Personally I dislike on screen buttons. Happy to see capacitive back. I don't understand why people dislike capacitive so much.

I prefer on screen because I haven't ever had a phantom touch with on screen. Every single phone I've ever had with capacitive buttons suffers from it. It got so bad on one of my phones years ago (the Captivate) that I had to get another phone.

Personally, I don't want any buttons on a phone. Once in-panel fps happen, what use is a power button? However, I recognize that the power and volume buttons have usefulness.

Doesn't the One Plus One phone have both? I don't see a problem with this. Truth be told I still have my M7 kicking around and although it is 4.7" as opposed to my M9's 5" screen. They have the exact same screen real estate because of the on screen buttons. If anything the M9 screen may be a bit wider, but watching YouTube videos in landscape mode it looks like same. I have no problem with the both options being present especially since unlike the M7 their is now an actually home button in the middle instead of just an HTC logo.

Yes it does and that's one of many things wrong with the oneplus one and two.

Here's why:

HTC Karate do yes, or no. Otherwise get a squish, just like grape.

Could you elaborate? Is it just going to make the skin unnecessary heavy to program the software for both options?

Oh, no. It's a minor amount of code added that has existed in hundreds of devices for years, including HTC devices. Drain on performance will be 0 or so close to 0 as to make all odds. It's a very minor issue when we get down to it that shows a failure of design philosophy, but it will have a real negative impact on very few, if any, users. This is the sort of thing that almost no one who doesn't spend too much time in the forums will ever be bothered to care about. It legitimately does annoy the heck out of me, I'm not trolling, but I realize in the grand scheme it doesn't matter much at all.

Aaaaaand bringing this thread back on topic. some (clear!) pictures of the HTC 10 have leaked: HTC 10: Nouvelles photos des déclinaisons grise et noire



Great hardware design.

Looks like an IR blaster at the top.

Not crazy about the blueish antenna lines on the grey version. Hopefully will be more understated on the finished product.

Lots of pics of the rear. I was kinda put out about the elevated camera lens. But then looked around and the 10 is the most minimal (based on most recent pictures) of that issue. Wish we had as many front pictures as there are back; but I am thinking most of 10's big picture pieces (most argued about) are on the front.

As it gets closer I am getting more excited. Hope to hear more about Sense too...

The back is definitely a refinement of the "One" design.... The front, I'm still... Meh. Maybe I'm the only one that loved having the front speaker grills on the top AND bottom.

I don't like the headphone jack on top. That's the only think I dislike about the design, and maybe the home button being too close to the bottom edge of the phone.

On the silver back are the lines a light blue? That's odd and first I've seen of that if it is. Maybe it is the light in the pic making it look that way??

Funny how everyone bashes down on apple and iPhones design but when Android phones take after the design everyone praises it and goes "woooow, finally a nice design", "finally I can go back to *choose your iPhone copycat*" and so on.
And no, I'm not a apple fan or iPhone user.

The HTC 10 leaks actually look more like a refinement of a common design that started with the M7 than any kind of iPhone copycat. It's the A9 that looks very similar to the iPhone.

That and this is an HTC thread... Apple's design came straight off of looking at an HTC M7.

Agreed! Don't like headphone socket at the top...Hopefully sense software will be designed so that the screen can be automatically flipped so that you could have headset socket at the bottom when you are reading or playing games on the phone...

 

[Bearcats98]

I am confused about headphone at top? Is it just to have all hardport connections at the bottom and in one place?

 

[McDoogie]

You put your phone in your pocket upside down, so that's why the headphone jack should be on the bottom. it just makes sense. The galaxy s7 has their jack in the bottom side. I'll wait to play with these two phones inside the store before I choose one. I love HTC and sense interface. The M7 was the first smartphone where I felt like I had a premium device. I'm using the M8 now and it's still a powerful phone. But now I'm torn, I'm very excited for this HTC 10, it needs to be great, but if it doesn't live up to my expectations I'll have to get the galaxy S7 and hope that the htc nexus phones will be better down the line.
