HTC 10 Review: The Best Android Phone You're Not Buying
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 сер 2024
- HTC's 2016 flagship is a stellar smartphone from the company that brought you the aluminum unibody - but with downgraded speakers and a camera that's just okay, it's not quite the Perfect Ten its name implies. Still, it's hard to escape the conclusion that the HTC 10's shortcomings would be totally forgivable ones ... if only the price was a little lower. The HTC 10 has been on the market for months, MrMobile has used it for a large portion of those months, and you wouldn't stop asking for a review in the comments - so settle in for Michael Fisher's HTC 10 review!

[ABOUT THIS REVIEW]
This HTC 10 review was published after approximately 90 days with an HTC 10 review device on loan to MrMobile from HTC. The device was tested on T-Mobile US in Greater Boston, New York City, and rural New York State. It was paired with an Android Wear watch for the entirety of the test period.

Great, just great reviews!!! THUMBS UP!
MrMobile [Michael Fisher] thanx for this fantastic review and voicing your opinion, convincing
long time no see
"The best Android phone you're not buying"
...watching this on my HTC 10 😆
How do you like it so far? I'm getting mine pretty soon.
+DuxDub Studios I know I'm not the poster but I'm so excited I have to tell you about it! have it for 3 months. it's very fast, no slowdown at all. Sound is great! plug in some headphones, you'll be impressed. Build quality is very solid, the back has a smooth curve that flows into the chamfers. It's a really great phone
Same here :D As a former Galaxy S7E user, I have to say that I'm quite impressed with the HTC 10, especially the audio quality! Of course, there are shortcomings that I wish HTC would have done differently, overall I'm happy to use the HTC 10, and recommend it to anyone who's looking for a good Android smartphone :)
+Keston- Kende Johnson Good to hear! I'm tired of my Galaxy phones constantly slowing down and having mediocre sound quality.
+Minh Pham with HTC the sum of its parts is greater than its whole. Samsung has a great phone but their features are more flashy and attention getting. The 10 is extremely optimized for the chip and software. The sound is great and it has adoptable storage which is pretty handy. These features don't bring as much attention as Samsung. it's more subtle. it feels like they took great features from both Apple and Android.
HTC 'might' even fail in the years to come, but it'll always have a soft spot in my heart. It's hell of a company.
anyone with me?
Agreed. There's something about them that makes them standout, more fun, more intuitive, funky, just nice.
Oops
HTC would sell a lot more phones if they would actually get the 10 into stores to be sold... Haven't seen it anywhere. Meanwhile, best buy has the s7, the g5, the moto z, and even the note 7. Hell they had the note 7 in stores before it was even out, meanwhile here we are in august with no htc 10 when its been out for months already
I have never seen people with a Moto Z or an HTC 10 for that matter. I swear it's all Samsung and Apple these daus.
Oh, I misread your comment, but yeah it's ridiculous how long I've had to wait for my HTC 10 to ship to a Best Buy store. The approximate time for it to ship is almost 2 weeks... 2 WEEKS.
DuxDub Studios I work in a best buy, and I can tell you samsung's marketing is definitely more prevalent then LG or motorola, but we at least have them in store to show people, which is more than can be said about the HTC.
That said, a lot more people would also by the moto z if it wasn't a verizon exclusive. Myself being one of those people. I won't buy the regular moto over the axon, but I'd buy the z force. Unfortunately I have At&t, so it won't matter anyway.
+Thomas Fisher I was about to buy the Moto Z Force, but the lack of a headphone jack killed it for me. I don't like relying on an adapter for my headphone needs.
DuxDub Studios That is one thing that definitely sucks about it. I can't tell you the last time I used headhphones with my phone though, so I personally wouldn't mind as much.
Fun fact: The HTC 10 supports adoptable storage. So you can throw in a 32GB SD card coupled with the 32 on board to get a total of 64GB.
I don't usually ask for thumbs up but it'd be nice if we showed this info to people reading the comments.
Wow, i did not know that.
Just make sure you get a fast microSD card or you're in for a world of hurt!
Wow shame u can't do that on a Samsung device
My phone got sd card "slot' but i cannot install apps in it and internal memory is only 8gb and no option to move the apps lol
+Harsh Vardhan (Vality) I hate phones like that. my first Android phone had the same situation , and I only have 4 gigs of available on board storage after the os
The Best Android Phone You're Not Buying... because it's expensive.
The Note 7 is more expensive then this. You get this for high quality audio. :)
*because samsung
+TyphoonBlade, TheRelaxedFlier Isn't the Axon 7 the better choice for audio this?
+Kyle Rego *tho
+Kyle Rego I believe that will go to the LG V20 next.
personally I switched form iphone 6 to htc 10 and i'm more happy than ever
especially I had the samsung s1 but I never liked it, samsung version of android is trash
Alt-255 me too. I had an iPhone 6s and I think this is WAY better.
And tonight I can sleep happy, because I know that HTC is still the best company out there, and that man is awesome for taking the plunge back into Android 👌😁
Alex Gonzalez - The 10 is a great handset, a top-notch successor to the flawed One M9, but unfortunately, a close to the amazing M-Series "Tank Flagships" as a whole... The device that replaces this, namely the "U", not "U Ultra" or "U Play", is more in line with that particular series, some of which we have already seen - only not as big... Knowing that, I'll be holding on to my 10 for as long as I possibly can, maybe into the third, or even fourth year!
Man i miss HTC Wish they were still here
the HTC 10 is a textbook example of the consumer having lost faith in the OEM.
+Team Android Canada yes l agree.
+Team Android Canada right
+Team Android Canada that would be incredible. i had they m8 and loved the audio, but since its untimely destruction i have had a note 3, an s6 edge, and now a note 7. i have to say samsung phones are very very good, i just miss those m8 front facers
+mark gonzales the*
LOVE MIne.
Legend says, if you are early Mr. Mobile replies
I put no stock in such fairy tales.
+MrMobile [Michael Fisher] you are amazing!! Love your videos, your voice is amazing. Keep making these awesome videos.
Yup Legend was indeed right!
+Dhruv Kaith agree
+MrMobile [Michael Fisher] when will you review the new axon 7 Wi-Fi calling will be added in a new maintenance update
Well let's put it this way (I'm an HTC 10 owner, so I'll just get that out of the way). If the HTC 10, a phone made of solid aluminum, excellent built quality with 24 bit sound DAC/AMP into it, should be $400, shouldn't the G5 be at the same price? They are charging $700 for a phone made of plastic covered with paint and primer, and an additional ~$100 extra (or was it $130), for a DAC/AMP module which the HTC 10 already has in its $700 price. Nobody bats an eye. Yes, the S7 ticks a lot of the boxes, but doesn't offer high resolution sound, and its speakers are pure shit due to the water proofing. It may not be a deal breaker for kids who look for a phone they can get into the bath tub, with a shiny candy color display to play asphalt 8 on, but for me, it is, because I'm a grown up, and I don't bathe with my phone. I also value the overall experience, and feel of my smartphone, and by comparison, the button feedback and how the S7 / G5 feel in hand, is like a toy compared to the HTC 10. That's just me though.
You are correct, but unfortunately not ordinary people prefer over sharpened, over saturated photons and an unrealistic display over natural photos and natural display. Because majority don't know the value of pure things.
be careful with saltwater on the s7
G5 isn't plastic but *ok*
Also ordinary people don't care about lag, s7 is not optimized... :( sadly true, htc do a good job with their software, and for me, smooth experience is the most important thing in a smartphone
+Rocky Saxena You might want to be careful with the underwater shooting. If I'm not wrong, Samsung warranty does NOT cover water damage. It is covered only if you buy their Protection Plus plan along with the phone.
When I watch tech reviews, the videos are usually the reviewer inside his studio talking about how this phone is better than the other. Blah blah blah.
But this dude? Man!
Just look at the quality and the work he has put into it.
I mean the rest of the videos have half as much as effort put into them!
The quality your output Michael? I feel your effort. I feel like this is your job. I feel happy when I watch your videos.
And believe me, this I never got with the other reviewers.
Hats off to you! 😊
I love my HTC 10. I don't use a case as I prefer to showcase the beautiful build of the 10. I get asked all the time...what phone are you using? I can only smile and reply...HTC baby!!
One of the best reviewers out there, great delivery & crystal clear, Flossy is another favourite of mine, peace from London. x
This is too expensive yet people will happily buy a fucking iPhone for $850...
People are happily buying garbage with no flagship's specs
Verted Intro j
My reasons for buying this phone over any competitor like the Galaxy S7 for example (while coming from the Galaxy S4):
1) The back-, home- and menu-buttons are hardware and not on-screen (why should I give up that extra screen space when I got that space below the screen anyways?)
2) Expandable storage (I got a SanDisk 200GB microSDXC card full with music and movies, can't get any cheaper than that)
3) It's snapdragon-based - so CyanogenMod isn't out of the question if I get tired of HTC's Sense UI. (That's why the Galaxy S7 dropped out for me)
4) I am an audiophile and listen to a lot of music with expensive headphones so the built in processor / DAC blows my ears right off.
...
and so on
Thorsten Hagemeier number 2 is irrelevant since there is expandable storage on s7 as well
Thorsten Hagemeier the s7 doesn't have on screen buttons, and mine has the snapdragon 820.
love the choice of music. of course, great review as always!
can you re-review the Nexus 6P, please?
i would like to know if its still worth buying with new nexuses just around the corner and how well its aged after one year
Buy One Plus 3 aka nexus 7 😆
No Nabil. The OP3 is superior, but maybe he just want the "instant" updates.
Nookiezilla exactly that 👌
Simon Šelih Just get it. It's fine enough
Nabil Khatri thanks anyway but i can get 6P cheaper now and it will be updated untill 2017 or more for security updates
Hey Michael ,
Long time fan
really loving the content ,probably the best on UA-cam !
And do you rate it above the S7 edge?
Rohan Satish Not necessarily.Both are wonderful smartphones and it only comes down to your personal preference.So don't be an amateur 😂😂😂 and compare both.Both are great pieces if hardware and amongst the best of 2016
From your perspectives and reviews of each device to the filmmaking / editing of each video you've become one of my favorite mobile tech channels! In my opinion, MrMobile is every bit as good as MKBHD and the other huge tech channels, but your narration separates you from the crowd and makes your videos super entertaining. Keep up the awesomeness!!
black front looks much better than the white one
Agreed; and the silver casing is just gorgeous in person.
+MrMobile [Michael Fisher] Yas! ;)
So glad US carriers are offering that version and not the white front and silver back one. :)
Sadly in the U.K the glacial silver back only comes with the white front, so my 10 isn't as pretty as it should be ;(
Ugh, forgot about that.
HTC is too expensive, in such a competitive world, as you said, they can't make it through !
700€ a phone ? C'mon a OP3 is doing quite the same thing with few things less for 400€... (just an example of course)
I'd say right now with all the promotional items they are throwing in... It makes it a bit more compelling
Well the S7 has some good point : amazing battery/screen, but laggy Touchwizz (yes it still a thing after all this years). But Samsung is samsung, they have a great marketing power, HTC don't, and when people go for 700€ in a phone, they go with a apple or samsung product, not a HTC or Sony one, that's why both are in big pain selling their flagships.
And HTC might do the same error with the Nexus this year (I hope not).
+Eileen the Crow fully agree. I perfer HTC, always have for whatever reason. However, i order the Axon 7 basically because of price!
TheA1God25 Clearly you don't own any other device than Samsung to say that. Take an HTC, Motorola, Nexus, OnePlus... you will understand how fucked touchwizz is.
Even XDA wrote a article concerning massive issues with the Note 7
this phone is 850 dollar at my place. no way to buy
You, Jaime and lanh are my favorite reviewers. Not only do yall talk specs and features, yall also talk feel and the whole experience. Your work is greatly appreciated and i wish you much success Mr.Mobile!
GOD the editing in this video is soo F***ing GOOD!! Michael you've been missed and I'M SOO GLAD that you have returned!! Nobody can match the slick editing and absolutely fantastic content you create and provide!
I am a die hard HTC fan :))))))
#TeamHTC all day ...
same here
Me Too #HTC
Hrvoje Sucic give u a like and comment from an m8 ;)
only HTC
In HTC trust
The HTC10 is $200 off right now for Black Friday. Which comes out to $499 unlocked, is it worth buying at this price? I'm still debating, I'm currently using the Nexus 4 as my daily driver
My HTC10 has been going SOLID for 4 freakin' months now (Super Smooth w/ No Lag AT ALL, Great BatterLife, Great Camera, GREAT HARDWARE) / Expensive? If Apple and Samsung still making their products that high in price, I'm cool with this boy's pricing!
About a year or two ago my brother got his first smartphone, a cherry red HTC One M8. I fell in love with it, especially since it wasnt mine, the design was outstanding, and he always bragged about the speakers. Then the M9 came out with a really bad camera, whatever. now he has the Galaxy S7, and has cracked the front and back of it 6 ways to Sunday (apologies if I said that wrong) point is, HTC does make nice phones, but now so does Samsung, and a few others at lower pricing options. Great video Michael
This was the first phone I've had a case for in many, MANY years. The Ice View case is great- and so useful! Loving the phone, camera and audio especially!
better safe than sorry
576356 Main reason was actually because of the metal body; and because I work in a hectic environment :P Which means it'll get marks easily, and because it's metal I noticed they 'stick' more then on plastic phones (coming from Lumia phones). So a case was a no-brainer, and the Ice View is brilliant!
+Vandrefalk same here. Using a spigen case. moved from a Lumia myself. I think Lumia users prefer the fundamentals that HTC offers. Clean efficient software, quality build and great recording.
Keston- Kende Johnson Indeed! :D
yeah the Ice View Case is amazing and it always turns heads because it's such a unique case, I love how it has beauty and functionality with being able to use the Camera and interact with your phone without needing to lock it :)
I have a htc10 and I love it I've dropped it so many times and is only got a couple of searches and one inner vertacal crack on the top of the screen but u hardly notice it.
I never knew your channel had been around so long. I was looking at your rise and fall of LG and wondered if you had an HTC video. Behold! You did one 5 years ago!
just wanna say,I watched your reviews on pocket now and compared to other reviews,I like yours a whole lot more, I know I'm getting a full and honest review clear ,to the point and nicely informative,I'm looking for a new phone to upgrade from my galaxy s4 and I trust your reviews,it's hard knowing what's best to go for . any wisdom on my next phone appreciated ....Best of luck with all you do from the UK
Not being sold at AT&T didn't help the Ten.
heard T-Mobile even drop the 10 from their lineup
+Travis Porter yup after 2 months
they're not selling it on at&t? that's a shame. kinda wanted it as an upgrade from my M8
+RandomVideos You can always buy it unlocked
yogosans14 wonder why
What happened to Pocketnow?
+Nick Selig :glances across the Internet: it seems fine to me
n
MrMobile [Michael Fisher] So... you left?
Yes
Nick Selig h
You said it best. This is 2016 and HTC is still selling this phone at the prices like we were in 2013. In my area it has even left the likes of the Samsung S7s, LG G5, Sony Z5s behind in pricing for the worse.
Michael! What a pleasant surprise to see you pop back up on UA-cam.
Glad you're continuing the reviews. I really enjoy your reviewing style. Looking forward to many more reviews to come!
$999 in Canada :O that's why I will never buy it. Like you say it's not an S7...
That's insane
$999 in Canadian dollars, right?
This is exactly why people aren't buying it. HTC do not have the branding they once did, the only brands people will break the bank for are Apple and Samsung. It's got more to do with HTC's poor position as a company/brand rather than the product itself. Many of my friends who only really know Samsung and Apple are often pleasantly surprised with my HTC 10, that it offers the same experienced/performance when they've never heard of the brand.
right
fair enough, but if you live in Canada that's not really relevant haha. A dollar is a dollar. The average income isn't greater here and Im not getting paid in USD! (unfortunately)
I love my 10. The best phone I have ever owned
Had to give you props for Halt and Catchfire !! love that show
I think it's a pretty great phone. I just picked one up for my wife on Black Friday, it's her fourth HTC (Evo 4G, Evo 4G LTE, One M8 Harman-Kardon). So far so good! I had a One M7 myself, HTC does a really great job, but indeed have always been understated. Nice review, Michael!
+MrMobile Is that the HTC BoomBass i spot at 5:20?
Nailed it.
+MrMobile [Michael Fisher] dude I think you're the only one that still has one
+Domenico Lamberti that's freaking cool I'm jealous Fisher has one I've been wanting to buy it for a long time.
surely the iPhone SE is your one handed answer?
it's nothing to the htc 10 am sorry but that's the truth
Its not Android.
+zorkor that too
+zorkor do you think it's 'political". I can't remember his using an iPhone. maybe my memory...
+Tech Ventions I use an s6 edge but really fancy the SE. the size and the camera...
If you don't hit 500k sub by the year end, man I don't even.....
Holding my breath for an Idol 4 review!
Really missing the front firing speakers. Having an s6 edge plus after my HTC One M8, made me miss the front firing speakers and the sleekness of the M8. I dont like the home buttons on phones these days, and the finger print scanner is not on my wishlist anyway, so I'll probably try the Alcatel 4s over this HTC 10. Great review as always Michael! You hit it right on the nail... I won't go back to HTC until they bring back the speakers and do away with the home button. They thought being more like an iphone or a galaxy phone would increase their chances to hit it big in the market, but they lost their die hard consumers in the process.
i miss htc :((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((
Anyone in 2k19 ??
Actually 2020 and watching from my awesome htc 10
Great review, Michael! We need more of this honest perspective, rather than the release day hype we get from so many blogs and websites.
this is the honest HTC 10 review I saw on UA-cam.
I'm what you called "a die hard hTC fan" and I'm going to buy the 10, if the nexus don't live up to the hype!
Huge thanks MrMobile.
so s7 or htc 10
HTC 10. Go with something different
I was on the same fence. Went to AT&T to hold and hear
the S7, I didn’t like it. The sound was crap, very similar to the iPhone 5S I replaced
and it didn’t sit well in the hand. Opted for the HTC 10 Unlocked from HTC with
a GREAT discount and love the phone.
Cons:
Screen viewing outside with polarized sunglasses
is a task to rotate phone to view and use. Accessory cases are limited and clunky- depends
on what you’re looking for thoMetal back is slick
Pros:
Smooth operatingNot locked to a PC for changes like iPhone“Ok Google”Split screen function-YES you can operate 2 Apps
same time with drag and drop functionGreat pictures and videoSound is great from on-board speaker &
HeadphonesYou can customize your “sound experience” with hearing
tests and other great functionsHeadphone jack is on topFast ChargingFully customizable Uh-Oh planGlobal use Anything else you’d need out of the box, it’s
ready to work
Just one word:
Samsung.
1 word: bye.
2 words "OnePlus Three"
Bro everyone knows Samsung is king of Smartphones!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who the fuck actually listens from their phone speaker. Its 2016 cast that shit to your TV or put your headphones in. And yes Samsung rocks but for half the price I mean come on
One word: TouchWiz
good to see you still doing video reviews I was wondering where you went...
I think I'll get it, but I miss the metal front face that was on the M8 and M9.
I like the fact the you are one of the few people who gave the phone the just review it deserves .
I purchased the HTC 10 over other brands as it offered a DisplayPort . HDMI out on a phone, is "must" have feature for me, as I like to plug my phone into my spare work monitor, hotel TVs for media play back and there no lag when playing games. Aslo, the HTC 10 is very easy to root and currently have ViperOne on my phone. It's a shame that a lot of phones are not offering HDMI out options these days for us media and on the go people. I also love the HTC 10 hi-fi headphones, better than my IE80 which are sitting on the shelf now.
I look at four important things when choosing an Android handset, especially a flagship...1) Heavy use durability (time between factory resets - if needed at all - to get rid of compiled garbage that slows down operation - This is you, Samsung, LG, Google, and Motorola!)... 2) Multitasking speed (especially now with upcoming Nougat split screen functions)... 3) Support for adoptable storage (in Marshmallow and Nougat - Are you paying attention, Samsung and LG?)... and 4) Superb on board audio quality output through standard headphone jacks (without installing a third-party EQ app - See this too, Sammy?)... The HTC 10 fills those shoes for me!
Awesome review!!! It was so nice of you to mention Jerome Ortega. The kid is pretty good in my opinion.
Dude, I wondering where you were. I haven't seen you on the other mobile channel for a while. You are a great reviewer. Keep it up
This guy is like the Jim's Review Room of Phones. SO so classy, with a just a touch of quirky. You're absolutely KILLING it bro, keep it up!!
Awesome video! I am really considering to buy an HTC 10 after your review. Too bad that here in Italy you can't find it in stores and it is expensive
10,000th like on this video! Quality videos! Hated to see you leave the other channel but glad to see your videos are still great quality!
Welcome back Fisher. I missed your reviews. you were 10 times better than what the other team has now. We all know which team was that and there is no need to look back
Always been a fan of HTC, even thought it does NOT get the recognition of Samsung or Motorola.
A good friend of mine got the HTC EVO and I was impressed back then. The EVO's kickstand was worth the price alone!!
My first smartphone was the Atrix by Motoroloa, then the Pantech Discover which I REALLY liked: all the bells/whistles as the Galaxy 5 but $150.00 less!!
2 years ago I got the HTC M One 8, which I liked: the design, all metal body, etc
Was very disappointed finding out AT&T wouldn't carry the M 10, so I got an un-locked version with $100.00 off promotion. AT&T put SIM chip in new phone, gave me 150.00 store credit. Found out my bill will be cut by 1/3 because I'm NOT on contract.
I like the native Google UI, makes it SO much easier without all that bloatware. I plan to SLOWLY add previous apps. The new BoomSound speaker configuration takes getting used to, but I'm VERY happy with the phone's sound, look, performance. . .
HTC if marketed well they would blow Samsung out of the water. They make GOOD SOLID phones.
Hey Michael, great to see you doing so well flying solo! I've been an HTC fan for a run of phones, kept my m7 for over 3 years. Have had the 10 since it's release and I think it's great. Camera, for me, is terrific, sound is great in headphones and excellent overall, but, yes, miss the all out front speakers. I feel like there's a sophistication, overall, that the samsung has never had. Weird quirk that drives me crazy. The screen completely disappears when I'm wearing sunglasses. Have you noticed? Thanks!
I'm glad Michael is back. I miss his voice and poetic cadence when he talks it makes me since 2012.
First I was unhappy when you left pocketnow but after seeing those reviews.... Man I am very happy for you and for your audience. Keep up the very good work! Easily the best reviews...
Absolutely no regrets from buying the HTC 10. I'm doing every little thing to help the company survive and let this wonderful phone find more happy owners
my sister just picked up an used HTC M9 and she loves it. I am using a S6 edge plus now. The HTC 10 is one of my favorite phones.
Great video. I've had the HTC 10 for about two months now. Honestly I love the fact that see don't see anyone else with it. Not so good for HTC but I live being different.
i love my htc 10, i too bought it the first month, and i too hate how its not getting the respect and looks it deserves..i think HTC may have hurt its brand beyond repair in the general public's eyes with the M series tho. that and like you said, samsung phones are the more visible, and sexier pick, but the htc 10 deserves to stand right along with the note7 and s7 as the premier android flagships available this year...oh well..i'll just hold onto my little secret driver and enjoy it even if i cant convince anyone else to with me
I'm considering myself an HTC die hard fan, that's why I bought this phone as an upgrade to my M7 and I don't regret it.
Awesome review and really enjoyed it.
Watch where you point that finger Mr Fisher. I've got two HTC 10s in this household and it was the 10 that replaced my beloved Moto X. I think you summed it up completely when you said 'It gets the job done' and while I miss my old One M8s FF speakers it just does everything else so much better
I have decided to switch to my first HTC and yes I can not wait to get my hands on the 10! I was leaning towards the S7 edge but what sold me is the audio factor on the 10! And when seeing in the store for the first time I thought ( wow that's a beautiful phone) I enjoy watching your videos Mr Mobile over most. Thanks for this one👍🏽
Michael, keep it going, i hink it would be awesome to see the after the buzz episodes you used to do, it was awesome. greeting from Ecuador
You are right in every single word unfortunately :( .
I switched from iPhone to Desire, then One X+. And have been carrying M7 and Desire 820 for the pasr 2 years.
Now I need to purchase a new handset, and find it very difficult not to go for S7 edge or Note7!
Brilliant video. Of all the huge amounts of research I've been doing, your video sums it up perfectly. I'm a huge HTC fan and can't bring myself to give up my ONE M7 which still works flawlessly. But the 10 is still slightly too expensive and I will miss my dual front facing speakers. Ready to take the leap but the price needs to go down before I finally say goodbye to my M7
I'd like to point out the irony of doing a speaker demonstration with the device surrounded by anechoic foam.But in all seriousness, love your reviews, Michael Fisher.
Great review! I used to have a M9 and i miss it so much. The only thing that i don't like about the 10 is the placement of the fingerprint scanner and the capacitive buttons. Why the hell they are not on the center of the gap? It kills me. Sorry for bad english.
absolutely this is the best reviewer and best in depth true review of the HTC 10. this video really helped me understand the reason behind the poor sales of this great device. Thumbs up M. Fisher.. count me a great van and I promise you more subscribers by the end of this month. 100 more subscribers at least.
Excelent review! I like how this guy paces himself when talking delivering a concise, clear message. Can I work with you? Do you need any kind of help? Now, about the phone: htc shot itself on the foot with that price. Nice device, just priced ridiculously high.
would love to see a comparison of the HTC 10 & the axon 7 !!
2k displays, great speakers, metal builds, expansion slot.... it'll be interesting!!
I would say that the Moto X Pure is still the phone I'm working towards. Let's just say that I thought I could pull one on Verizon by getting a device agreement on a Note 5 back in Oct of 2015 and sell it to get the Moto X Pure super cheap. I quickly found out that the promotional discount meant that it had to stay activated on that line in order to keep receiving my $15 discount each month. Lesson learned and still wanting my Moto X Pure bad! Hopefully I get it before this gets discontinued
Was having this exact discussion with a co-worker today. Good timing!
Dude !! I am so happy I found your channel!
Sent from a HTC M8 and having a HTC 10 cuz I am a die hard fan! 😋😋
I subbed just because you are a genius who has a trek communicator and made me laugh out loud with the "other devices" moment.
keep up the entertaining great work, reviews this good are a rarity. humor goes a long way and was perfectly used.
How come I have never stumbled on to your channel?! Aaaaand subscribed. Keep it up!
Hi Michael... Honestly.. This was hands down the best smartphone review I have ever seen! And believe me I have seen ALOT of them! I also like the htc 10 but wouldn't buy it... I think it lacks buyers because of missing g commercials! But I actually do also that one friend that just needs to get stuff done, and I did tell him to get the htc 10! And he did and loves it! So as we can see you have once again brought in down on point with your reviews!
Keep up the good work my youtube friend!
You know what killed htc 10 for me? Is the screen polarizing where if you have polarized sunglasses, phone is unusable in portrait mode
I always love HTC, now i'm using HTC eye desire, but looking forward to buy HTC 10, hopefully it will be available in Thailand soon
great review as always Michael, but it seems you missed commenting on the battery life. apparently 10 isn't comparable with its predecessor M8.
correction...they do offer a 1 year warranty. only the screen damage/ water damage thing that's not included in their home market
The star trek communicator you squeezed in was a nice touch...
Great video! Very high on the info/tainment meter. Helpful and well-packaged, very well-presented piece of video work. Nice going!
your reviews - videos keep getting better an better!!!!
Oh man, the quality of this video... Calling it just crispy would be an understatement!
Lossless vs the audio compression usually used in HD video... I can't imagine I'll be able to hear the difference tbh. Compression these days is very efficient.
All my HTC phones have been good. Dropped my current phone several times and my cat also tested its impact resistance capabilities more than a few times, as well. HTC is a reliable and quality brand. In terms of overall multimedia use
( audiovisual), it also seems to be a winner with the HTC 10.
Ya, I was a big HTC fan starting with the Aria, One, One M8....but the lack of front facing speakers was a killer in my book. I think I may be wandering over to the Samsung note7 side.
found you on the Pocket Now podcast love you dude!!!!!
Love this review Fish. I'm planning to change my current Nexus 6P to this phone, would you recommend it?.
They could save the Boom sound Speakers by inserting the Fingerprint scanner in the Power button just like what the Nextbit did with their Robin. If they had done this change and if the phone costs 100$ less than this, maybe this would have been the best phone on the market right now.
