how's it going guys my first steiner here with technobuffalo with a hands-on for you and we're going to be looking at the brand new HTC One a 9 this sucker is brand new it is a little bit of a departure as you're going to be able to tell from the changes in design that might look a little bit familiar to you I can think of at least one device in particular that sports this kind of metal back with antenna bands and a very similar speaker grill down at the bottom but we'll move on from that because this thing's claim to fame is it is the first non Nexus device running marshmallow and it's not just running marshmallow this is actually HTC Sense again so it is HTC Sense but underneath the sense it's got enough sense to be running marshmallow in 2015 which is pretty cool which means that this fingerprint scanner down here on the bottom which does work indeed when it is off which is nice watch ready boom we're in that fingerprint scanner does indeed work with the new AP eyes that are available in marshmallow which is great underneath the hood it's running a snapdragon 617 that's an octa-core processor clocked at 1.5 gigahertz that's one of snapdragons newer processors and it does come with a feature that we're gonna talk about just a second terms of storage it's got 32 gigs on board and three gigs of RAM under the hood now let's talk about that 617 really quick this is one of the new chips that's from Qualcomm from I believe it came out last month it not only supports quick charge 2.0 it's also forwards can paddle that's not something that you hear very often it's forwards compatible with quick charge three point 0 which is up to forty percent faster than 2 point 0 so this should get you a full battery in just about no time over here on the side you'll see there's a couple of sin doors and those aren't both sim doors there's just one similar they've gone so far even to make sure that they're labeled for you so written sim right there and SD right here so you'll be happy to hear that it is indeed expandable via SD all the way up to 2 terabytes which is pretty cool it's going to be coming to the US with all the bands that you would need for all your gsm carriers that includes band 12 so that's exciting to hear I can't wait to start using more devices on band 12 I know John's crazy about then 12 so I'm pretty stoked on those high speeds on tmobile as well that camera on the back again just a smidge similar to maybe a little familiar to something you might have seen on the market with the round flash in the round lens that is not an ultrapixel camera does not have an ultra pixel sensor but you do get an ultra pixel sensor up here on the front facing camera just not on the back the back is a 13 megapixel camera with a 2 point 0 aperture nothing else in terms of bells and whistles something crazy no oh I asks or anything like that the device so far feels pretty okay in the hand you know that the device is that it's emulating aren't exactly you know the worst on the market my only lament is that it is really kind of done already I i miss HTC in its heyday you know we were just having a conversation in the office about the HTC hero and the nexus one and all the great devices that we look back on from HTC so nostalgic Lee and I just don't feel that way about them anymore not to mention i feel like the bezels on both the top and the bottom we're just way too big i'm not sure why there's an entire HTC logo down there when we've got one on the back i realize that i might be confusing who made this device but it is definitely an HTC device so this is the HTC One a 9 let me know if there's anything that you guys would like me to check a little bit more thoroughly between now and the full-on review but in the meantime just want to make sure you guys had a quick hands-on with the device let me know what you think about it in the comments again let me know what you want to see in the full review as always thank you guys for watching the kind of one another and i'll catch you in the next video
