HTC’s One line first debuted<\/a>\u00a0last\u00a0February at Mobile World Congress. While there were some spec bumps in the form of the One V+ and VX in 2012 and variants in the form of the EVO 4G LTE<\/a> and the Droid DNA, HTC has managed to wait the year out before introducing the follow up to the HTC One. What’s the follow up called? The HTC One<\/a>.<\/p>\n While the name may be the same, that’s about it. Reviewers were impressed by the previous generation One’s screen, and you can expect them to be blown away by the 1080p 4.7″ display on the new One. We’re talking\u00a0468 ppi. Other specs are in the same impressive range, with a quad-core processor running at 1.7 GHz, 32 GB of storage, 2 GB RAM, and an impressive 2300 mAh battery. The latter is\u00a0 important to me, as the only issue I had with the EVO 4G LTE was battery life. Sprinkle in the usual Bluetooth, WiFi, NFC, and GPS for good measure, plus the interesting bonus of an infrared blaster that will potentially let the One serve as a TV remote for several popular sets and set-top boxes, and the new HTC One shows a jump in quality from its previous version.<\/p>\n There’s also been an update to HTC’s Android skin, Sense. Sense 5 will feature “Blinkfeed”, which is:<\/p>\n [A] bold new experience that transforms the home screen into a single live stream of personally relevant information such as social updates, entertainment and lifestyle updates, news and photos with immersive images so that people no longer need to go to separate applications to find out what’s happening.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Everyone who thinks this sounds like a cross between Flipboard and Windows Phone 8’s Live tiles, raise your hand.\u00a0As the two\u00a0aforementioned\u00a0services are less than perfect, it will be interesting to see HTC’s contribution. HTC has a pedigree here, because Sense has had social widgets\u00a0since back when it was called HTC Home and ran on Windows Mobile.<\/p>\n
