Smartphone review: HTC 10 puts plenty of features into a well-designed package
Easy to pick up and comfortable to hold, the metal-bodied HTC 10 has powerful cameras with image stabilisation and manual control
I wish more Android phones were built like the HTC 10. I’ve tried a few of the flagship competitors – including the Samsung Galaxy S7 and the LG G5 – but I think the HTC 10 has the best design and feel.
The HTC flagship phones have had a metal body since their introduction, and they’ve given the 10 a new design with a few nice touches to make it stand out.
But if I’ve come to learn one thing about buying a phone, what’s inside is more important than the design. Inside, the HTC 10 can compete with the big boys, but is it enough to sway your buying decision?
Design and hardware
These days a flagship phone is lucky to have a feature or three that stands out from the crowd. The design has evolved to be curvier and the added bevels allow for a more refined design that’s easy to pick up and comfortable to hold.
