The HTC One M9’s main camera features 20 megapixels and a sapphire cover lens to protect it from scratches. The camera also shoots movies in 4K resolution. Low-light shots are addressed with the UltraPixel front-facing camera. Dynamic auto exposure and UltraPixels that capture 300% more light than standard cameras to deliver sharper, more natural and balanced self-portraits in any lighting condition.

The HTC One M9 guarantees a larger-than-life soundtrack courtesy of HTC BoomSound. The HTC One family’s iconic dual front-facing speakers, now combined with 5.1 channel Dolby Surround sound3 simulation, deliver cinema-style surround sound even without connecting headphones or external speakers.

The playlist feature also allows multiple smartphones to share a speaker with Qualcomm AllPlay.
