Even if I wouldn't call it worldclass. The new camera app is also just great

The editors didn't like
Meh selfie camera
Autofocus could be faster
Display not great in sunlight
Camera focusing can be finicky
Particularly in macro
Battery life inconsistent
Sometimes wildly so
Expensive SIMfree price
Refresh rate and color shifting issues on the display
Camera is so close to getting it right
But still not quite there
Some residual motion in walking movements
Noise on some color patches
Particularly green
Blue and cyan
Luminance noise visible in low light conditions
Occasional focus failure while panning (lens remains unfocused)
Trails S7 In Some CPU Tests
No Heartrate Sensor
Somewhat Pricey
No alwayson voice support
The camera is a little finicky and occasionally turns pictures gray

Not the most exciting design
Display could be a bit brighter

Speakers HTC talked a big game about these speakers
But they've categorically underdelivered. These compare favorably to the S7's speaker in a few select scenarios
But fall flat in most
And even my old Moto Nexus 6 stomps the new Boomsound setup. Pass
Comparatively high price
Slightly heavier than competing phones
Expensive
Does not come with headphones
Does not want me to ditch my iPhone 6s
The handset's non-removeable battery doesn't last as long as its competitors and its camera doesn't always render exposure correctly
No new innovative major features
Rear camera sometimes overexposes a little. Battery life is just OK
The primary camera leaves a little to be desired
Not as loaded with features as its closest rivals
Battery only average
Thick and heavy considering the display size
Lacks water and dust resistance
Unpleasant default sounds and vibration
Wi-Fi performance is a bit slow
Some camera focus issues in low light
Camera beaten by rivals
Speakers are good but not what HTC had on the M7/M8
Camera could be better
Should be priced more competitively
Rear camera struggles in low light
Relatively dim display
Boring design
Slow camera
High price
Metal construction still plenty slippery
Fingerprint reader disjoints motion gestures
Boomsound speakers not as loud as before
Camera doesn't quite match up to other flagships
Camera software needs tweaking
Launcher should adopt a better grid for QHD
Why no HiRes headphones in the box in the US?
A more competitive price would've helped
Default keyboard disappoints
No LTE support for Sprint (yet)
Camera still falls behind market leaders Samsung and LG. Offcontract price is expensive.
Noticeable corner softness of the lens
Fairly strong tendency to clip highlights in bright scenes
Smallish panorama output with stitching errors and ghosting
HDR mode inefficient at improving highlight detail
Slight jittering artifacts in video
Notic
Visible loss of sharpness in the corners with respect to the center
In some outdoor pictures
The highlights are slightly blown out
Some luminance noise visible in the sky
Using flash with no other light source
Some attenuation and noise visible in th
Merely average battery life
Camera performance falls short of some rivals
Sound is considerably less impressivewhen you listen through speakers
Hi-res earbuds aren't included with US models
No infrared
No radio receiver
SoC throttles during load
High idle power consumption when radio modules enabled
Solid quality build, Good overall performance, Great camera, Can shoot 4K video with 24-bit audio
Does not come with headphones, Does not want me to ditch my iPhone 6s
This has been a really fun review for me. Phones are not something we typically review and my only real experience seeing new phone technology is either at CES or if I happen to pop in a store at the mall. HTC still has a very large user-base, especially...

Thanks to very well-balanced noise reduction across the ISO range the HTC 10 produces very good image detail, falling just shy of the very best current smartphones. Panorama and HDR modes lack behind the best but on the upside the HTC offers full manual c...

There's no denying the fact that HTC's latest flagship is a solid all-rounder and a winning effort by the brand. In terms of both specs and pricing, it goes head to head with two able contenders, the Samsung Galaxy S7 and the LG G5 (first impressions). Th...

Were this any other year, we'd have an easy time calling this one and giving it to Samsung. But HTC is back, and the 10 is rock-solid.This makes the question of “which?” a rather personal affair. We tend to like the way the HTC 10 handles better, but once...

They released a really nice piece of hardware with a pretty good piece of software. They've fixed some of the initial software bugs, but I'm expecting most of the remaining will be squashed in the next update.I'm in the curious position of feeling like I'...
Quality look and feel, Great camera, Home button, microSD card
Expensive
It's easy for me to say that this is the best smartphone that HTC has ever made. Is it the best smartphone on the market right now though? No, but it's definitely at the top of the list. It misses the top spot because the HTC 10 is expensive and doesn't h...
