HTC is getting its money’s worth out of patent and trademark agreement with Apple, new One comes with iPhone 5-like accents

Apple and HTC reached a global settlement last fall, regarding multiple patent infringement lawsuits, and agreed to a 10-year licensing deal with a dismissal of all lawsuits, and now it seems HTC is getting its money’s worth with the new One sporting obvious iPhone 5-like accents.

The HTC One notably features an entirely aluminum construction, and the company’s design head, Scott Cryle, consistently compared its “solid” feel to the unnamed competition when unveiling the handset on Tuesday.
