HTC 10 Review

This is, after all, HTC’s big gamble in the smartphone market. It’s the culmination of years of design iteration; the last valiant attempt from a company whose smartphones have gotten less and less appealing as those years have passed. Today, HTC is better known for its virtual reality hardware, and if the 10 isn’t a rousing success, we probably won’t see many more phones from the Taiwanese company.

To be fair, the HTC 10 is very good. It delivers great benchmark numbers, makes quite the splash with its cameras and is more impressively built than any previous HTC device. Yet it feels rehashed, like its designers took a look at all the popular phones on the market and tried to tick as many of those boxes as they could.

The HTC 10 is one of the top smartphones of this generation, and it’s going to make a lot of owners very happy. But don’t be surprised if this is the last major phone HTC releases. The company needed to surpass every expectation, and once again, it has fallen just a little short.

Design
Never has HTC made a phone of finer build quality than its HTC 10. The rigid aluminum chassis is svelte and hardy, broken only by two plastic lines for the phone’s antenna. More noticeable is the beveled edge along the back cover, a design choice that marks the phone as an HTC just as much as its logo. The camera, mounted in the center of the rear cover, protrudes slightly, but it isn’t a nuisance and doesn’t make the phone wobble when you set it down. 

From the back, the 10’s angled grace and weighty elegance make the phone a looker. From the front, everything feels generic. The device’s rim is a bit too wide, which makes the bezels around its screen feel wider – and therefore cheaper – than they actually are. The shape and placement of the phone’s fingerprint scanner is ripped from the Galaxy S7. Even the headphone jack is weirdly placed, in the center of the top edge instead of along the bottom. I had to tangle with stray headphone cords more than once during testing. 

The screen itself is a Super LCD display, offering 1440p resolution across 5.2 inches of real estate. That adds up to a more-than-palatable pixel density of 565 ppi. Expect crisp images, good colors and plenty of pixels to go around. Keep in mind, though, that this is no AMOLED screen, and its brightness in direct sunlight suffers.

Like all HTC phones, the 10 runs HTC Sense, a propriety skin that’s overlaid atop Android 6.0 Marshmallow. As skins go, Sense is wonderfully low-key; only a few differences separate it from stock Android. They’ve made an effort to shape their various apps around Google’s Material Design philosophy, which makes for a fluid app-to-app experience.

Cameras

By the numbers, The HTC 10’s camera is a looker. Its 12MP sensor is on par with what the Galaxy S7 offers, while the phone’s f/1.8 aperture is huge – not quite as big as the S7’s, but it trounces everyone else in the category. There is one rare inclusion: Both the front- and rear-facing cameras have optical image stabilization, which makes for crisp selfies when you jostle the phone around, trying to get all your friends in a shot. 

DxO, a company we’ve come to rely on for unbiased camera analysis, gave the HTC 10 a score of 88, tying the phenomenal Galaxy S7. While we normally agree with its image quality experts, this time around it feels like they didn’t get it quite right. There’s a noticeable difference between the HTC 10’s camera performance and that of the Galaxy S7’s – at the time of this review, Samsung’s smartphone still sets the bar for speed and clarity.
The HTC 10’s wide aperture makes it decent in low-light scenarios, but the phone’s relatively weak image processing leaves photos a tad blurry, especially given the built-in optical image stabilization. On the flip side, the 10’s front-facing camera is fantastic, offering 1440p video recording, 5MP photos and beautiful shots in good lighting conditions. 

Internal Specs

Unquestionably the strongest attributes of the HTC 10, the phone’s internal components are superb, matching the Galaxy S7 spec for spec. Its Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor runs incredibly fast and much cooler than Qualcomm’s previous system on a chip, so you can expect blistering performance.

We ran the HTC 10 through 65 separate benchmark tests, and it tied with the Galaxy S7’s performance. To be fair, this was expected, since they run the same chip and pack the same 4GB of memory. Even the storage options are the same: The HTC 10 comes in 32GB and 64GB models and lets you plug in a microSD card for up to 200GB of additional space. 
Practically speaking, the HTC 10 is one of the two fastest phones you can buy today. I didn’t find a game that chugged on its processor or notice a single missed frame as I scrolled through its menus and apps. That’s bound to change over time as apps get more intense and your phone gets bogged down by lots of background processes, but it’s not something to worry about right now.

Battery Life

A 3000 mAh non-removable battery powers the HTC 10. Despite being the same size as what you find in a Galaxy S7, the 10 actually beat the Galaxy S7 in our web browsing stress test by well over an hour. We suspect that’s thanks to the 10’s LCD screen drawing slightly less power than an AMOLED display. Web browsing tests tend to reflect real-world use better than processor-intensive stress tests, and in most cases, your screen is the biggest power-draining culprit in a phone.

Fitbit Alta Review

If you've ever been in the market for a fitness tracker, chances are you have heard of Fitbit. The company is the obvious leader in wearable devices, as per reports from market researcher IDC, but it has been facing growing competition from Apple, Xiaomi and Jawbone, which have all been grabbing attention in terms of brand power, pricing strategy and fashion sense.

The last of those is what Fitbit is focusing on with its newest tracker, the Fitbit Alta. At 15mm, it's the thinnest device the company has ever made, and it's being marketed as such - Fitbit calls it "fitness and fashion on display".

The Alta has a tiny, monochrome ticker-style screen which supports touch and shows an overview of your basic information - the number of steps you take, the distance you cover, the calories you burn, and your "active minutes", ie the amount of time you've spent exercising - plus a clock face and the time till your next alarm. Oddly, the alarm has to be set from inside the Fitbit app, not on the device itself.

The display works vertically and horizontally, though it can be a bit annoying to read horizontal text, in our opinion. As for the touch sensitivity, it's not what you're probably used to with your smartphone, as you have to tap things quite hard. You can double-tap the screen to bring up the clock face, and then single-tap to cycle through the rest of the data. It also lights up when you swing your arm up. This may not work perfectly for you in the beginning but with a tiny bit of practice, you'll be able to check the time handsfree akin to any analogue watch, even in the dark.

The Alta is capable of tracking everything we stated before, but it can't work with stairs since it doesn't have an altimeter, or your heart rate, which might be a deal-breaker for some. The default target is 10,000 steps or just over 2,000 calories - which you can then change according to your needs and ambitions. To help you achieve this target, it will send you reminders to move 10 minutes before each hour mark, which is great if you tend to have a sedentary lifestyle. It does so with the aid of short but encouraging messages ("Go for that 250!" is one example, 250 being a number of steps) and if you manage to complete said task, the Alta responds with another cheery response ("Stepped and scored!" it once exclaimed).

For those who are always on the move, the Alta comes with Fitbit's SmartTrack tech which is a fancy way of saying it can automatically detect when you're exercising. That's helpful for times when you wouldn't remember to manually open the app to hit the Track Exercise command, such as when taking an impromptu bike ride. Activities need to last at least 10 minutes to be counted as exercise, which is fine. The default is actually 15 minutes, but you can change it from Account > Exercise in the Fitbit app on your phone.

We went for a few evening walks without manually triggering the exercise option in the Fitbit app to check if SmartTrack does what it claims to, and it performed admirably. The app automatically detected a 24-minute activity and an 18-minute activity, exactly the length of our exercise tests. The step counter performed accurately as well, within a 3-5 percent range of what an iPhone measured (with an average of 2,400 steps a day). The Alta is limited in the types of activities it can track though - while it can detect walking, cycling and hiking, it fails with relatively stationarity activities such as weight-lifting, yoga or aerobics.

But SmartTrack is prone to false positives. On multiple instances during three separate car journeys in a week, the Fitbit app notified us that it had detected outdoor bike rides of 17, 34 and 17 minutes. That can be chalked down to the unevenness of Mumbai's road surfaces which probably felt like jolts to the Alta reminiscent of being on a bicycle. The Alta would also add a varying number of steps - anywhere between 200 and 350 - to our step count, when all we were doing was sitting in a car.

The Alta is also supposed to be able to know when you're sleeping - be it night or day - and in our experience, it recorded sleep with commendable accuracy. On 20 out of 22 days of testing, the Alta's accuracy was nearly 99 percent. On the other two days, it recorded errors amounting to 6 percent on average. The sleep reports include times you were restless or awake, which in our experience were less accurate. Thankfully, the Alta is sleek and light enough to wear to bed without any discomfort, unlike bulkier options such as the Fitbit Surge.

If you wake up during the night, say to answer a phone call or because it's too cold, but only move the hand that doesn't have the Fitbit on it, it will probably fail to record any movement. Sometimes, it can also work in the opposite manner. If you use your Alta-equipped hand to, say, check your phone, and then roll back to sleep for just 20 minutes more, the device might record that your sleep time ended at then, which was a tiny frustration but a frustration nonetheless. On one such occasion, the app terminated sleep tracking at 6:22am when in fact we were still in bed for another half hour.

The Fitbit Alta does have another sleep-related feature in the form of a silent alarm - found in most other Fitbits as well - which is great for two big reasons: it doesn't jar you in the morning with a loud noise, and it doesn't disturb others. The silent alarm works by vibrating the wearable on your wrist.

The Alta does three types of notifications - calls, messages, and calendar events - but only in a heavily limited fashion on iOS. They are restricted to your phone's built-in apps, so if you get a call via WhatsApp or a message on Facebook Messenger, there's no notification. You can configure it to receive notifications from some other apps if you're on Android. There's also no way to accept calls using the Alta so if you have wireless headphones or your phone on a dock, you will still need to use the phone or accessories' controls. Finally, SMS notifications show only around 40 characters of your messages, which means you can see the sender and beginning of a new message, but not its entire content.

The Fitbit app is available for Android, iOS and Windows Phone. Fitbit doesn't work with Apple Health or Google Fit, so if you prefer using them to keep track of your overall fitness, you're bound to be disappointed. For what it's worth, the company has had a lot of experience in designing and moulding its own software, and it does have a really neat and easy-to-understand interface. The company recently gave the app's Dashboard interface a visual overhaul, and you can preview it by going into Account -> Advanced Settings.

Apart from the basic information you would expect - steps, hourly activity, distance and calories - you can see how much and how well you're sleeping. As we stated before, this gives you graphs of the time you spent in bed, along with markers for when the Alta detected movement - be it restlessness or waking up. The weekly exercise tab displays which days you've hit your targets (and the days you haven't), serving as a neat motivator for most people. Fitbit promises a battery life of five days for the Alta, though with moderate usage we regularly managed to go over a week before it asked to be charged.

All the data recorded by the tracker is synced wirelessly to your phone in the background - if you always keep Bluetooth on - so you don't have to worry about losing any information. For those who wish to turn Bluetooth off, be it for battery life or security, the Alta can hold minute-by-minute data for up to a maximum of five days. If you forget to sync it or are away from the phone for longer than that, don't expect to have everything available. But, just like every other Fitbit, the Alta still retains daily totals for steps taken and calories burned for 30 days at a stretch so you'll have that at least much when you get the opportunity to sync again.

Coming back to the app, you can even log and track your weight with it. This can be done manually or automatically if you buy Fitbit's Aria, a smart weighing scale. Water and food, on the other hand, have to be recorded manually, and while it's easy enough to do, it can be a bit time-consuming and confusing to track all the food you eat. While the community-enriched database does have tons of items available to pick from, the need to know the right quantities and ingredients might make you give up.

The Alta was built to be a fashionable fitness tracker, and it does justify itself on that front, what with its 15mm thickness and sleek design. You can even take that up a notch by swapping the band for more colourful options, or ones made of leather or metal.

Only some accessories are currently available in India, with no word on when the rest will arrive. If you're looking for the most fashionable option, we suggest the metal strap (though it's hard to justify the additional price of $99.95, roughly Rs. 6,700). Not everyone might be comfortable with a metal band, more so if your skin has had a reaction in the past. However, the other straps aren't all that easy to use; you have to press a metal hook into a hole with force. It would have been great if Fitbit had thought of a magnetic clasp.

Another problem is the proprietary charging cable you need for the Alta, which is a gripe that applies to every Fitbit device ever made. Each Fitbit needs its own type of cable, meaning you're stuck if you end up losing yours. To add to that, a replacement cable would cost Rs. 1,500 but wasn't even available on Amazon, Fitbit's official India partner, at the time of this review.

That brings us to its final problem: the lack of waterproofing. Fitbit describes the Alta as "sweat, rain and splash proof" meaning you're okay if you briefly get caught in the rain, but you shouldn't take it into the shower or go for a swim, Fitbit says. By comparison, the less expensive Misfit Shine or thenewly announced Pebble 2 are completely waterproof up to at least 30m.

The Fitbit Alta meets the basic requirements of a fitness tracker, and does so in one of the best looking packages available today. However it's almost impossible to recommend the Alta for what it does when you can get the feature-packed Fitbit Charge HR at the same price. That's comparing it outside its intended market, though - there are people who prioritise fashion over features, and the Alta does look good when compared to the likes of the Jawbone UP3 which lacks a screen.

Pros

• Thin and stylish
• Accurate automatic sleep and activity tracking
• Great battery life
• Helpful hourly reminders to move

Cons

• SmartTrack sometimes detects exercise when there is none
• Notifications aren't very useful
• No waterproofing
• Classic and leather straps can be a hassle to put on

ONEPLUS 3 review

Here’s everything we know so far about the OnePlus 3, including the OnePlus 3 release date, specs, features, and price.

OnePlus provided one of the most interesting phones of 2014 in the OnePlus One, and two of the most interesting phones of 2015 in the OnePlus 2 and OnePlus X. It stands to reason, then, that we're looking forward to 2016's OnePlus 3 rather a lot.

The Chinese brand turns out well-built, well-specced Android phones with one of the most beloved Android UI customisations around - all for around half the price of your average flagship phone. We're expecting the same basic combination of price and performance from the OnePlus 3, although obviously scaled up to meet the sky-high standards set out by the Samsung Galaxy S6, HTC 10 and others. Leaked images of the phone appear to show few changes from the OnePlus 2 on the front, but the back appears to sport a similar design to the HTC One M9 – albeit black.

Specific details concerning the OnePlus 3 have been hard to come by up until recently, but rumours and alleged leaks have begun to appear. Rumours about the device include an upgrade to Android 6.0 Marshmallow, a new metallic design, and a Snapdragon 820 mobile processor. We also recently saw an AnTuTu benchmark readout that listed the specs as follows:

• Model number: A3000

• Android 6.0.1

• Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor

• Adreno 530 GPU

• 4GB RAM

• 32GB storage

• Full HD 1,920 x 1,080 pixel display

• 16-megapixel rear-facing camera

• 8-megapixel front-facing camera

Meanwhile, a more recent Twitter post by reputed leaker Evan Blass tipped the following specs:

• Model number: A3000

• Android 6.0.1 (OxygenOS 3.1.0)

• Qualcomm Snapdragon 830 processor

• Adreno 530 GPU

• 64GB storage

• 5.5-inch screen

• 1,920 x 1,080 pixel display

• 15-megapixel rear camera

• NFC

And a separate leak from Winfuture, citing specs revealed on Geekbench, suggest the handset willl actually feature 6GB of RAM, not 4GB. That's class-leading by today's standards, although we're not sure if that much RAM is really necessary. Of course, both could be the case. The OnePlus 2 came in both 3GB and 4GB iterations, for example.

We've also heard that the handset could price at 1,999 Yuan in China, which translates to around £210 – not bad, if it's true. In any case, there’s plenty more to expect from the OnePlus 3, so read on for all the latest on the next OnePlus phone.

Here’s what to expect:

LATEST ONEPLUS 3 NEWS

When does the OnePlus 3 come out? Before July 2016What’s new about the OnePlus 3? Android 6.0, Snapdragon 820How much will the OnePlus 3 cost? £220-250, probably

ONEPLUS 3 RELEASE DATE UK, US & INDIA –

 WHEN WILL THE NEW ONEPLUS PHONE COME OUT? 

Usually we’re clueless about release details for smartphones prior to launch, but not with the OnePlus 3. OnePlus global director Carl Pei already confirmed in an interview with Cnet that the OnePlus 3 will be here “by the end of the second quarter”. So before July, then.
That still leaves some uncertainty, so we can look to past OnePlus launches for further inspiration:
OnePlus 2 – July 28, 2015OnePlus One – April 25, 2014July is already ruled out (although OnePlus has missed deadlines before), and April has already been missed. That leaves just the tail-end of May and the whole of June for a launch. Time's running out, OnePlus.

OnePlus 3 Design – What will it look like?

We've also seen some slightly iffy renders of the device, but the veracity of these no longer matter so much thanks to the subsequent appearance of images of actual OnePlus 3 hardware in-the-wild. These photos - which have come from three different
sources - appear to reveal a device that borrows a few things from the HTC design playbook. They also hint at the return of the fingerprint sensor from the OnePlus 2.

SHOULD I WAIT FOR THE ONEPLUS 3?

It’s usually pretty easy to recommend OnePlus phones because they’re so cheap – although the invitation system tends to scupper that. However, this year is playing host to some seriously formidable smartphones, so OnePlus faces stiff competition.
Some of the top-tier smartphones on offer right now include the Samsung Galaxy S7, the LG G5, and the Nexus 6P – and they’re just from the Android camp. There’s also the iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus, both of which have received strong critical reception.
The advantage OnePlus has is, of course, its wallet-friendly pricing. But the Huawei P9, only recently launched, boasts similarly high-end specs and a similarly mid-range price point.
If you’re waiting for the OnePlus 3, we’d recommend seriously thinking about whether you’re also willing to go through the frustrating purchase process.

ONEPLUS 3 INVITE – HOW TO BUY THE ONEPLUS 3

We touched on the invitation system in the last section, and it’s an important point to bear in mind.
Since the launch of its very first phone, OnePlus has forced would-be customers through an egregious invite-only purchase system. Naturally, OnePlus fans are keen for the firm to drop the strategy with the next phone, but how likely is it?
We’d say you can probably count on seeing the invite-only system once again. OnePlus maintains that it helps the firm control stock levels, which is the only way the brand can stay in business. It’s also not a bad tactic for generating hype.

Fortunately, there is a small upside to all of this. OnePlus has shown that it does eventually make its phones freely available for purchase. What’s more, the time between day of release and invite-free availability has decreased with each handset. As such, we’d expect the OnePlus 3 to become available for anyone to purchase after not too long.

ONEPLUS 3 SPECS:

With nought but a sprinkling of rumours to go on, it’s tough to say exactly what components will go into the OnePlus 3. However, a recent Twitter post by reputed leaker Evan Blass is likely to offer the best view yet:
However, it's worth noting that there's a good chance we'll also see a 32GB storage variant, as rumoured by other outlets. It's also reported that there will be 3GB and 4GB RAM variants, although the Evan Blass post makes no mention of this.
It’s also expected that we’ll see two variants of the OnePlus 3, just like the OnePlus 2 – albeit with an upgrade. The OnePlus 3 is rumoured to ship with 4GB of RAM and 16GB of storage, or 5GB of RAM and 64GB of storage.
However, a recent leak on Geekbench suggests that the OnePlus 3 could actually arrive with a lofty 6GB of RAM instead – but is that really necessary? We're not convinced just yet.
There haven’t been any rumours about photography potential for the OnePlus 3. For reference, the OnePlus 2 featured a 13-megapixel rear-facing camera, and a 5-megapixel front-facing camera. Without any leaked information to go on, we’d recommend expected the same again with the OnePlus 3.

ONEPLUS 3 BATTERY LIFE:

The OnePlus 2 offered a formidable day-and-a-half of usage between charges, which is par for the course with flagship phones.
That was thanks to a 3,300mAh battery, paired with reasonably efficient components like a Full HD display and the Snapdragon 810. If the OnePlus 3 doesn’t make the jump to a QHD or 4K panel, we’d expect to see similar battery life once again.
What’s more, the Snapdragon 820 offers significant efficiency improvements over the Snapdragon 810, and Android 6.0 Marshmallow also improves battery management. All in all, there’s plenty of scope for a solid OnePlus 3 battery life.

ONEPLUS 3 SCREEN AND FEATURES:

The OnePlus 2 shipped with a 5.5-inch 1,920 x 1,080 pixel resolution display. That’s the same form factor as the iPhone 6S Plus, although it’s nearing the top-end of what most people are willing to hold.
The OnePlus 3 is rumoured to sport an identical screen, which is no bad thing. Unfortunately, the disadvantage of retaining a Full HD display is that the handset won’t be as VR-capable as QHD rivals like the Galaxy S7.
A supposed render of the OnePlus 3 seemingly revealed a brushed metal design, although it’s unclear how legitimate the leak is at this stage.

That same render also showed a phone with no fingerprint scanner, although with Marshmallow’s support for biometric scanning, we’d be surprised if OnePlus skipped over this now-ubiquitous feature.
And finally, we’re expecting to see the return of a USB Type C port once again. While USB-C hasn’t really taken off in 2016 like some thought it would, the fact that the technology appeared on the OnePlus 2 suggests it’ll appear in the OnePlus 3.
ONEPLUS 3 SOFTWARE: ANDROID 6.0 OR ANDROID 7.0?
We might be short on OnePlus 3 rumours, but software is an easy one to guess.
It seems highly likely that the OnePlus 3 will feature Google’s new Android 6.0 Marshmallow operating system. The company is already readying up the rollout of the software for the OnePlus 2, so launching a new phone with 2014’s Android 5.0 Lollipop would be an unforgivably curious move.
But will the OnePlus 3 use the upcoming Android N? Probably not, as that software probably won’t arrive on consumer smartphones until Autumn. OnePlus would need significant testing time before using the software on its handset, so we’d advise not expecting to see Android N on the OnePlus 3 for a long while.

It’s also worth noting that OnePlus now skins Android with its own OxygenOS software. It’s likely the OnePlus 3 will feature the v3.0 of OxygenOS, based on Marshmallow.

ONEPLUS 3 PRICE:

While we don’t know the exact OnePlus 3 price, it’s not too tough to make a guess.
Here are the previous launch prices for OnePlus handsets:
OnePlus One – £229OnePlus 2 – £239

Based on that, we’d expect to see the OnePlus 3 retail at anywhere from £200 to £250 for the base model, and up to £300 for the top-end version.

However, note that OnePlus says it doesn’t choose a price for its phones and build around that. Instead, the company says it chooses the best possible components, and then sells it at cost. As such, if the hardware starts to rack up financially, there’s no guessing what the price might be.
Perhaps our best clue comes courtesy of a recent leak out of China, suggesting that the OnePlus 3 will price at 1,999 Yuan locally. At current exchange rates, that works out at either £211 GBP or $309 USD. Both of those prices sound about right, although direct currency conversions are always unlikely.
