What We Love about the HTC One Max

The first thing you will notice about the HTC One Max is its size. The phone is huge, and dramatically so! You will definitely be turning heads with the HTC One Max no matter where you are.

In terms of performance, the HTC One Max is very impressive. The phone responds fast and has no drag when it comes to browsing the Internet, launching apps, or playing games.

We love the rear fingerprint scanner on the HTC One Max that lets you unlock your phone and launch your most frequently used apps at one go. Another great feature built into the HTC One Max is HTC has BlickFeedTM, which brings all your favourite content (weather, social network updates, breaking news) instantly via a live stream and refreshes automatically.

Next, the camera! We absolutely adore the  4MP/2.0 Ultrapixel camera with LED that captures 300% more light for gorgeous pictures. With the HTC Scribble feature, you can even draw on your photos and edit as you please.

Other features we love about the HTC One Max include its easy-grip matte finish, aluminium speaker grilles, powerful HTC Boomsound speakers with in-built amplifiers, and a powerful battery (approx. 25 hour talk time) that charges faster.

What We Don't Like about the HTC One Max

Firstly, the sheer size of the phone makes it nearly impossible to operate with just one hand. Also, at 217 grams, this smartphone is definitely heavy. The HTC One Max also feels more like plastic than metal, giving it a less-than-sophisticated touch and feel. We also found the video quality on the HTC One Max to be less than stellar. Lastly, the fingerprint scanner can sometimes be frustrating to operate.

All in all, however, the HTC One Max is a good-looking, powerful smartphone that lets you do more with your phone. It is intuitive, easy to operate, and comes with some really cool features.
