HTC is expected to unveil its next flagship smartphone – the HTC One M10 – at the Mobile World Congress technology show in Barcelona, next month.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Little is known about the next-generation flagship, although serial leaker Evan Blass has just given us our first hint.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"If you like the A9, you'll love the M10," Mr Blass tweeted.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Admittedly, Mr Blass has a somewhat patchy record when it comes to HTC but his tweet could be the first real small clue to the direction the Taiwanese firm is taking for the M10.</div>

The One A9 sports a curved Gorilla Glass display that blends with the svelte, aluminium frame. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
HTC ditched the large, square camera module it used in the M8 and M9 in favour of a round iPhone-esque camera that protrudes from the case.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The HTC smartphone also featured the same chamfered edges and circular volume holes which Apple debuted with its iPhone 5 design.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Apple has been criticised for copying HTC's industry-leading unibody smartphone designs in the past, so maybe it's only fair the Taiwanese firm inspired itself from the best-selling iPhone 6.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And if serial product leaker Evan Blass is right, we can expect a similar look for the HTC One M10.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
HTC dropped the dual front-facing speakers that defined its iconic One M7 and One M8 in favour of a small speaker grill at the base of the device, like the iPhone.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It would be disappointing if this trend continued. </div>

We'd love to see HTC come flying out of the gate at Mobile World Congress with a stylish new design for its latest flagship smartphone. </div>

HTC's next smartphone sounds like another iPhone clone

<div style="text-align: justify;">
HTC's new smartphone looks like an iPhone, feels like an iPhone and – somehow – is actually more expensive than an iPhone.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
HTC has always been a market-leader when it comes to stylish smartphone design.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Taiwanese technology firm has built some staggeringly beautiful devices, including the brushed aluminium unibody HTC One M8 and colourful Desire Eye.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Its designs have been so consistently impressive that many have accused other leading manufacturers of pinching their finest ideas.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But now it appears the shoe is on the other foot.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
HTC's new One A9 looks like it was separated at birth with the world's best-selling smartphone – Apple’s iPhone 6.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Fortunately, like the iPhone 6 before it, the One A9 is a stunning bit of kit.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Its all-metal chassis is slim, sleek and lightweight, making it a joy to hold in the palm of your hand.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The high definition five-inch AMOLED display keeps your content looking crisp, shiny and full of colour – but it's not in the same league as flagship devices from Samsung, Sony or LG's Ultra HD displays.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Powering the One A9 is Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 617 processor which offers a slick performance for most tasks but, once again, lags behind the speed of its flagship competition.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
For most users this slight lack of oomph probably won't be an issue but power users should probably steer clear of the One A9.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
HTC's 13-megapixel rear camera produces some pretty decent images, and the bundled image stabilisation is a nice bonus.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In good light, we were left impressed by what the One A9 had to offer but, like most smartphones, the camera soon starts to struggle when the sun sets.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Selfies are handled by HTC’s UltraPixel front-facing camera. Neither shooter is going to worry Samsung or Apple but for most amateur photographers they'll do enough.</div>

If its video you're after, the HTC One A9 can shoot video up to a maximum resolution of 1080p HD.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sadly – unlike HTC's M9 – there's no option to record in Ultra HD 4K quality. However you do get the option to film in Slow Motion and Hyper Lapse modes, add a bit of drama to your home movies.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One of the best features of the One A9 is that it comes pre-loaded with Android 6.0 Marshmallow.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
HTC worked closely alongside Google for the HTC One A9, to ensure the open-source operating system was fast, fluid and easy to navigate.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There’s also a handy fingerprint scanner, support for Hi-Res Audio playback and expandable memory.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Battery life is solid.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You'll easily be able to power through the entire day with HTC's new smartphone, thanks to Android Marshmallow's clever new Doze Mode shutting down any unused apps, it's possible to squeeze a few days life out of one charge.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Without a doubt, there is a lot to like about the HTC One A9. It's a very good little smartphone – but there is a problem.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
HTC admits the One A9 is not designed to replace its One M9 flagship smartphone, that’s why the Taiwanese firm hasn’t included top-end specs.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And that's why when we started to get frustrated with the One A9.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
From a number of high street retailers, the One A9 costs as much as £469 SIM-free, which is £10 more than Apple’s iPhone 6.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To make matters worse, our friends across the pond initially got the A9 with better specs at a price of just $399 (some £240 converted). US Price is now $499, or £300.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The US deal makes the A9 a brilliant bargain and must-have smartphone for people who can’t afford flagship prices.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sadly, HTC fans in the UK are faced with a phone that’s overpriced for what's packed inside.</div>
