HTC One M9 Coming To India Really Soon

The first big launch of MWC 2015 is now out of the way. The HTC One M9 has been leaked well before it official announcement. In fact earlier in the day, we had seen a hands-on video of the device and now the M8 successor has been officially announced.

At the press conference, the company has announced that the HTC One M9 will be releasing to some select markets, including India, later in the month. Wow! Isn't that cool?

HTC One devices always look good and the tradition continues with the M9. One of the big changes, however, is found on the back, where the duo camera setup from the One M8 has been dumped in favour of a single 20MP snapper.

It's not the end of HTC's ultrapixel dream though, as the M8's main 4UP camera now resides on the front of the One M9, providing solid low-light performance for all those important selfies.

You'll find the same 5-inch, full HD display on the One M9, while the front facing Boomsound speakers have been given an injection of Dolby Audio technology.

The HTC One runs on Android 5.0 Lollipop and HTC's latest user interface Sense 7. It's focussed on customization, and there's a new Themes Editor application to help you apply that personal touch to your device.

Storage fans will be glad to hear the One M9 keeps hold of its microSD port to go with the 32GB of internal storage. In addition to this, there's 100GB of free Dropbox for two years for anyone who picks up the handset.

Under the hood, Qualcomm's new Snapdragon 810 processor is in charge of running the show with 3GB of RAM to play with, and the battery size has been boosted to 2800mAh. We hope the increase equals more usage between chargers.

You'll be able to pick up the HTC One M9 in three colour combinations, gold on silver, gun metal on grey and gold on gold. Sadly, there is no word on the pricing.
