Apart from its ability to browse websites normally \u2013 as though it were a laptop \u2013 it functions neatly as a portable Wi-Fi hotspot so I can use my laptop\/tablet without having to have a separate contract. It\u2019s just the right size, neither too big or too small.<\/p>\n<p>It takes great photos and videos as and when I need them, and the sound from the speakers when I am watching an online video or news report is second to none. It\u2019s amazing how much power comes out of those speakers, and this was something that all the reviews have picked up on.<\/p>\n<p>When I first bought it, I had planned on disabling Blinkfeed \u2013 the home screen which updates with latest news from various feeds you can customise to suit your reading habits. But when I realised just how much you could customise it I wouldn\u2019t be without it now.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s made out of aluminium, so it is reassuringly heavy, and it is sleek \u2013 putting the chunky iPhone to shame. I recently bought a handmade leather case for it which ramps up its sexiness no end.<\/p>\n<p>At least one of my pupils has gone out and bought one after seeing mine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The HTC One has been voted best smartphone at the Global Mobile Awards 2014.
