Under the hood is a Snapdragon 810 chipset pairing four Cortex-A53 cores with four Cortex-A57 cores, backed by an Adreno 430 GPU and 3GB of RAM. That's enough for everyday multitasking, though 32GB of storage is on the tighter side; a microSD slot lets you add up to 200GB if you need more room. The 5-inch Super LCD3 screen runs at full HD, 1080 x 1920 pixels at 441 ppi, sharp enough for text and video without straining the battery too much.

The HTC One M9 price in Malaysia starts from RM1999. Photography leans on a 20MP rear camera with autofocus and dual-tone LED flash, capable of 4K video at 30fps, while the front 4MP camera handles HDR selfies and 1080p clips. Powering it all is a 2840 mAh battery, modest by today's standards but reasonable for a 157g phone measuring just 9.6mm thick.

Connectivity covers NFC, infrared, dual-band Wi-Fi, and LTE Cat6 speeds, so it's not lacking on the networking side. It ships with Android 5.0, later updated to 5.1, with Marshmallow planned as the last major upgrade.
