Unfortunately in low light, this drops to 69 and there is a loss of detail in video in both bright and low light. Equally, colors can be undersaturated and there is a tendency towards color clipping, too.įor video in bright light, the noise performance was excellent, scoring 92. The flash is effective and shows good uniformity across the frame however, shooting with flash leads to a loss of details and there is strong noise present in the corners of the image. The M7 was a fantastic phone that blew people away with its high-end materials and design. When refocusing from macro through to infinity, it can also sometimes risk overshooting. In many ways, the One M9 is a victim of HTCs early success. Looking at the autofocus, it is reliable in bright conditions, but can be just a little slow compared to others we have tested. The white balance can tend towards green in bright light, and the colors are oversaturated in low light, but there is very good detail preservation and texture when shooting in bright light conditions, although there is strong luminance noise present.

The curved back helps a lot, and at least it isnt slippery like some other phones are. It is certainly the case that the M9 is better for still photos than it is for videos. The HTC One M9+ is a little awkward to hold and its 168g weight feels a little unbalanced. Video performance is about the same, dragging the overall score down slightly. The HTC One M9 actually does show a slight improvement in photo performance compared to the M8. Its score is good enough to put the HTC One M9 into 21 st place alongside the Amazon Fire Phone, but below top performers such as the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, which is currently on top with an higher DxOMark Mobile score of 86. With an overall DxOMark Mobile score of 69, the One M9 shows few improvements over its predecessor, the One M8. However, the One M9 achieved the same DxOMark Mobile score as the M8, putting it outside the top 20 in the rankings…. It does feature an updated camera module with a 20megapixel resolution, so we’d hoped for an improved showing in our industry standard lab tests. It’s more evolutionary than revolutionary, though, with a design that looks very much like its predecessor. It comes with 2GB RAM and 16GB expandable internal memory, and packs in a 2,840mAh battery.
