- HTC used to be a massive player in the smartphone world. It had innovative designs and some great phones. Over the last few years they have really just gotten lost in the mix.
While browsing on Ebay a while ago I find this time capsule of a phone. This is a HTC One M7, which was one of the GREATEST phones HTC ever made in my opinion. It’s a blast from the past and I’m so excited to check this phone out.

Still the best phone I've ever owned. Loved that thing.
I can totally see why!
idc what people say, that is the most beautiful phone ever launched
It is a really good looking phone, and has the build quality to back it too!
I loved that phone I was always turning the TV off on my siblings with it lol good times.....
I used this phone until December of 2020 and it was an amazing phone, it was kind of slow and I had issues with the battery (due to ageing), plus the camera was terrible but the quality of the phone itself was really good. I dropped it from different heights and the screen never broke. Legendary phone, 10/10.
My favorite phone. I dropped in water, still worked. It was ran over by a truck, screen broke to shit, it still works lol. Its now my music device
Holy crap, that device has been through hell and back. I’m genuinely surprised that it’s still working.
i bought htc one m7 in black and gold + m9 in gold all new cant wait to unbox them
It had its issues... Speakers, camera.... But damm, this one felt really good in hand! And it looked classy...
Very very very beautiful mobile phone set ever made 👌👍️
This phone was amazing when it came out. Easily one of my all time favorite smartphones till this day. I could not afford it back then as a student so I had to make sure my dad grabbed it lol
Yup! This phone was so much better than anything Samsung and LG had to offer. I was in high school when this phone was out too, and just looking back makes me feel old now haha.
@@Auto-Technica Yeah exactly, therefore it sucks to see HTC going through hard times now..even though this u20 5g model looks pretty decent, so maybe there are better times ahead..hopefully we are not like 60 by then lol
I still have this phone it just a beast
That's awesome! How long have you had it?
@@Auto-Technica almost 5yrs and still have it in working condition with broken touch glass😔
@@veerukoshta8815 Wow! That's impressive! Broken glass sucks, but glad you've still kept this phone going.
wanted this bad in my younger more formative days
my first phone in italy!!! memories
I remember this phone, I chunked it as hard as I could at the wall in a Sprint store cause the power button wasn’t working, they had a police officer bring it to my house and ever since it worked perfect for 2 plus years, One of my fave phone of all time!!!
I keep waiting for what's left of HTC to do the unthinkable and release a modern day equivalent, catapulting their popularity and fortunes, until the inevitable decay and demise, only to be repeated in an never ending cycle.
If they could release one meteorically exquisite phone a decade, every decade, I could enjoy that.
Can confirm that the accessories are 100% original. Or at least taken from another M7 or HTC device of the same era. Only things missing in the box is the headphones, which I remember being decent back in the day, and the plastic wraps. I just pulled out mine from high school, installing LineageOS on it and I'll see if I can use it for something lol.
I'm charging my one m7 right now! 😂
Haha! I actually had to go find a micro usb! My desk only had USB C and Lightning cables!
@@Auto-Technica me.too .htc one is a legend mobile .so timeless
@@nourdinamzian423 agree, especially the M7 and M8...
I have a m7 in Blue . Still use it as my second phone .
@@georgfranko I completely forgot they made this phone in blue! It was really rare! Silver was the most popular color.
Beautiful phone 💪 i miss HTC 🙏
Same! The phone world has gotten very boring recently. Players like HTC and LG used to really make it an interesting space!
this was my first phone, I got it as a hand-me-down from my dad, but he smoked a lot so it was gold
Holy crap, I didn't know that the silver was susceptible to changing colors from smoke. Have you tried giving it a good clean? Might just be on the surface and a bit of isopropyl alcohol with a microfiber cloth might be able to get it off.
@@Auto-Technica I tried and it was properly stained, but I had one of the rarest colors lol, ignoring how gross it is
@@radioflowers Ohh that sucks... What color is it?
@@Auto-Technica gold bc the cigarettes 😅
@@radioflowers ooffff that makes sense.
Great job bro.
I have it ( the dual sim version) since 2013, the box, the cable, the charger, even the great earphones untouched.
Your cable is not the original, the original one is flat with alittle curvature ( I mean it was not totally flat but alittle swollen or rounded with abrubbery feel).
Ahh gotcha! That's good to know! With a phone this old and being in used condition, I guess that's to be expected. I didn't know they made a dual sim version of this phone, that's pretty cool. Save this phone, we'll look back at it in 5-10 years and it'll stand out as a turning point in phone design in my opinion.
@@Auto-Technica I rechecked mine, the original cable is not flat but it has a lottle rounded end.
The flat cable which I was talking about by mistake was my lenovo k920 charging cable!
@@farisalfaris8120 Ahh okay! Thanks for the update, its good to know. :)
I still have mine but its bricked. Anyone know how to unbrick it? This was an amazing phone
I just fixed my dads old one and he gave it to me. The Htcs have a thing for… swollen batteries. 😂
I want to purchase it again. Can someone tell me where I can get it
Your best bet is online on Ebay or a similar website. I got mine from Ebay.
still have this phone until now. Sadly its just reaaally sloow. Wondering if installing custom rom would improve the performance
It would be a bit more usable, but unfortunately it'll never be fully usable. Apps have just gotten way more intense and heavy recently, and these older processors just can't keep up.
Would it still be able to keep Google Maps running? (if it's the only app running)
Compared to the iPhone 5s and Samsung s4 contemporaries, m7 was far more well made in design and form factor, It is akin to iphone 4 for how revolutionary it was.
Mine have it sine 2013 and updated to android lolipop. Main issue after d upgrade it heats up fast. And now its always draining batt faster
Yeah, sadly this phone is not really usable in 2021. It's fun to look at and mess around with, however it just no longer works well enough to use daily!
@@Auto-Technica i used it as a back up phone only and all i can say it does its work as a back up lols
Haha, that makes sense!
why cant recent phone maker follow HTC front firing speaker
It's because of the obsession with full displays without any bezels. I'll be honest though I do prefer the bezel-less look more so I'm willing to compromise on dual front firing speakers.
ITS 4 ULTRAPIXELS GOD DAMNIT
I loved my HTC One M7. I remember getting it and my coworkers being very impressed by it. The only issue was that the camera was awful. The ultra pixel system just wasn’t good at all.
Unfortunately HTC phones always had horrible cameras. I was looking through some old photos the other day taken with the m7. And they really were atrocious.
Anyway I had been a HTC fanboy every year since 2006 with the HTC MDA. Still weird not picking up HTC phones anymore. I’m basically have moved to the Apple ecosystem
I actually do remember they weren't the greatest with their cameras, but it was decent enough for the time. Interesting to hear that they didn't hold up over time! I used to love HTC too they made so really cool stuff and experimented a lot too.
@@Auto-Technica the only camera that I felt HTC nailed was the one in the HTC Amaze. A little known phone they made for T-Mobile. That phone was awesome. But the HTC One S was a massive drop. M7 was a step up, but still not that good.
HTC Amaze was a very underrated phone that no one talks about anymore.
@@MrBranh0913 I'd never even heard of the Amaze! I just looked it up and it looks peak 2011/2012! I really did hate when manufacturers used to make carrier exclusive phones, it was such a limiting factor that honestly just killed sales in my opinion!
I have its bricked version😃
Anyone wanna buy?
The one M8 was way better.
Objectively yeah, but the M7 was the one that started it all so it has more of a sweet spot in my heart.
i lost my htc one m7 ):
32gb it's still okay xD
I want to see a review of Realme 7 pro please 😅
Sadly Realme doesn't officially sell phone in the US, so I can't pick one up easily. Maybe the next time I'm in a country that sells it, I'll try getting one.
@@Auto-Technica
Thanks for your reply, appreciate it, keep up 🔥
@@omar-senpaiii No worries! :)
battery last forever compared to S4
