#Shockpropd metal case htc one m9 review series
The hallmark of the M series - the front-facing "BoomSound" stereo speakers - have been refined just a tad as well. (You're still able to double-tap the display to wake the phone - though it still has to sense some movement first, and in any case that option isn't turned on by default.) You'll no longer have to adjust your grip on the phone to reach the power key. Maybe not a deal-breaker, but noticeable.Īnother subtle but important change is the power button having moved from the top of the phone to the right-hand side, below the (now separated) volume buttons. Silver and gold - which is what we've used - feels a little sharper than the gunmetal. The shelf feels just a tad different depending the color scheme you get. It's a sort of subtle but also very important difference.

Add to that the new "shelf" that's been milled into the edges of the phone plus a more matte finish on the metal and the M9 addresses one of our chief complaints of the M8 - that it was too hard to hold. A few millimeters have been shaved off the height and thickness, with just a smidge removed from the width. The most noticeable change is that the phone has actually shrunk just a tad. The short take is that you've got a milled aluminum body - a metal phone - with gorgeous curves and continued attention to detail that few do as well as HTC. The M9's physical attributes aren't a departure from the previous model. I highly recommend this case if you have an HTC M9 and plan to use it outside in the elements.The M9's design is a nice refinement of the M8. It is lightweight, hardly adds any bulk to the M9 package, and looks great. I am very impressed with the design of the case and pleased with the purchase. There is even a clear opening for the IR port so you can control your TV while using the case. You will find HTC used anti-reflective material for both the front and rear cameras so that camera performance was not impacted when using the case. It's a glossy plastic protector and I didn't notice any real impact on touch sensitivity or performance.

Screen protection is integrated into the case. I also really like that the edges have soft rubber to improve your grip on the HTC One M9. The side power and volume buttons were easy to manipulate with the rubber covers. My headphones fit into the jack without needing an extension. The one challenge I did have was finding a microUSB cable that fit into the bottom opening. There are rubber gaskets and doors on the bottom for the microUSB port and headset jack. There is an O-ring embedded in the front piece with other waterproof membranes and seal pieces around the speakers, cameras, microphones, and physical buttons. You simply rest the HTC One M9 in the back piece and then snap the front piece securely around all of the edges. I highly recommend you use this in the case and then submerge it to verify that you are using the case correctly. HTC includes a waterproof test paper with edges that will change color if any water leaks in.

It was so easy that I didn't trust the waterproof integrity.

It's a simple two piece case solution and I have to say it was much easier to install the M9 than in most all of the other waterproof cases I have tested in the past. The case comes with yellow highlighted trim with dark gray plastic on the remaining portions. The screen protector is integrated into the front as well.

It has a MIL-STD 810F-516 shock proof rating to survive 2-meter drops too. You get an IPx8 waterproof rating and IP6X dust-proof protection with the case.
