HTC One Max now official with fingerprint scanner, large display After months of leaks, HTC has finally officially unveiled the HTC One Max.
The device boasts a 5.9-inch 1080p LCD display and HTC has kept the same aluminum look and feel of the smaller One smartphone.

Under the hood is an older 1.7GHz Snapdragon 600, 2GB RAM, 32GB internal storage (with a microSD slot for expansion) along with free 50GB Google Drive storage and a 3300mAh battery. The device also includes the UltraPixel camera from the One.

Making the device different is a fingerprint scanner on the back, which will allow you to log in using your own touch. So far, reviews have panned the scanner, claiming it does not work on par with Apple's Touch ID scanner.



The device runs on Android 4.3 with HTC's own Sense 5.5 user interface.

HTC says the device will see global availability starting this month.
