There is very little similarity between the Nexus 6 and the HTC One M9 , but when it comes to looks, these two devices are some of the very best offered in the market. Here is how the huge phablet from Google compares with the One M9 .

Design

When comparing these two devices, it is clear that the One M9 has all the good looks of the flagship One M9. It comes with a similar metal unibody and has a sleek look.  In addition, it has a fingerprint scanner incorporated into its home button, which lies just below the display. As for colors, there are three options, silver, gold and grey while the Nexus 6 only comes in blue and white. The only premium element on the Nexus 6 is its metal band running along its edge, otherwise, the device is made of plastic. It has a smooth back panel with a dimple containing the Motorola emblem, as the company manufactured the device for Google.
