Introduction
The HTC One is the masterpiece of the Taiwanese company, hence the name. It combines HTC's traditions in making aluminum unibody phones with the absolute latest tech available - some of which exclusive - to make what is perhaps one of the best all-rounded packages set to come out on the market in the first half of 2013.

The HTC One is like a supercar - it's the best that current technology has to offer and while not everything is completely practical, it looks and handles great and is ready to wow its owner. And much like a car dealership, HTC is ready to offer you money if you trade in your old HTC phone - it's $100 or the value of the old phone, whichever is greater.
The biggest bullet point in the features list is the camera - a 4MP "ultra-pixel" camera. Yes, the resolution sounds too low, but this camera marks a first in the mobile phone imaging world, which puts it next to the Nokia 808 PureView and Lumia 920.
Speaking of a feature list, here it is. The One (camera aside) is basically a Butterfly with bumped up specs and a cool aluminum unibody.
HTC One at a glance:
The camera is backed by ImageChip 2, which enables some advanced functionality. It takes the Scalado tech we first saw on the HTC One X and puts them into overdrive.
HTC is trying to move away from Android slightly. Yes, it's still a full-blown Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean, but the new Sense UI version 5 transforms the interface into something that isn't instantly recognizable as Android, including a brand new homescreen and a gesture-based replacement for the menu button.
The company is also playing up to its audio strengths - the usual Beats Audio is on board, but there's also BoomSound for the stereo speakers on the front of the device, which allegedly put out up to 93dB of sound. Then there are the HDR microphones to ensure good call sound quality.
Coming in August 2013 at around Rs.25,000 .
