It's a handy and centralized place to get granular with your phone. More my speed is the Boost+ app, which lets you manage the phone's memory and storage as well as lock apps.

Available (like many others) for a free download, Freestyle puts a cartoony skin on Android, hiding app icons in "stickers" like a windmill for YouTube or a hot air balloon for Weather.

HTC offers the ability to download and create themes for its UI if you're more whimsical than I am, you might be interested in HTC's Freestyle theme. The place you might particularly notice the Sense legacy is in the App drawer, which scrolls vertically instead of horizontally. Otherwise, HTC continues its practice of de-emphasizing what had been its distinctive HTC Sense UI. (If you really love the Google Now launcher, it's easily obtainable.) So there's just one dialer and launcher - HTC's - and Google's browser, fitness app and notepad.

I reviewed an unlocked phone so I can't speak for carriers' software stack, but HTC is doing its part to pare down software by picking between Google's apps and its own.

Carriers and manufacturers far too often lard phones with apps that are already available as part of Android in an attempt to capture eyeballs or mindshare. The HTC 10 runs Android 6.0.1 (Marshmallow), of course, but there are some interesting wrinkles you'll want to know about.ĭuplicative apps have long been a problem in the smartphone world. But get this: Not only does it include the expected support of Google Cast (formerly known a Chromecast), but the HTC 10 also quietly supports Apple's AirPlay - the first Android phone to do so.

The phone has the usual array of wireless connections - Bluetooth 4.2, Wi-Fi up to 802.11ac, GPS and NFC - and motion sensors (although no heart-rate sensor). The phone supports Quick Charge 3.0 and can pick up a 50% charge in 30 minutes. Whatever extracurricular use you put the battery to, my stress test (using AnTuTu Tester and GSam Battery Monitor) pulled a little more than four hours out of it - again, comparable to the current crop of premium smartphones. Given the demands on smartphones, I'm skeptical: Perhaps the least-used sentence in the English language, after "That's the banjo player's Porsche," is "My phone has plenty of power I think I'll use it to recharge my computer." The phone uses a USB-C port to charge, and company officials pointed out that because USB-C (unlike any other interface) can move power in either direction, the HTC could be used to drive the electrical needs of other devices. The HTC 10 packs a 3,000mAh non-replaceable battery, larger than the 2,800mAh battery typical of its class. The screen is a quad-HD LCD, 2560 x 1440 pixels at a 564ppi resolution, covered with Corning's Gorilla Glass. Performance testing using the AnTuTu Benchmark resulted in a rating of 131030, showing that its processing power is on a par with other top-of-the-line phones. models of the HTC 10 (like the one I reviewed) are powered by a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 820. Their positions can't be changed in software. The back and menu buttons are capacitive and flank the sensor. There's a fingerprint sensor on the front below the display that doubles as a Home button. On a black phone, they're hardly noticeable (and the radio antennas have got to go someplace). The aluminum case has two horizontal plastic bands across the back and a plastic inset around the headphone jack. There are two speakers: High frequencies play out of the top phone speaker and lower frequencies emanate from a grill on the bottom.

The headphone jack is on the top of the phone and the USB-C power connection is on the bottom. Going contrary to competitors' practice, the HTC 10 uses separate drawers for the SIM and microSD cards, the former on the left edge, the latter on the right. Volume and power controls are along the right edge the power switch is textured to help distinguish it. At 5.7 oz., it's heavier than the iPhone's 5 oz. It's milled out of aluminum, doesn't pick up fingerprint smudges and has a solid, luxurious heft.Īt 5.75 x 2.8 in., it's about a tenth of an inch bigger in width and height than the Samsung Galaxy 7, and a quarter-inch bigger in both directions than an iPhone 6S. The HTC One's shape is a bit more dramatic: As deep as most others at its thickest but narrower at the edges, it falls more naturally into your hand. The typical high-end smartphone these days is a candy bar-shaped device, rounded at the edges to one degree or another. The HTC 10 tries to reclaim the company's standing, and it does a pretty fair job of it.
