HTC One M9 contrasts Samsung Galaxy S6 with rival

At this MWC show, HTC and Samsung have launched their own new generation of flagship handsets. Since the release time is close to each other, the outside world naturally also inevitably put these two mobile phones to compare. The Technology web site TechRadar A detailed comparison of the HTC one M9 and Samsung Galaxy S6 in a few days ...

HTC One M9 employs the latest 64-bit 骁丽 8,108-processor, which doesn't have a performance problem whether it's playing a big game or playing 4K video. With 3GB of RAM, HTC one M9 has been among the most powerful smartphones on the market.

As for Galaxy S6, Samsung abandoned Qualcomm's chips and opted for its own 64-bit Exynos 74,208-core processor. Plus 3GB of RAM, the phone's performance is even stronger than M9-at least on paper.

In terms of software, Samsung's new version of the TouchWiz has improved the previously criticized shortcomings. The number of preinstalled applications is now significantly reduced and the user interface looks cleaner. While experiencing lollipop, users should not encounter too many distracting elements.

HTC One M9 also carries the lollipop operating system, and the new Sense 7.0 customization interface brings more intelligent widgets that can be rearranged based on the user's different status (work/home/go out).

HTC One M9 has no surprises in its design and looks very similar to last year's M8, still a fully metallic one-piece fuselage. But in contrast you will find that the fuselage length of the M9 is reduced, but the width is slightly increased.

Samsung this time finally abandoned the constant plastic fuselage, for the Galaxy S6 equipped with metal frame and glass back cover. Although the aesthetic design and S5 similar, but the materials used to give people a higher level of feeling. The S6 has a narrower border thickness, but without a waterproof function, the battery becomes irreplaceable.

HTC One M9 's display is still 5 inches 1080p, making it slightly behind S6 compared with last year's absence. But as the LCD panel for color and contrast enhancement, its screen performance is not much worse than S6.

Galaxy S6 's Super AMOLED material 5.1-inch QHD display is one of the finest smartphone screens of the time, and the 600 's highest screen brightness is stunning. Last year's Galaxy S5 already had a very versatile display, and S6 's screen performance should be even better.

Last year's HTC one M8 a little discussion and controversy over camera parameters. This year, HTC moved the M8 's 4 million-pixel UltraPixel main camera to the front of M9 's fuselage, used as a front-facing camera. The latter's main camera turned 20 million pixels.

Although the Galaxy S6 is less than M9 in terms of parameters, S6 's 16 million-megapixel camera behaves much better than M9 in earlier tests-but HTC also promises to optimize upgrades in the future.

HTC one M9 's battery capacity has been upgraded from 2600mAh to 2800mAh, considering that M8 's performance has been very good, and the M9 of capacity increase should not disappoint us.

As for Samsung, the Galaxy S6 has a battery capacity of 2550mAh, which is lower than last year's S5 and no longer supports replacements. But it is still too early to draw a conclusion as to the endurance of the device.

In addition to configuration and appearance, HTC one M9 also adds Dolby Audio technology, which can bring virtual surround sound with or without headphones. The all-metal one-piece fuselage may be the biggest feature of the handset, but it is a pity that it has failed to upgrade to the QHD resolution display.

At the same time, the Galaxy S6 's fingerprint-recognition function is said to have been greatly upgraded to almost the same level as Apple TouchID. In addition, the display can be said to be the most exciting feature of the phone.

Given that two handsets are not officially on the market, it is a little early to judge the merits. But from the information currently available, these two devices have a very good quality. However, the HTC one M9 1080p display has a certain gap compared to the Galaxy S6 QHD display.

However, the increase in resolution will also put pressure on the endurance, and with a 2800mAh battery, M9 's endurance is likely to be better than the S6. But this also needs to wait until the actual test results.

HTC one M9 and Samsung Galaxy S6 can be said to be two very close to the flagship handsets, determining that consumers ' final choice may be the brand rather than the product itself. Whichever you choose, it won't let you down.
