HTC 10 or DTEK60

[ericykchan]

Now HTC 10's price has fallen to the same as DTEK60 here in Hong Kong, a bit struggle to decide which one to buy.
Posting this question here might not get the most unbiased answer but since the 10 has been out for a while people have a lot of experience with 10.

both phones seem to provide excellent performance. It seems HTC 10 has better audio via headphone and camera, DTEK60 has Blackberry Hub which is great and bigger screen.

Posting this on the 10 forum, I'm going to assume the majority of active users on this thread are going to recommend the 10. Myself included. I use a Samsung S7 Edge alongside my 10 on a daily basis and I can't imagine ever using the S7 Edge as much as I use the 10. From the fingerprint scanner to the screen touch input, nothing beats it. I'm also a mild audiophile and the 10s performance with audio is unmatched as far as I know. The V20 is comparable I believe. The cameras are awesome. I honestly don't understand how this phone didn't do better in the market it's the complete package for a smartphone. I'm sure the dtek 60 is a great phone. I owned a blackberry priv for a little over two months and that phone was great, but the 10 in my opinion is the holder of the smartphone crown for 2016(haven't used a pixel)!

I use the Hub on my 10, just download it.

I had a Priv before this which I loved but the sea destroyed it...

I love BB's software suite, and I'll consider a BB again when I upgrade in a year.

I'm a former Blackberry fan, had them from the early days up through the Z30. I've tried the android versions of the BB software, and I will tell you that the experience is simply not as good as it was in OS10. The whole thing is a bit stitched together and kludgey - I don't think this is BB's fault, rather these are limitations placed on android apps by the OS. One of the great things that BB excelled at was handling of notifications, and their android versions (as you'd get on the DTEK or HTC10) are severely hobbled in that regard.

So I have the HTC10, downloaded the BB apps, used them for about a week and decided that there simply wasn't enough value added. I've been able to tweak the HTC10 to perform the way I want it. I absolutely love the phone - it has been really undersold. The only nit that I have (coming from BB) is the lack of a multicolor notification LED. That's it - and I've gotten around that by tweaking my notification settings so that I only turn the LED on for something important. I've found that Aquamail and Signal are very helpful in this regard.

My advice - the HTC10 is a great phone. This is the first Android phone I've had that has been 'set and forget'. I don't mess with it a lot, I've got it setup and it runs fast without performance hiccups or crashes. It is a solid piece of hardware. Pictures are good. Sound is good. Display is awesome. Battery life is great. Voice quality is good. Form factor and build are fantastic. Sense is great - very lightweight with all the features you need and none that you don't.

The phone also receives regular updates. I've received three, while my wife with an international unlocked S7 has received one (minor) over that same time period.

HTC 10 every day of the week if those are the only two choices.
