The HTC 10 is the latest premium flagship model from HTC the undisputed king of the Unibody design. The HTC 10 confidentially testifies what unibody metal-craft should look and almost definitely feel like. Announced in New York earlier today and continuing with familiar design language of it’s forbears the HTC 10 has a new Picasso inspired chamfered cosmetic edge.

Cutting all around the side an back of the phone and making it just 3mm thick in places. Mimicked around the front with a sharper incline, the 9mm frame encompasses a 5.2 inch Quad HD, new generation LCD5 display, which HTC buzz as the fastest touchscreen in the west with low latency response to touch and deeper depth of colour, brightness and saturation.

Not to mention 5.2 inches is more then by far a marginal increase on the 5 inch M9. Flaring 1440 x 2560 pixels with 565 pixels compressed per inch covering 71.1% of the phones surface area. Naturally putting it in the same waters as the Samsung Galaxy S7, LG G5 and Sony Xperia Premium. Specific indeed but we’re only just getting there. The volume rocker rocks gilded premium ridged teeth for you to waver up or down, with a speaker located facing at the top and with the woofer BoomSound tailored right below the bottom bezel. All this is partnered with a fast functioning updated fingerprint scanner, doubling as a capacitive central home button.

HTC 10 Specifications

The internal build matches the same premium delicacies you’d find on most flagships, with 4GB of RAM, the renowned Snapdragon 820 strapped together with a quad core processing system. Featuring a set of two dual core processors. Kicking kicks all day like Bruce Lee clocking in at 2.15 and 1.6 Ghz. With these specifications and engines the new HTC 10 should be both stable and dependent, with a 3000 MAh 2 day battery somehow sealed inside. HTC haven’t gone nuts and copied everyone else with an octa core system but stuck to longevity and reliability of a high end quad core heart built around an immaculate (161 gram) weighted body.

HTC 10 Working Together

Expandable storage is impressive with as much as 2TB (Terabytes) of extra micro SD card space to be used if needed, more than enough for your entire music collection, even for when shooting in 4K. HTC delivered on the licence hosting Apple Airplay for the project and edify Google apps right out of the box. Reducing boatware and duplicate manufacturer apps whilst opening a window of opportunity to Apple custom. The whole UI overlays Android 6.0.1 Marshmellow with a reported streamlined version of HTC’s Sense, still including Blinkfeed, with it’s own theme allowing you to stick and drop files all over the place, or even secretly hide them in the plain sight merged with the background. There’s the new generation reversible USB-Type C thrown in with a safely cooled fast recharge, for whenever necessity demands charging 50% in thirty minutes, time is always short so what else more could you ask for?

HTC 10 Camera

HTC went back to the drawing board for the new 10. Sounds like Newton doesn’t it? Early reports show that the camera system has reverted back to a RAW, 26mm, f/1.8 12MP lens capturing 4K, fully equipped with dual LED autofocus and optical imaging stabilisation on both front and back camera. HTC have increased the pixel size utilising Ultrapixels technology, allowing in more light for finer photography and even lower lighting conditons.
