@@comingsoon...5439 ssame... I think I got the m8... dropped this bad boy like 50 times on cold hard concrete and still works like a charm.... they better bring this line up back
Yes , we have to ask which Phone nowadays has BETTER Speakers ? Sony has Stereo-Front Speaker too, but they are not that loud and have less clear bass/highs.
Htc one series is the best smartphone of all times. You can say all you want about the ultrapixel camera but this phone gave me the most desired and satisfied feeling that I can never get anymore with modern smartphones that all lost their identity with generic and similar looks
This was the last phone where phones were exciting with each release, genuine innovation and each manufacturer stood out. We have really plateaued since then
Are u kidding me? Yea we probably have plateaued in terms of design, but not specs. Flagship phones nowadays are superior in all aspects, from software to hardware, even in battery life.
I literally dropped mine out of a window on a second story, watched it bounce down the roofline above the patio, then fall 10+ feet onto concrete....it got nothing but a small scratch on the bottom left corner...
The One M7 is what started my android infection. Shame the M7, M8, M9, Ten, and U12 Ultra could never last a full day on a single charge, even when rooted, rom'ed, and Greenified.
We need a "revisiting" series tbh. Not just for phones, but laptops and tablets as well. Laptops probably not in the scope of this channel though. Especially highlighting how much more life you can get from old Androids that people think are obsolete to today's standards by customizing and enhancing unofficially.
Loved this review! I have an M7 and I refuse to change it for anything else. Stunning to look at, its the most beautiful phone ever made. Upset that HTC never continued on its trajectory. Until something more beautiful comes along, I'm keeping it 😄
The HTC One M7 was my first true smart phone :). Always loved Blinkfeed. That, and the M7's metal and volume design was just perfect. HTC could have been great
This phone was literally The Holy Grail of Android. The pictures I took at this car show back in 2014 are stunning even in comparison w my IPhone 12 ProMax
I’ve still got mine in my draw upstairs as a backup phone. Still my favourite phone of all time tbh. I do remember using it for a brief period in 2019 when I broke the screen on my HTC U11, it was dreadfully slow and the battery lasted a few hours at best but it was still a beautiful phone
Great video! I remember the HTC One (M7) was the first mobile phone that caused me to switch from the iPhone to Android. I was so enamored with the design of this phone and the speakers. I thought it was, hands down, the best looking smartphone I'd ever laid eyes on. And I believe it sill is one of the most beautiful mobile devices ever made even by 2024 standards! And the speakers back then bliew me away! And I believe they still hold their own to this day! Thank you for a nice trip down memory lane. BTW, I still have a brand spanking new M7 now in my vintage phone collection. I'll pull it out every now and then and you know what? It's still one of the best feeling handsets to hold EVER!
I moved to Samsung after my one m7. Funny thing is i still have my m7 and it still works, none of my Samsung still work. It lives on my desk and i use it daily as my tv remote, the only phones ive enjoyed nearly as much as much have been my OnePlus 3t and current 6t. The m7 was a fantastic device
@@ThatShitGood yes it did. I didnt know when i was purchasing it that it did but i noticed a tv app and gave it a try. The power button is an ir blaster
Was quite impressed with your review on this HTC One M7 smartphone, I'm very sad that some of these companies stop making smartphones, LG being the latest... I want to take this time to thank you on bringing this Company and their smartphones thru a kind memory of what these pioneering companies had in mind when it came to the overall experience. Once again I wanna thank you from one tech enthusiast to another, and until next time✌
These old phones speed up astronomically with a custom OS. I flashed Lineage OS Android 9 on my Nexus 6 a few yrs back and the phone resurrected, zero slowdowns while on google's android 7 the phone was laggy.
This was my first smartphone, I still have it and although the battery isn't that great, I love the HTC Sense 5 UI, Blinkfeed on the left, the integrated beats audio amp, camera app, gallery all had a distinct and significant style and feel to it. I wish HTC was still around to make such awesome phones.
The gunmetal M8 was such a great looking rugged design. I'd kill for the same design on a modern flagship. Same with the grey LG V10 with the metal side rails
My mother died young and before she died I had the HTCM8. She modeled for a photo shoot for me and she used some very beautiful dresses. Having a full manual control, the M8 was wonderful for getting all kinds of different shots at really any angle. Yes I did not like the four megapixels but, when the photos were printed, they came out amazing. Really the only time the four megapixels was a problem was when cropping in. Outside of that, she was never happier with the photos. Especially since some of them thanks to HTC being able to take full resolution photos before hitting the shutter button by cashing the photos, which mind you even modern phones, don’t do cashing with full resolution, but thanks to that, I even managed to get some sneaky shots of her , as she was making decisions on how to pose and what props to use. And because it were natural photos, since I didn’t have time to really think, they came out amazing. The camera was amazing even nowadays it still holds up as long as you don’t crock and you don’t Need to blow the image up. Let’s face it, most people don’t even print images much less print them large. If they print, it’s usually going to be a 2 x 3 or a 4 x 3. The rest of the time they put them on social media and social media is always around 3 to 4 megapixels. so all you get is a compressed kind of potato version of what the HTC gives you. HTC gives you four clean megapixels and Facebook will give you four potato pixels lol.
M7 is my favourite phone. This video brought in so many memories with this phone. M8 comes at a close second with this video and please please please make a M8 video too!!!
I had the sprint one and loved it, just had everything I needed and did it well with no issues. Excellent battery life, badass headphone amp on the 3.5 jack, the speakers sounded better than my tv and the screen was bright and beautiful, the software was smooth and fast, it’s like they cared about the experience of the phone both with hardware and software, the keyboard was perfect, the radio modem made having sprint actually a good experience being so high end at the time, the camera wasn’t the best but acceptable, I still have it but it’s falling apart and barely boots cause how old the battery is
Don't forget , the power button doubled as a IR blaster and google had a play version that ran stock android. Mine was rooted to run both sense and the stock android with a reboot.
Unbelievable that this is already 9 years ago! I loved this phone so much for it's visual design, but hated it for it's software and usability. This design is really iconic, if there was a remake of this phone with modern hardware, I would immediately buy it.
Late 2023 check in here. Loved this phone! I think about it often when I think about when phones were fun. Fun and not just "which has the biggest this? Which the fastest that?" That cold touch in the morning feeling a solid built smooth and beautiful piece of art that happened to also offer the best available. (especially in the UI area) Especially during the era or cartoony and toy feeling Samsungs. It just FELT premium. One can only hope a modern manufacturer takes this approach and knocks it out the park! 🤞
*The HTC One M7 is one of my favorite smartphones I'VE ever owned. Sharp LCD Display, Incredible aesthetic with the appeal of the BOOMY front-facing speakers. It would've been a top 5 ALL time in the 2010s era if:* - They envisioned the ultrapixel a smarter way, and used it in the FRONT instead of the back (like we see in the 10). - Used some way of software pixel binning and used a higher resolution count for normal daytime use, and binned down for more light/clarity at night (Sony did this back then) - *Heat.* I don't know about you guys, but my M7 often got so hot, I, unfortunately, had the purple fringe problem down the road. - Battery life was never good, only subpar, but didn't mind it with the first HTC One. It progressively got worse with its successors though.. Other than that, man, I wish I hadn't given my phone away to a relative..I even had it S-OFF, which was hard to do lol.
I LOVED my M7, even with its broken camera and shitty battery life i ran everything on this, sense, the google play edition rom, MIUI 7, Flyme OS this body with a full screen display and i would buy it again in a heartbeat
I own the red and black versions of this phone today and I have very similar thoughts.the red is by far still one of my favorite colors and designs on any phone.im typing this on my new galaxy s 22 ultra...white 512 gb.i own over 100 phones and the HTC one m7 is still one of my favorites. Thanks for the video. Loved the throw back.
Omg.....I really wanted HTC phone back in the day but they were so expensive here where I live! My friend had the M7 and omg it was such an awesome phone!
The m7 and m8 changed everything, they helped HTC become one of the first companies to genuinely start competing with apple back in the day. Won't ever forget my sensation xe with beats 😢❤️
i totally agree with you, HTC back then was a true amazing piece of art, the boom sound, 3.5, camera was unique (or at least back then), the design and lastely the softoware. sense5 and its weather, clock, everything is where it should be.
I'm still using it! I love it so much since 2013 that i have learnet how to fix it every time with little expensive replacing part finded on ebay. Actually i have 4 m7, 2 working, 2 for parts. Android 5 still work well and the sense 6 in the best interface i have ever experienced on a phone. At work i use Huawei Android 9/10, it's a cheap toy in front of my htc one m7 😂
I feel lucky i lived those great times in HTC Phone had that X one and S one and both where amazing with way better cameras than 90 % of phones. Great video.
The M7 was my favorite Android device. When it came out it really turned some heads. The design of the device was years ahead of its time. unfortunately, you can't find a beautifully made device like this, and with the rise of wireless charging, I doubt we will see any metal device like this for a long time.
I ordered one of these in Australia and the seller just completely botched delivery (delayed for like months). Eventually, gave up and called HTC because I REALLY wanted the phone. They passed me up the chain until an HTC employee literally just delivered one to my house and told me to cancel my order with the seller. I haven't had another HTC since (I love my pixels) but I've gotta tell you, that stuck with me. Amazing service.
Oh...you bring back all those good memories of using and owning HTC One...Ditto that I miss HTC..its a shame...whole HTC phone team got bought over by Google...
This phone, just like Nokia 3310, has a special place in part of my tech heart, not only because I won it as a prize, but it was a masterpiece holding it in a hand.
it's still this day, the best smartphone i've ever own period. the hardware was perfect. HTCsense was perfect. Boomsound, perfect. HTC feed, perfect. HTC theme, perfect.
Between iPhones, this is the only Android phone I ever loved. Built like a tank! I accidentally dropped /threw it while riding my bike... - very much like that ultimate drop / stress test that CNET did... Which is why I bought it in the first place. (Because I really, REALLY hated the fact that the iPhone 4S had a glass backplate. That backplate literally broke in the first week, when my cat pushed it off an 80cm high cabinet and it landed on the laminate flooring)... That M7 landed on its corner on the concrete, and it was fine. The display was amazing too. Perfect combination between size and screen resolution. And the camera was good (for me) - good in low light. AND the first smartphone camera I had seen that produced proper slow motion video! The 'blink feed' part worked a little like the message center on my Blackberry Bold 9780. Which is something I miss to this day.. That message center made me so much more productive.. And the speakers were just great. That Beats algorithm worked very well. (Plus, I think they really tuned the EQ to the capabilities of the speaker cones. They went LOUD and bass-rich and clear) This phone was way ahead of its time. the curved back was both ergonomic, and - looking back with current knowledge - I think it allowed for the bigger camera sensor, having the lens a bit further away. so there was very little deformation near the edges of the photos and videos.
What a beautiful device. One of the best phones ever! I had the M8 which was pretty much the same device. An M8 video would be great! One of the first phones with more than one camera.
I had that phone and absolutely loved it. But when the update came the camera turned purple when it was dark. But than I leant it to a family member and completely forgot about it. Told the person to take care of it but then about three or four months later I found the protective OtterBox case broken outside but no phone to be found. I was truly upset they didn’t take care of that phone.
I got the HTC One Max and it changed the way I buy phones. I have never bought a phone since without stereo speakers and up until recently I made sure they were all front facing. Sadly front-facing isn't much of an option anymore with today's flagships. Although I've got to say the speakers on my Z Fold 2 Rock considering they are not front facing. Great video, it was a blast from the past!
One of the best looking, feeling, and sounding phones of its time. Anytime i mention my all time phones, the M7 is in the conversation. How I miss those htc phones!
My HTC one m7 was my main phone and personal wifi hotspot until yesterday, from 2014-dec.2023!!! The battery has swelled up, and I have already found and purchased all the OEM parts to replace the battery, the silver aluminum back and the usb charging port. Hopefully I can resurrect this classic excellent phone!
The front facing speakers and ultrapixel PAVED THE WAY..I just wish they used the 4MP for the front then find a way to use that binning technique for the back 😤😤
Enjoyed making video, would you guys want to see a “revisited” series? If so what should we cover next?
Nexus 5
Sony Xperia Z series
moto x
Alcatel Flash 2
Nokia N9
This design is timeless. I still like it today.
I'd agree if the bezels were a lot slimmer.
This is the most comfortable, handy phone ever made. The speakers were so badass back then ❤️
Really miss the true HTC dna
Droid DNA was cool too, sad HTC isn't really big in the smartphone market.
I am looking this video with HTC One M8 Eye😃
Still in very perfect condition😎

Omg those front facing speakers were legendary.
Now it's basically Sony who still retain this feature
Still don’t understand how it didn’t become the standard….
Yes , we have to ask which Phone nowadays has BETTER Speakers ? Sony has Stereo-Front Speaker too, but they are not that loud and have less clear bass/highs.
I know the speakers where insane
I have them in One Plus 7 pro. Hidden under screen. But yes M7 was the best phone I had.
I miss dual front facing speakers.
Sony Xperia 5 mkii
You'll need to look for the latest Sony phones
Pixel xl 2 was the best when it came to front facing speakers
iPhone
I daily a 1 mark II. The speakers are good.
I miss phones like this. Hopefully HTC can make a One series again and bring this design back.
Htc one series is the best smartphone of all times. You can say all you want about the ultrapixel camera but this phone gave me the most desired and satisfied feeling that I can never get anymore with modern smartphones that all lost their identity with generic and similar looks
The Note 3 and Lg V20 may have something to say about that.

I literally dropped mine out of a window on a second story, watched it bounce down the roofline above the patio, then fall 10+ feet onto concrete....it got nothing but a small scratch on the bottom left corner...

Lol you should have tried the M9.
But this phone is legit a better phone for listening to music even compare to a 2020 iPhone.

@@prkrmc6457 The HTC 10 had the best set of included headphones, I still use them

Same, i left iPhone for this and never been back since
I HAD THIS PHONE 😭 It was the blue version and I loved it so much. I remember feeling so cool with my speakers, metal build, and 1080p display.
Currently watching this on TV and the M7 kept on the shelve above it like a masterpiece. You can't beat that design 💯
We need a "revisiting" series tbh. Not just for phones, but laptops and tablets as well. Laptops probably not in the scope of this channel though.

The HTC M7 was the peak for HTC. The desires were great too. The M8 was the start of the end… ☹️
Yup, when the M9 came along, it started to go down since then.
True, they did peak with the M7. The M8 was good but underwhelming

- Used some way of software pixel binning and used a higher resolution count for normal daytime use, and binned down for more light/clarity at night (Sony did this back then)

I love this phone. One of the best, most well designed phones ever. Everything was well thought out and all components were high quality.
Still looks really good. Wish some of the big names of today would release “throwback” designs from the early 2010s.
I always love when a Tech RUclipsrs visit some old phones and review those
I LOVED my M7, even with its broken camera and shitty battery life
i ran everything on this, sense, the google play edition rom, MIUI 7, Flyme OS
this body with a full screen display and i would buy it again in a heartbeat
When you say "broken camera" do you mean the low light issues?
Front facing high end stereo speakers are superior to a full screen display imo.

I went to a concert and was amazed at the sound quality I got with the mics with this phone. I was a huge fan of HTC phones EVO, This, the Inspire ❤
Owned this phone, and was the best!! Especially, the front facing speakers.
This phone, just like Nokia 3310, has a special place in part of my tech heart, not only because I won it as a prize, but it was a masterpiece holding it in a hand.
That design was so ahead of its time
I love how much this video is comfortable to watch also these legendary devices bring back some old memories.
The design of the m7 is timeless! 💕
So great to come across this clip - htc One is my forever favorite android phone. Definitely missing the feel of the design.
It is now 2024, and I still believe that the HTC One M7 is where phone design peaked. Wish they'd revive it with new specs.
it's still this day, the best smartphone i've ever own period. the hardware was perfect. HTCsense was perfect. Boomsound, perfect. HTC feed, perfect. HTC theme, perfect.
Between iPhones, this is the only Android phone I ever loved.
Built like a tank!
I accidentally dropped /threw it while riding my bike... - very much like that ultimate drop / stress test that CNET did... Which is why I bought it in the first place.
(Because I really, REALLY hated the fact that the iPhone 4S had a glass backplate.
That backplate literally broke in the first week, when my cat pushed it off an 80cm high cabinet and it landed on the laminate flooring)...
That M7 landed on its corner on the concrete, and it was fine.
The display was amazing too.
Perfect combination between size and screen resolution.
And the camera was good (for me) - good in low light. AND the first smartphone camera I had seen that produced proper slow motion video!
The 'blink feed' part worked a little like the message center on my Blackberry Bold 9780.
Which is something I miss to this day.. That message center made me so much more productive..
And the speakers were just great.
That Beats algorithm worked very well.
(Plus, I think they really tuned the EQ to the capabilities of the speaker cones. They went LOUD and bass-rich and clear)
This phone was way ahead of its time.
the curved back was both ergonomic, and - looking back with current knowledge - I think it allowed for the bigger camera sensor, having the lens a bit further away.
so there was very little deformation near the edges of the photos and videos.
M7 M8 my best phone, loved it
I had the M8, I really loved those awesome speakers. It looks so tiny now, still miss it.
An iconic phone design, and the first Android phone I considered buying. The designer, Scott Croyle, was snapped up by Apple after the M7 and M8.
They could make a comeback. I think those old school designs can still hold up.
What a beautiful device. One of the best phones ever! I had the M8 which was pretty much the same device. An M8 video would be great! One of the first phones with more than one camera.
I had that phone and absolutely loved it. But when the update came the camera turned purple when it was dark. But than I leant it to a family member and completely forgot about it. Told the person to take care of it but then about three or four months later I found the protective OtterBox case broken outside but no phone to be found. I was truly upset they didn’t take care of that phone.
The phone was simply ahead of it’s time in SO many ways
I have HTC one sitting in my desk, still remember how great it was when I got it.
I was a very big HTC fan
I hope they make a come back
Please make more videos about HTC
Thanks Gerry
I got the HTC One Max and it changed the way I buy phones.
I have never bought a phone since without stereo speakers and up until recently I made sure they were all front facing. Sadly front-facing isn't much of an option anymore with today's flagships.
Although I've got to say the speakers on my Z Fold 2 Rock considering they are not front facing.
Great video, it was a blast from the past!
My first smartphone ever! What a classic!
One of the best looking, feeling, and sounding phones of its time. Anytime i mention my all time phones, the M7 is in the conversation. How I miss those htc phones!
My HTC one m7 was my main phone and personal wifi hotspot until yesterday, from 2014-dec.2023!!!
The battery has swelled up, and I have already found and purchased all the OEM parts to replace the battery, the silver aluminum back and the usb charging port. Hopefully I can resurrect this classic excellent phone!
One M10 was the best HTC device. Though, m7 paved the way for everything.
I used the M10 it sucked.. the only good thing was the amazing buid quality.
The front facing speakers and ultrapixel PAVED THE WAY..I just wish they used the 4MP for the front then find a way to use that binning technique for the back 😤😤
Bro you're everywhere 😂
