Exceptional build quality, A more subtle approach to software than on previous HTC phones, Top-tier performance, First Android phone that supports Airplay streaming out of the box, Great audio through headphones
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
Simply put, this is the best phone HTC has made in years. It's fantastic, though not exactly perfect. While its build quality is tremendous and there's plenty of horsepower under the hood, HTC still isn'tquiteas good as Samsung at cameras, while the b...
HTC has created a really, really nice smartphone in the HTC 10. It's well designed, certainly well made, features a trimmed down software experience that we should all appreciate and beg other manufacturers to emulate, has solid battery life, and even...

Abstract: It's time to start getting excited about HTC again. Not only did the company just start shipping the best VR headset money can buy , but it also has a legit Smartphone of the Year candidate in the gorgeous, powerful and smooth-handling new HTC 10. After a...
Best. Build. Ever, Top notch performance, Sound output balance and quality is incredible, High-res 24-bit audio and Apt-X support, Battery life is phenomenal, Sense UI is light yet feature rich, Fingerprint scanner is perfect
Refresh rate and color shifting issues on the display, Camera is so close to getting it right, but still not quite there
The HTC 10 is hands down the best phone HTC has ever made, and is quite honestly one of the most perfect devices on the market. Being almost perfect of course means there are still issues, but many are so minor you'll forget about them the second you a...
After playing it safe last year, I'm glad HTC decided to do things a differently this year. Of course on the outside, it doesn't seem like much had changed but it has. From retaining a premium look to evolving BoomSound (both internally & externally) to...
Alluring, macho design, Great build quality, Leading fingerprint scanner implementation, Nononsense software, Extremely smooth performance
Default keyboard disappoints, No LTE support for Sprint (yet)
How did we get here? When did flashy gimmicks become more important in driving sales than a solid foundation? Why did removable batteries, modules, and questionable 'innovations' like edge screens become a more compelling reason to buy one phone over the...
Wellbuilt aluminum unibody, Fast performance and clean, uncluttered UI, Impressive audio features, Capable allround camera
Display not great in sunlight, Camera focusing can be finicky, particularly in macro, Battery life inconsistent, sometimes wildly so, Expensive SIMfree price
Should you buy the HTC 10? YesThe HTC 10 is unquestionably HTC's best phone ever. It's also a great Android phone in its own right, with an attractive metal unibody, top-notch audio credentials, fast and uncluttered software, speedy fingerprint security a...
Camera The M9's camera was... kind of terrible. The 10's fixes most of the issues and provides a genuinely competitive imaging system once again, even if I wouldn't call it worldclass. The new camera app is also just great, in my opinion, Battery life At
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
For phone reviewers and fans alike, HTC often presents a danger of nostalgia - yearning for the days when HTC sat atop the smartphone kingdom, turned ugly and often inconsistent software into an identifiable, branded experience with Sense, and delivered s...

I suspect you already know whether you're going to buy the HTC 10. "I suspect you already know whether you're going to buy the HTC 10." In many ways, HTC is playing to the crowd with its latest flagship: an industrial design that's a refinement on the fam...

Gorgeous screen, Hi-res audio and BoomSound, Freestyle desktops, Strong performance
Camera beaten by rivals
The HTC 10 is a solid all-round package, a phone that has few weaknesses and certainly doesn't disappoint like last year's One M9 handset. Media fans will love the gorgeous screen, BoomSound speakers and Hi-res audio support, while the funky Freestyle des...
