HTC announced on Monday that it is teaming up with JBL for the launch of the company’s new JBL Reflect Aware C USB-C headphones. JBL says they’re the first USB-C sport headphones in the world, and HTC is bundling them for free with new HTC 10 purchases. That’s a solid deal, considering that JBL is selling the headphones now for $199. JBL promises “best-in-class” noise cancellation,...
Let’s get down to brass tacks here – I used to write a “Top 5 Android smartphones” list every quarter, except, for a little bit there, everything started to feel awfully similar. We got into a very iterative stage of smartphones and, sure, there’s still the argument that we’re still fighting our way through it. But I think there’s enough differentiation out there to qualify a list again...
We usually save our top 5 smartphone lists until the end of the year but, given the influx of new phones that have landed in our laps, we figured now would be just as good a time as ever to bring you a list of our favorites. And, unlike some of our other lists, the TechnoBuffalo team actually did work to organize this in order, starting with number 5 and working down the page to the...
HTC has desperately tried to make its UltraPixel technology work, beginning with the One M7, which wound up producing disappointing results. Things got better by the time the One M9 rolled around, but the company's camera still couldn't quite produce results on a par with Apple or Samsung. Then the HTC 10 rolled around. In our review, we found the camera produce some excellent results...
HTC will sell the HTC 10 in some pretty standard colors in most markets, including black and silver in the U.S. But, if you live in Japan, you’ll be able to pick one up in a gorgeous “camellia red” hue from carrier KDDI. The news was dropped when HTC announced the 10 but largely slid under the radar since, well, it’s going to be hard to buy in most markets right now. HTC will...
The HTC 10 is the company's most beautiful and most powerful device yet. But does it have what it takes to take down the Samsung Galaxy S7? Find out in our review.
With the Galaxy S7, Samsung proved that a beautiful metal phone could also be water-resistant. Unfortunately, that’s not the case with the HTC 10, an otherwise impressive aluminum handset with a meager IP53 rating. https://twitter.com/urbanstrata/status/719880334138044416 According to Jeff Gordon, HTC’s senior global online communications manager, the new phone can stand up to just...
The HTC 10 is a masterfully crafted handset with a striking design, but how does it hold up to Cupertino’s iPhone 6s? We put the new Android flagship up against Apple’s iPhone 6s to find out. When it comes to pure specs, HTC seems to have the advantage, offering a higher resolution display, more RAM, better storage options and a bigger battery. Then again, Apple’s tight integration...
Our phone of the year and the winner of our Mobile Madness tournament has some real competition in the HTC 10, a brand new flagship from HTC. These are two of the most beautiful and powerful devices on the market, making this particular spec shootout very difficult to call. Yes, sure, the HTC 10 is clearly superior on paper, but the Nexus 6P still holds its own months after release, and...
The Galaxy S7 may be one of the best Android phones around, but a new challenger has arrived. The HTC 10 is here and it’s ready to do battle with Samsung’s best. Let’s see how the two stack up. The HTC sports a 12-UltraPixel rear camera with optical image stabilization and laser autofocus, while the Galaxy S7 offers a 12-megapixel shooter with a dual pixel sensor. The HTC 10 also...
