Bought mine on Thursday. It is:

HT36DW

HT - Hsinchu, Taiwan

Date of manufacture: 06/13/2013

Age: 2 months

I examined it at the store before I bought it, and no issues really jumped out at me. Upon closer examination at home, the top of the screen is raised over the speaker grille by just a hair, while the other side is flush. The only way I could tell is by running my fingers over it. Upon conducting a similar examination of the other two Androids I own (a SK4G and a Droid 3) neither of them are exactly flush either, so I didn't worry about it.

Shanghai, 2013, May 14th

No serious built issues. No gaps, one little scratch in the aluminium.

Camera works great, no tint or pattern.

Speaker popping sound at the end when playing a sound - yes. But the speakers are working really great!

So I'm satisfied :)

[One (M7) General] hamdir:
the pop is not a defect, it's random and most likely will disappear later, just dont hammer them at full volume all the time
[One (M7) General] .vermilion:
Hmm... The pop occurs after every sound, not randomly. I got my One over a month now, when will it disappear?

[One (M7) General] The Apostle:
It's actually my second "One"... First one I had for 9 days and no matter what I did I could not get any device to connect to its hot spot. They switched it out for a brand new one in the box and even let me keep both chargers. I will say that the screen is slightly different. Wish I would have seen this thread and the others before. I feel the screens are definitely different on the two devices and that's why I started to search. I think the first one had a more vibrant screen. I also noticed on the first one that when the screen was off, the digitizer was clearly visible at any angle... Even looking at it straight on. It looked like blinds in an house. On the new one I have to angle it in the light just perfect to see it.

Mine is SH, 24th of April, 2013, bought from Phones4u, UK.

So I've got two in front of me:

HT34Y -

Very good cosmetically, but power button is basically flush with the body, and the mic is defective/muffled. S is OFF on this device.

HT35J

Very good cosmetically, though perhaps not quite as perfect as the one above, but power button is elevated and even, mic works perfectly. If anyone wants to tell me how, I can check if it's still carrying the HDR mic. I will probably be going S-OFF on this device soon and hoping that doesn't ruin my mic.

I have FA35PW. Got this from T-Mobile US as a refurb. I don't see any build quality defects, and I've tested the camera and see no purple tint issues even when it gets warm (camera sensor info is 2013-05-21). I got it on 2/14/2014, it had the 4.1.2 build, it immediately went through 2 OTA updates eventually staying on the 4.3.1 build. Then on the 21st, T-Mobile released the 4.4.2 update OTA and that installed. Nice to have a fully updated/current phone!
[One (M7) General] sweetdreamz338:

[One (M7) General] limcc:
Mine was FA35W but after come back from RMA, both serial number and IMEI had changed. The repair sheet stated Motherboard and battery changed, as well as some other things.

IMEI and serial number are related to motherboard, not the frame, that's why it's changed

the infamous dual mic

Hi!!!

I've registered in this forum because I'm going crazy with all this dual mic stuff.

All of this time, anyone notice that the devices with the more recent made date have a not ""good"" mic that can record in loud sound conditions?? After read a lot of info/threads about it, I can not confirm that only the early batches have the ""good" mic.

My theory is that htc delete the info from the specs but they are still using a mic who can record videos with excellent audio. (This only works with the official rom and the camera app).

I'd really appreciate some info from the owners of recent devices because I want a phone with this feature and I don't want an iphone (ios) or a nokia (WP), and the M8 is too expensive for me :(

Many thanks in advance guys!.

I would. But only because my first one was like that. Where the screen was raised, the glass actually started to splinter and tiny parts (hardly noticeable but I knew they were there) started to fall (or "chip") away by themselves.

Not to say that the same will happen to you, but might be best, just to be on the safe side.

pretty new batch 28th of march
[One (M7) General] horsetastic:
Just had mine delivered to my house so when I get back from work later on I'll check it for defects then check the serial....It's from 3_UK so will see what/where it's come from and when it was made.
[One (M7) General] buddy03:
My serial number is FA33XW, purchased from Handtec in UK.

Still unsure if I should unbox it or not as apparently EU stock has problem with the HSPA/WCDMA 850Mhz network which is commonly used in Australia.
