This is the biggest troll I've seen by a company in a long time. Spigen already leaked the device and HTC is covering their tracks.

This doesn't add up. Upleaksposted a detailed description of the device before anyone had any official render and then evleaks posted a photo. Then that fake German site posted a photo to counter it (which is this device) and then Spigen confirmed leaks' render.

Upon second thought, I think I'm going to wait for the next iteration of the One series. If they play this right, they could have people on a two year cycle much like Apple does with the iPhone. The o

I'm hoping its a troll tactic. They put a lot of work into the deception which is amusing in itself.

Yeah, I don't understand all this hoopla if they will release the m9 with the same damn design as the m8. I really do want to think that they really are trolling.

Even if it looks like the M8, it'll still be a step up from my beloved M7.

I'm crossing my fingers and hoping for a miracle that a Phablet will be announced together with the M9.... but keeping my expectation low at this point as so far all the rumors leaked pointed to otherwise

It looks good, but still way too similar to the original M8. We'll see how their sales go. I'm not as excited for it as I once was, but we'll see.

Yeah same here. I thought for sure the M9 was going to get me back to Android but since it appears to be pretty much the M8 with better internals I will probably pass.

if that's the final version, it's pretty much the perfect Android phone. the only problem with the last M8 was the camera and maybe the power button placement, now that they've fixed that, there isn't a single thing I can see wrong with it...assuming battery life is good.

I'm curious because I see comments like this every once in awhile. Does that suggest that there is something wrong with the M8 or just the fact that it's not a big enough change? I could see that for people that are M8 owners but if not, what is the complaint about it not being different enough? Please don't read this as a challenge I'm just curious about the thought process on a comment like this.

I used to have the HTC Evo and loved it. This latest range of phones from HTC I would never buy. Way too much bezels and I don't want an HTC logo to take up real estate. I'd rather have the logo be a home button with back and multi-task buttons next to it.

I agree minor physical changes but I think the camera, 810, bigger battery and Sense improvements are very significant.

Will there be a Sprint specific variant of this phone? The bands, as reported by GSMArena don't seem to show this being a CCA compliant phone. http://m.gsmarena.com/htc_one_m9-6891.php

Based on the info from the site it seems like there is only one model. Details are still coming out by the minute.

Smh, not too impressed with the all too similar design but spec wise it's great. Honestly though I am really feeling the s6 edge so I may end up getting one of each.

I actually think it's pretty hard to go a step up from the design of the M8 and they managed to do that. Putting the buttons on the side of the device stops the complaints about having to reach the top of the phone and the improved camera is a welcome addition. People have been saying that the camera isn't that great but they've also made note that the software that it's running is also far from final. The software experience is actually really smooth too, according to many websites.

 

Needless to say, this will probably be my next phone. The Galaxy S6 looks like an iPhone copycat. I understand that they're trying to build a more premium device this time around but some part of the phone look like they copied and pasted it from the iPhone which really saddens me.

 

Edit: The GS6 also has no microSD card. What is that about?

The specs in question are for the international variant.  Remember, that site is called GSMArena.  I would not reference it for anything Sprint.

I was all about this one, but like you, the S6 Edge has now caught my eye. I didn't like the curved edge on the Note Edge, but the dual curved edge... My my I'm in love.

      Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.

      Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.

      Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
