Reviews around hardware (4.37 of 5)

  • My issue is the hardware
  • The hardware is very powerful and the software complements it very well
  • With all that being said there are three reasons that I can't seriously be recommend this phone, first it will not be upgraded to Windows 10 which is ashamed because it clearly has very capable hardware.
  • if you know what to realistically expect from a windows os phone this has great speakers/hardware
  • Love the blend of the great hardware that HTC makes and the ease of Windows Phone

Reviews around os (3.90 of 5)

  • - I am a huge fan of the Windows Phone operating system, and it is really nice to see such a powerful, useful and beautiful OS on such a high end phone
  • Its sad to see one of the biggest software companies fail so badly at making a mobile os
  • While it's not hard science, controlling for most of the variables shows that Windows Phone is the superior OS in this regard
  • Sucks that windows 10 mobile isn't out , but 8.1 on this phone is really fast and responsive, a little get used to this OS but in a good way such and open device.

Reviews around camera (3.55 of 5)

  • It's not that the camera is necessarily bad, just for a high-end phone there are some better alternatives if you're looking for high-end quality pictures on a mobile device (ie
  • I would say the biggest weakness of the phone is the camera.
  • If you are one who needs a good cam I would hold out until the new model with a better camera comes out, it is out over seas and coming to the states soon.
  • The camera is also not as good as the ones found on similarly priced phones
  • Perhaps the only negative is the camera, although I say this as an extremely minor complaint

Reviews around display (3.44 of 5)

  • The screen on this phone has one of the brightest and clearest displays that I've ever seen on a phone

  • I are besties and I never have to worry I am forgetting something.
  • Color reproduction is great, not overly saturated like AMOLED displays tend to be
