        So there's hope we'll see the HDR microphone back again in HTC M8?;)

          Thanks Nokia for the agreement. Long Live HTC. I am a htc explorer user. I love this android smartphone.

Pureview is very small pixels and high megapixel count, which enables pixel binning through oversampling and lossless cropping.

                Under Microsoft ownership they've turned Nokia into a patent troll. No more buying Nokia for me.

                  [deleted post]"Loosers" in what sense? Would love to know... In today's mobile market - you just need one 'right' flagship device to turn the table (what SIII did for Sammy).

                    And the "ultra pixel" camera was a direct copy of Nokia's "pureview" technology. I think nokia was patented this naming segment. And that technology was inspired by them? So HTC should also stop making this none sense "utratrash" technology!

                          MdN8, 07 Feb 2014HTC has LTE patents which NSN probably needs.Good man. You get it. Nokia needed access to HTC'S patents, more than HTC, to nokia's patents. And lets not forget who controls or at least is in bed with Nokia. ( MS!! )

You will also do what Apple and Nokia did. cous if you the only company that has that something, you have the market for that. That any other company don't have. So if you let other company use what you have, you will lose your costumer. You wont let your company go down, right? Think it!
