also comes with a couple nice features such as Near Field Communication (NFC), Bluetooth (4.1 ) and GPS, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

It doesn't matter whether you are an amateur photographer, are looking for a device to play games, will use it as a work phone or want a cellphone majorly for internet broswing and social networks, you will definitely be very pleased with it.
