HTC has been teasing us with bits and pieces of this particular phone and now it is finally out – the HTC 10.
According to the company, the HTC 10 is a product of key customer feedback and their obsessive attention to detail.
As per the look, the company says it did not sacrifice durability for beauty. It certainly boasts of a slimmer look and a full-glass front that merges seamlessly into the metal body but it is also engineered to handle the knocks, bumps and scratches of everyday use. The HTC 10 was subjected to more than 168 hours of extreme temperature tests, and more than 10,000 drop, bend, scratch and corrosion tests.
It is believed that the HTC 1o is the best smartphone camera available on the market today. It features:
- The world’s first optically stabilized, larger aperture f/1.8 lenses on both front and rear cameras
- New larger sensors
- 12 million new generation UltraPixels (1.55um per pixel)
- Faster laser autofocus powering the main camera
- Wide angle lens and screen flash on the front UltraSelfie™ camera
When you take this camera and combine it with the audio capabilities of the HTC 10, you get a vivid 4K video with the world’s first stereo 24-bit Hi-Res audio recording, which captures 256 times more detail than standard recordings across twice the frequency range.
The all-new Personal Audio Profile system allows you to create a unique profile tuned to your individual hearing, dynamically adjusting sound frequencies to each ear. Re-engineered HTC BoomSound™ Hi-Fi edition speakers feature the same separated tweeter and woofer design you see in leading acoustic systems, but combined with a dedicated amplifier on each speaker you get sound clarity that is unprecedented on a smartphone.
The HTC 10 boasts of the latest Qualcomm snapdragon 820 processor with enhanced LTE and a new PowerBotics system, which improves battery life by 30%, delivering up to two days’ charge. Each phone also comes with Boost+, making it easier to launch apps. Boost +’s App Lock function also adds a new layer of security byletting you lock any pp you choose, and App Manager provides an instant fix in those moments an app isn’t behaving.
The in-box quick charge 3.0 Rapid Charger, with improved thermal management, charges the battery up to 50% in just 30 minutes.
The HTC 10 will be available from April 2016 in four colour combinations: Carbon Gray, Glacier Silver Topaz Gold and Camellia Red.
