At #MWC15 , HTC announced the highly anticipated smartphone HTC ONE M9.

One M9 has a 5-inch full HD display, 8 core Qualcomm 810 Snapdragon processor. It comes with 3GB RAM, 32GB internal storage and a 4 ‘UltraPixel’ front-facing camera. To bulk up that storage a little, there’s also 100GB of Google Drive storage space included with the M9.

HTC has dropped the UltraPixel setup and put a 20-megapixel sensor and dual-LED flash. It does use the same autofocus exposure algorithm as the front-facing snapper, which, HTC says, helps it to take more detailed photos in low-light conditions.

HTC has also dropped the additional spatial imaging sensor found in the M8, but that’s not such a bad thing, given the slightly gimmicky results it produced.

The company has once again focused on sound and media playback for the M9, so you’ll still find dual front-facing speakers and a high-res display for your images, movies and gaming.

HTC said the One M9 will go on sale from March 31 in a number of markets, including Europe and the US.
