    Exclusive: HTC One M9 to Release in India in the Next Few Months

    At an event held on 14th April, HTC, in an unprecedented move, announced the arrival of the HTC One M9+ instead of the One M9. The phone, which was first announced at MWC 2015, was all ready to be greeted by Indian consumers, when HTC showed up with the One M9+ instead.

    Don’t think we’re complaining; the M9+ comes with a larger screen, a better display and the same sleek design as the M9. However, for people who’d like an option of both, you’re likely to get one within the next few months. At the launch, a senior HTC official hinted to iGyaan that the One M9 might arrive in India soon.

With a storage of 32GB, the memory slot is expandable up to 128GB via microSD. The imaging department includes a 20MP Autofocus BSI Sensor primary camera capable of shooting 4K videos and HTC Ultra Pixel Front camera. The phone derives its power from a 2840mAh battery and the OS runs on Android 5.0.2 along with HTC Sense 7.

    Here’s a quick look at its specs:

  • Spec Battle : Samsung Galaxy S6 Vs Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Vs HTC One M9+

    Spec Battle : Samsung Galaxy S6 Vs Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Vs HTC One M9+

    Today, HTC brought out the One M9+ in India, skipping the speculated launch of the original M9 unveiled at MWC 2015. The One M9 might not make its way to the Indian sub-continent, but we’ve got the bigger Plus version to weigh against its competition. The top of the line smartphone packs hefty specifications, which may even manage to put a dent in Samsung’s market.

    Let’s check out how the smartphones fare against each other:

    HTC ONE M9+ vs S6 Edge 2

    Clearly, the pricing of the phone might lead the audience to shift focus on the Galaxy S6 rather than HTC One M9+, especially since the smartphone runs on a MediaTek processor. The display size of the phones is  similar, and the RAM  of the three handsets also stands parallel. The battery and rear camera of the HTC One M9+ are slightly bumped up, but overall the devices hold comparable specifications.

    Since we’ve got our hands on both the devices, we have to admit that the HTC One M9+ feels more sturdy in the hand. Another area where HTC One M9+ wins is the fact that it comes with an expandable memory option, a feature that would be appreciated by many.  HTC has brought the One M9+ to compete with the big-sized rulers in the Indian market. We’ll have to now wait and watch how this move turns out for the company.

  • HTC Introduces the One M9+ in China With a Fingerprint Sensor and a Larger Display

    HTC Introduces the One M9+ in China With a Fingerprint Sensor and a Larger Display

    HTC introduced its flagship for 2015, the One M9 at the Mobile World Congres this year. After the launch, a few leaks suggested that HTC might be working on a new, bigger device called the HTC One M9+. Well, HTC confirmed the leaks today by unveiling the device in the Chinese market.

    The One M9+ sports a 5.2 inch QHD (2K) display with a pixel density of 534 ppi. It is powered by a 2.2 Ghz, Octa-core, Mediatek MT6795T along with 3 GB RAM. The M9+ offers 32 GB of internal storage that is expandable up to 128 GB. The device is juiced up by a non-removable 2840 mAh battery.

    On the camera front, the handset flaunts a 20.7MP + 2.1MP dual camera on the back; we saw the ultra pixel avatar of the dual camera on HTC’s previous flagship, the One M8. On the front, the device offers a 4 MP shooter.

    The new addition to this device are the fingerprint sensors that have been previously seen on iPhones and other flagship devices. From the looks of it, the One M9+ looks like a much better competitor to the other flagships in terms of the features offered. But it is not sure as of yet if the company will be bringing the device to markets apart from China. We sure hope it does.
