HTC One M9 – Gives in to 20 MP Camera
HTC is yet again worshiping its original HTC One design, with some subtle and a few meaningful changes, the most prominent being the use of a full fledged pixel rich rear camera on the rear side for detailed images you can lavishly zoom in on.
The ultrapixel camera stays, and is now shifted to front side, which sounds like a very interesting proposition for selfie lovers.

HTC One M9 might not be as ambitious, and perhaps doesn’t provide enough reasons to upgrade from One M8 either, but it is still a great high end smartphone.
