Description

Clad in an aluminum body, the HTC One Max looks like a natural addition to the One and One mini - three's a family, and now HTC has most every market niche covered. It's not a unibody design, though, so thankfully you can pry off the battery cover and add a microSD card for more storage to load all those movies you are going to carry. The battery compartment is sealed, but it's a 3300 mAh unit, so no sweat, at least until we do the first battery tests. The phablet is not for the faint of heart, though, as with its 164.5 x 82.5 x 10.29 mm dimensions and 217g of weight, it is one "supersized" handset, as HTC itself is calling it in the description. You get your excellent BoomSound speakers at the front, but the back strays away from the One portfolio design paradigm, adding a flat and square fingerprint scanner, which can unlock your handset or start up to three favorite applications immediately upon touching it with three different fingerprints - a pretty svelte idea.

This device is also known as HTC T6

Phone owned for less than 3 months

I had the HTC DNA,&I got this.I'm very happy. Love love big screen.I can record a video&take pictures at same time.I love it.in Gallery,it puts together a bunch of photos&video(if made at same time).u can choose themes,choose music.it's really nice.after u take a photo u can adjust the lighting&coloring so it can be perfect,your way.a great phone.it's thinner than DNA.this phone makes the DNA look tiny,Lol.it's wider too.I like that.u watch utube,the picture quality is amazing. Can see wrinkles on faces,that's how crystal clear this is.I've had Thunderbolt, Droid Razr (was worst phone),DNA,&now this.I tell u,this is my favorite by far.the U.I.is easy to understand. Not like Razr,it was horrible. HTC is known for great UI's. I always seem to stick with HTC.I understand it easier.I love this phone.it's plenty fast enough.it's just like any computer, the more u have on it,the slower it goes. But this doesn't go that slow.u definitely recommend, especially if u like HTC.I chose this over the new M8,because of it's size&battery power.I can stay on 100% for hours,even using it some. Lasts long tune on standby.up to 25-30hrs.of use.it's great. Happy I Gordon the Max! I bet u will be too.

HTC ONE MAX best Phablet

Posted: Apr 08, 2014, 5:27 AM

Phone owned for less than a year

HTC Makes best phones than any other company available in the market. HTC phones have superb build quality and the most amazing thing it has is the Sense UI. They customized the phone in such a way in which you get most advance features which are hardly available in any other brand which are being sold. HTC has never compromised the way they design and finish their phones it feels you are holding a gem. Samsung makes plastic body which are seriously nothing in front of HTC. The Aluminium finish gives a classy touch.

THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE NOT USED HTC MUST TRY THEIR PRODUCT ONCE YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED!!!

Best 6 inch Phaplet around.

Posted: Mar 19, 2014, 10:40 AM

Phone owned for less than a month

The first HTC Phaplet and one of the best 6 inch device around with great screen and fabulous boom sound speakers packed with great battery life. I love it more than Note 3 and 1520, yes camera isn't on bar with the best out but still an excellent camera plus HTC add flash to focus that missed on HTC one if you want take still at dark area. Fingerprint scan works just fine I don't why reviewer complain about in every single review?! Learn before you try.
