The HTC One 9 smartphone has a 5-inch full HD display along with a 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution at 441 ppi.

Corning Gorilla Glass 4 has been added for protection.

It is powered with a 64-bit octa-core Snapdragon 810 processor and comes with 3GB of RAM. It has an internal storage of 32GB which can be further expanded upto 128GB via microSD card.

The smartphone runs on HTC’s Sense 7 skin on the Android 5.0 Lollipop.

The sensors included are Ambient Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Compass Sensor, Gyro Sensor and Magnetic Sensor.

The smartphone will support a Nano SIM card and in terms of connectivity, the device has Bluetooth 4.1 with aptX, Wi-Fi IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac, HTC Connect, for wirelessly streaming media from the phone to compatible multi-room audio system, NFC and Micro-USB.
