  15. This device is rated well. I’ve wanted to use it for so long. I need an unlocked device specifically and being a huge HTC fan. I’d absolutely love this.

  16. I love that it’s unlocked, gets quick software updates, and runs a near-AOSP version of Android.

  17. Oh man, I really need this baby; my HTC One M8’s charging port got fried and now it charges when it feels like it. I’ve been stuck with this crappy Samsung GS4, so the beautiful A9 would be an amazing upgrade.

  18. HTC, im waiting for your gift, im using an HTC 816Dual Sim and loving it my only complain that i can’t change the lock screen wallpaper, i wanted to upgrade to The A9 Since before but cant im in college and can’t afford a new A9.

  30. I think the best feature on this phone is the audio output. And truth be told, this new color of deep garnet is amazing. I’m glad HTC got adventurous with a new color!

  31. Bummer about the entry limited to the US only would have loved to get my hands on it.
    I love the variety of colours HTC went with in regards to the A9, you’re spoilt for choice .
    I’m kinda bored of my M8 and wouldn’t mind getting my hands on something new ..

  35. This would be an amazing phone to own. I’d like to try it myself, thanks for the chance, Andy!

  36. Just jumped from my M8 to a Note 5. I like it but do miss Sense and how easy it is to root HTC phones.

  43. Like the fingerprint reader, 3GB of RAM, OIS, the color, and the size (enough with the phablets already). Miss the BoomSound speakers, but maybe they figure out a combo that keeps them along with the fingerprint reader on the M9 successor?

  44. Tested this baby on Sprint last summer. Very nice handset. A great win for whomever takes it (me included).

  46. I’m still rocking the One M7, I love it. Battery life is not what it used to, sadly, but I’m waiting for the One M10. This could be a great replacement for my M7

  48. I own one and it’s amazing how fast and smooth it is! Really love above M8 or M9. And the camera rocks!

  50. I loved all the features of HTC, had the 7 and 8 but sadly T-Mobile didn’t have the 9 so I had to go with a different phone and I missed it terrible

  51. Always been a HTC fan as all their phones have been great. The design and functionality just works with each phone!

  53. The fingerprint sensor being on the front. After using the ’round the back scanners recently it isn’t as intuitive.

  57. The fingerprint sensor on the front AND the fact you only have to tap it to wake the device (instead of pressing it down until it clicks) seals the deal for me. Nicely done HTC.

  58. I actually really like the design of this phone, and it would be great if they could put BoomSound on it

  61. I’ve been an HTC fan for years. The A9 is a beautifully executed phone and I would love to own one. Garnet is also my birth month stone 😀

  64. Improved camera, fast and accurate finger print scanner, and premium aluminum exterior. I want the HTC One A9!

  65. I have had an M7 and am currently running an M9. Love them both. I need to get my wife on the HTC plan. She’s “stuck in another Galaxy”. 😉

  67. I would love to try out the audio chops on this beautiful phone, plus my wife needs a new phone …… Her Lumia 1520 is breaking and WM10 is not so hot…..

  69. I had the HTC one M7 and loved it! I have always been a HTC fan boy and am looking forward to the M10 because it should be out right around the time I am able to upgrade!

  71. You guys keep up the great work in providing source information on HTC products. I didn’t know that the unlock version works on Sprint . That’s pretty cool!

  72. Need to replace the 3.5 year ol Razr M I’ve been using since I lost my M7 in a cab….pls

  75. This is such a fantastic phone I would really love to get it and replace my mother’s lame cracked (of course) IPhone. Or give it to my girlfriend she has always wanted this beauty 😊

  79. Bought a brand new M9 while backpacking through Europe after my M8 was stolen. . . I absolutely fell in love with it! That is, until I got back to the States and realized that my days of having high-speed mobile data were over:-( Word of advice – don’t buy a new smartphone while overseas unless you thoroughly do your research! Even if they do tell you that it’s “unlocked” in the store. . . It sure would nice to win a free A9 to replace my now 3G-only M9 from the Czech Rep. (OPJA100). . . Wish me luck!

  80. Using HTC since 2008. Phones are simply great and you can actually feel the “Real phone” Quality when holding the devices. #HTCOneA9 you could be mine!

  81. Great design
    I hate the idea of no more boomsound
    This looks so promissing
    Hope htc woud make it to better adv.
    Hope to see a killer device in 2016

  82. Would love to give this phone a try, since it was the first besides a Nexus to be released with Marshmallow.

  83. The light but quality feel of this phone is surprising when you first pick it up. I want it to be my next device.

  85. I’ve had the M7 since oct. 2013. I broke the glass covering the camera a couple of weeks after I bought the phone, but never tried to replace or fix it and it still takes great photos. But the battery is singing its last verses and a new phone could be fun to have, especially if it’s given to me 🙂

  86. I wish this giveaway was international! Good luck to the participants! A device worth having!

  90. A great fan of the HTC products.Used the HTC one m7,m8 the desire eye the E9+
    all are awesome. cnt wait to use the A9

  94. I’m all about reppin’ HTC and 2TB of storage?! I would love for this to be my next HTC phone!

  95. Great color, and the colour is sublime. It defines it’s slim body. Come here my precious.

  96. I’ve always been a fan of HTC fell in love with the m7 but I gotta say the HTC A9 has a great design and looks to me like really good features hope I win good luck to everyone

  99. I am in the midst of launching my new fashion styling business and I currently have an iPhone 6. I would love to compare the photography differences when I do before and after pictures of clients who I have given a makeover! Fingers crossed. I’m sure anything may be better than this iPhone camera.

  103. The A9 is awesome for a phone that is not sporting a 805 or 810. No lag at all, and the camera is great!

  108. As much as it no longer has a set of BoomSound speakers I actually want to see how this device performs as it isn’t a “flagship”. From what I’ve seen, it can hold its own!

  109. I’ve used the phone in the past and really LOVE the home button/fingerprint reader. Nothing like pulling the phone out of your pocket, touching the button, and having the screen come on, unlock, and go to the home screen instantly.

  112. I’m a huge HTC fan and I’d love to try the A9 especially as we can’t get the 3gb ram version in the UK.

  113. The A9 design is superb, and the specs aint bad either 😉 I would love develop a kick @ss ROM for it 🙂

  115. I’ve been a HTC user throughout the long run and would love to see what HTC has to bring in the near future! 🍃
    Would love to win the A9!

  121. HTC makes the best phones out there, and this one is very interesting, I would like to test it someday !!

  131. I’ve had to replace my G4 twice due to the boot loop issue and was thinking of upgrading to the A9. This color is drop dead gorgeous!

  139. My favorite features of the A9 are its quick OS updates, clean high quality design, and a fingerprint button that works superbly.

  141. I love the fact that the One A9 has got a 32GB internal storage! That totally blows my device’s 8 GB memory to smithereens! Plus that garnet color is beautiful! I would love to win one!

  147. To me is the best phone i love HTC, there is no other company that can beat the quality and premium feel that HTC put on his phone and with android. There are the best

  148. I love the fingerprint scanner on the phone. It is honestly a really good phone (since my old phone got stolen). I also love the deep garnet color. It would be better if they removed the front logo off of it but it still good.

  150. I love HTC & HTC Source…I think the design is fantastic & would love to test Marshmallow Sense

  151. I have been an HTC fan since the G1 and haven’t had a phone from any other company! And I hope the A9 will help me continue the trend! It’s a great phone!

  163. @htcsource is the place where I get all my tech news from HTC and would love to win this beautiful A9

  164. Favorite feature has to be that it has a micro-sd card slot….good to see HTC still gives users that option.
