HTC One M9 thoughts

The HTC One began its journey as the M7 a promising flagship let down by its camera. The following year the M8 was released which looked even more beautiful but history stayed unchanged, its camera was yet another let down.
So all behold the M9, HTC's 2015 flagship device.
The M9 now features a bigger battery, faster processor, new 20 megapixel camera and a relatively unchanged design.
The phone has seen mixed impressions with some people playing spot the difference between the M8 and M9 devices. However as MKBHD brought up in his own impressions video, HTC took an already successful design and tweaked it for the better. The industrial design is now more particular and precise as the manufacturing process has been extended dramatically rather than reduced. The uni-body design incorporates a two tone metal finish where it is anodized twice. The edges are sharper and the design is now simpler and cleaner, it really looks good.
The HTC One M9 shouldn't be looked as a completely new device rather an incremental upgrade on an already great design.
However will HTC's effort be enough to keep it up to pace with the current rate technology changes?
