The Sprint HTC One

Sprint loaned me an HTC One that I have to return to them.

I’ve written about AT&T’s HTC One before and it’s one of my favorite phones. HTC makes great phones and since the phones are so similar across networks I like this one too. The thing I like and noticed that’s different from the AT&T HTC One and this one is that this one is much slimmer and excellent screen and I like the gray/silver color that it has. The HTC One’s full metal body features a slim, solid construction with tapered edges for a satisfying grip, and it’s complemented by a brilliant 4.7-inch Full HD 1080p display that resists scratches and reduces glare. It’s powered by a 1.7 GHz quad-core processor, and it’s packed with 32 GB of storage and 2 GB of RAM for excellent multitasking.

Crafted with a distinct zero-gap aluminum unibody, the HTC One is ready to reshape your smartphone experience with a live home screen that streams all of your favorite content, a photo gallery that comes to life, and dual frontal stereo speakers. This 4G LTE-enabled smartphone runs Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean), which combines with HTC Sense to create an amazing mobile experience that’s been re-imagined from the ground up.

With the HTC Technology it has an amazing camera on it. You can quickly shoot vivid, true-to-life images with a wide range of colors, even in low light conditions — it lets in 300 percent more light, enabling you to take photos indoors without a flash. And this is accomplished not by increasing the number of megapixels in the camera, but by engineering a more advanced CMOS Sensor, ISP, and optical lens system that captures significantly more light than most 8 or 13 megapixel cameras.

With HTC Zoe mode, press the shutter and the HTC One automatically captures up to 20 photos and a 3-second video — including the last second of images before you tapped the picture button. It can also create a 30-second Zoe Highlight film from each event comprised of Zoes, photos, and videos with professionally designed cuts, transitions, and effects — just ad your choice of pre-loaded soundtrack. These highlight videos can be remixed or set to different themes, and can be easily shared on social networks, email, and other services.

Multi-axis optical image stabilization for the rear camera also helps ensure video footage smoother whether stationary or on the move. Other features and effects include enhanced 360-degree panorama, time sequencing, and object removal. Self portraits and video are also easily captured via the front-facing camera, which supports 1080p video capture.

That’s mostly what I use a phone for nowadays. I take photos of my family and all the activities that I’ve been doing and share them across all my social media. So I really love a phone that makes it easy to do all that.
