In what was perhaps the worst-kept secret in the history of media events, the HTC One launched today in London. The HTC One is the new flagship smartphone for the Taiwanese manufacturer. Here we take a look at the HTC One's specs. See HTC One price in UK. See also: HTC One review: a fantastic high-end Android smartphone.

The most notable features of the HTC One are: a new piece of software called Zoe that takes photos and videos and creates highlight movies without you doing anything; a virtually all-metal finish; an all-new UltraPixel camera that HTC claims captures 300 percent more light than its rivals; two big new speakers at the top and bottom of the screen; and a new feature called Blink, which displays content in a tile-like fashion, replacing widgets with content that matters to you; and, finally, a new HTC Sense homescreen.
