I miss the HTC glory days. My One M7 is still my favorite phone I've ever had. If they made a new phone in that form factor, with the BIG forward facing speakers, no stupid notch, and the inclusion of a headphone jack with modern hardware, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.,(reply>), I used the M8 until it lost support and all my apps stopped working. I bought the phone 3 times.,(reply>), @Tim Sheehan I read it more as speakers on phones in general. Your own comment was just that. Seperate speakers or headphones are better yes, but that was not my point. They have their uses is what I'm saying.,(reply>), @Root This comment thread is specifically about BIG front facing speakers like one the HTC One M7. As you say the current small front facing speakers make good enough sound for non-musical uses while taking up &lt;1mm at the top of the phone, for music no phone speaker will compare to a decent bluetooth speaker or headphones.,(reply>), @Tim Sheehan Anyone who wants to briefly listen to something without grabbing their headphones. Also, front-facing speakers don't have to take up a lot of space these days.,(reply>), @Caleb I know, and they've been my favorite phones on the market for years because of it. But the speakers are still not as good as that old HTC's.
