Compare The HTC 10 vs HTC One S9



The match-up between the HTC 10 vs the HTC One S9 is a real slugfest. While some might expect the HTC 10's specs to entirely outperform those of the One S9, the One S9 actually gets a couple of winning moments. For instance, the HTC 10 starts taunting with a quad-core 2.2GHz CPU, but the One S9 answers back with an OCTA-core 2GHz processor. RAM-wise, though, the HTC 10's 4GB RAM rises on top, outmatching the One S9's 2GB of RAM.

The One S9 houses a 2840mAh battery, which is slightly-less-powerful than the 3000mAh battery used by the HTC 10, but it manages to squeeze out a 658-hour 3G standby time (compared to the HTC 10's 456 hours of 3G standby time).

Display

On the display front, the One S9 also concedes to the HTC 10, as suggested by the differences that we found out. The HTC 10 arms itself with a 5.2-inch Super LCD 5 screen and its 2560 x 1440 resolution, versus the One S9's 5-inch Super LCD screen that only has a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. While both of their displays have Display Color Personalization, the One S9 misses out on the HTC 10's Motion Launch feature. The HTC 10's screen also shows off 546 DPI, which is 21.45% higher when compared to that of the One S9, with only 443 DPI. This one-sided victory might be one of the reasons why the HTC 10 was able to make it to our Best HTC Phones list as of July 2016 .

Performance

We find it a bit amusing to compare the performing capabilities of these phones. The HTC 10 is given a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 quad-core CPU that is clocked at 2.2GHz, while the One S9 gets a MediaTek Helio X10 2GHz processor that has EIGHT cores. At this point, it may seem to be a tight race in terms of processing performance. However, once we look at their RAM, we see that the HTC 10 surges ahead, offering 4GB of RAM versus only 2GB of RAM for the One S9. Another notable difference is exposed once we check out their storage capacities. The One S9 is unable to turn the tide, offering only 16GB of built-in memory, which yields to the HTC 10's 64GB of Flex Storage (a 32GB version is also available).

The One S9 is powered by a 2840mAh battery that yields 658 hours of 3G standby time, versus the HTC 10's 3000mAh battery, which only churns out a 456-hour 3G standby time. But for the actual 3G talk time, the HTC 10's battery will let you do a lot more talking, reeling in a 1620-minute talk time, which is 107.69% higher compared to that of the One S9, with only a 780-minute 3G talk time.

HTC 10 vs HTC One S9: Our Conclusion

With noteworthy differences in their number of CPU cores, display resolution, storage capacity, and RAM, our comparison between the

HTC 10 and the HTC One S9 can be considered as one for the books. Here is our conclusion:
  • With its 1620-minute 3G talk time, the HTC 10 looks to be a better choice for those who need to make and receive more phone calls. The One S9 does have a 27-day 3G standby time, but nobody buys a phone and just puts it on standby, right?.
  • If you need more storage capacity, the HTC 10 would be your best choice, offering 64GB of Flex Storage (a 32GB version may also be purchased).Those who need above-average processing performance might also want to pick the HTC 10 because it brings together a quad-core 2.2GHz processor with 4GB of RAM, which is more likely to be faster than the One S9's octa-core 2GHz processor, which is backed by only 2GB of RAM.
