Smartphone HTC One Max – for some rather small tablet Even if the “phablets” are already on the market longer, there are still colleagues, you can surprise her. The reaction is then something like “What’s that for a big thing?”, Then someone will take the device in your hand, it leads to his ear and simulates a telephone conversation. “It looks so totally daft,” it says then. The indication that the HTC One Max still pants-and certainly fit into a into a jacket pocket, making one or the other but curious.
HTC earlier this year had unveiled its new flagship smartphone One, which has now become the little brother of the current model. Already in the middle of the year came the mini version of the one on the market and now we keep the “One Max” in his hands, which belongs to the category of phablets. All three versions have the same elegant design: silver-colored aluminum housing, broken by white plastic inserts. In the one – and the Mini – fascinated by this design, particularly because the case was made of a piece. The industry calls this “unibody” case.
Unfortunately, with metal lids
This design is no longer the One Max This has bothered us at first, because it seems less dibasic. The unit has a rear-panel aluminum cover, which you can remove such as Samsung devices. This handle has to make to insert the SIM card and micro SD card and change, a rare luxury. A bit of pushing and pressing and then snaps the lid. The problem is another: The lid does not close completely sealed off and is in three places – although minimal, but ugly – somewhat. He is also – like the HTC one – slightly arched. One specifies the device on the table to tap it, it bounces back and forth.
full- HD resolution, stereo sound and a screen at 5.9 inches One Max can be set up via the browser. This is somewhat unusual, but makes perfect sense. After turning on a link is generated after a few steps, which lets you log on via the Internet and the device configured. HTC is already at this point that his idea of ??Android is close to the “Google-Original”. It is not overloaded with additional apps like Samsung and special functions, but may make its operating system in a clear and minimalist. There are even own HTC apps, but they are enjoyable hidden in the background.
surface like Sense still
Sense interface like in version 5.5 still. The decor is very clear and has integrated functions of previous versions of Android. Sense just makes a tidy, unfussy and friendly impression. The device runs Android 4.3 (Jelly Bean). Thus, there are default folders for media, Google applications, productivity or extras. The view is vertical. HTC still limited to two buttons, the “Back” and “Home”. With double clicks and 2-finger wipers has full Android functionality.
Links to see the flashing feed, right back to the fingerprint sensor very handy app for the TV remote control is also back on board. By using the infrared port, the Max converts to a full remote control for their television. With this app, also a program preview is linked. The application can be configured by the cable provider and brand of the TV can be specified.
scribbling and painting
New is the doodling app. A type notepad accepts commands via the keyboard or Fingergekritzel. In everyday life, this app is very handy for quick shopping list. It can also insert photos, all arranged linearly with each other. Doodling a bit reminiscent of Evernote. To get there, by the way can also send the doodles.
Also new is the fingerprint sensor on the back of the unit below the camera. To activate it, the user must delete the five times with the same finger over the sensor. For safety, you are still a password. What the fingerprint when the device is intended to leverage may also specify: unlock, camera app, Overview of all apps, etc.
Decent screen and very good camera
display with Full HD resolution and a size of 5.9 inches looks very neat. It has good contrast, does not reflect as much as the other manufacturers. But the colors are not as brilliant as about the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 The camera is like on the One with poor resolution, but the pixels themselves are larger and thus more sensitive to light. These technical details have a visible effect on the images. We have taken pictures indoors with artificial light and were surprised by the quality. They are high speed, high contrast and low noise.
The longer we the HTC one Max used in everyday life, the more was the anger at the removable back gone. It sits well in the hand, yet fits in the jeans and makes an overall stable, sophisticated impression. This phablet also impresses with its understated, clear and obvious sense surface. The camera has no problems with shooting indoors and still can not beat the app to operate the TV. Who it is not too stupid to make calls with this giant smartphone on the ear, has a generous display, which makes some applications more clearly and can be used for emergency as a mini TV.
