AnonD-234697, 08 Jun 2014No it doenst ...though ur statement is true with samsung ph... moreThat's because both s3 and note 2 use a cortex a9 based processors and that particular chip has a tendency of slowing down or wearing out over almost an year. But believe me, these latest processors( cortex a15 or krait based) don't age up at least 3-4 years.
You won't notice slowing down on m8.

AnonD-28999, 07 Jun 2014Hey guys if u want to play games with zero lag. In the deve... morePlease don't enable the high performance mode for regular processes. It can cause serious damage to the processor and degrade battery life permanently. It's just for doing very high performance applications for a very short period of time.
This mode forces the CPU to run at full clock and doesnt enable it to clock down which is necessary for the SoC to function properly in the long run.
The m8 already has a very capable processor. Please don't harass the processor by doing these things.
Have a nice day

Software & UI:
Sense 6 is an ok upgrade for the earlier Sense.
Icons became more flatter "trend for all vendors now"
It's easily customizable, snappy fast ... and isn't RAM hungry as my previous Note 3.
Blinkfeed became my primary news source... I update it through WiFi in the morning... and read the news offline throughout the day "using offline reading feature".
Sense 6 added the ability to change system fonts... but actually I prefer the default font.
The phone gets a bit warm upon using intensive apps and 3D games for a long time.
I love Wallpapers of the homescreen... nicely done.
There are some features like "raising phone to ear to auto answer calls"... it's a fancy feature that I use always.
Sound quality:
The front facing speakers are the finest quality speakers I experienced on any smartphone.
Guess what... they are even better without the beats audio integration... noticably louder than the One M7 and the Note 3.
It's not only about louder sounds ... but the quality is really superior.
Battery Life:
Battery life is very important for me.... I work in a 12-hours shifts schedule... with no nearby power outlets.
I'm always 3G connected to update my e-mail, check facebook & twitter, whatsapp texting etc.
When I was using the One M7 I had to rationalize my usage... turn off mobile data sometimes... lower brightness.
But using the new One M8 ... I don't even think about turning of my 3G data.... thanks to the new Snapdragon 801 SoC.
Watching a 2 hour movie, drains only 24% of the battery which is excellent.
Even when the battery reaches the red zone... I activate the extreme power saving mode... till I get home.
On that mode... 10% of juice is sufficient to keep the M8 alive for 1 day.
Camera:
I'm not a professional photographer,
I love the HDR shots I took using the M8.
The front facing shooter is perfect.... It's a selfie machine!.... It's the highest quality front facing camera I've ever experienced.
(Comarping to Samsung S3, Note 3, HTC One M7 and iPhone 4s)
I was amazed by the low light shooting capabilities .... the device doesn't even need the flash to fire in low light.... and the results are always good!
Panorama shots are fascinating and easy to shoot.
Minimum focusing distance for marco shots isn't so good.
Portraits are very good... portraits I shoot resemble shots from professional cameras.
U Focus "bokeh effect" results are sometimes fascinating and sometimes unnatural.
My previous smartphones:
HTC Sensation XL, Samsung Galaxy S3, iPhone 4S, HTC One M7, Samsung Galaxy Note 3.

Just got this phone after having a hard time trying to decide whether I should get the iPhone 5s or m8 and I got to say that I'm very very satisfied with my phone :D
I don't know why people keep complaining about the camera !! Its improved and it takes decent photos ! But people like some blind fan boys keep just saying stuff because they compare phones according to the specs sheet !
I'm using this device and I can guarantee you that you'll be happy with it :D

AnonD-258697, 06 Jun 2014well thanks a lot for your reply, that was helpful, but I l... moreMy pleasure Arean, What did you mean by “Android wz.” I hope you intended whether this phone is lagging or not. Do not worry about it; this phone utterly lag free. I have been using this phone for one month. So far, I have never faced any single of lagging. You mentioned that Note 3 was dissatisfied you. But don’t worry with the HTC M8, this phone is very smooth as ios. You can do your day to day tasks with blinking speed owing to HTC Sense. The HTC Sense 6 is excessively smooth as well as very user-friendly.
Any further questions, don't hesitate to ask. I'm here to help.

I think you have a faulty unit as 3 and half hour on-screen time is ridiculous. Even nexus 5 get's 3.5 hour on-screen time.
Rest I completely agree with you. I just feel that last year's HTC one was better looking as it didn't waste sace for HTC logo on the bottom of screen. However, this is a personal preference and looks are subjective anyways.

Owning a HTC One M7, I used to wonder, how could any upcoming handset be better looking than this beauty. Then came the HTC One M8 with a phenomenally beautiful design. Upgrading from 70% metal on HTC One M7 to 90% metal phone M8 feels like a big move. Contrary to what people say, M8 doesn’t at all look like last year’s model.
Though the phone is 5” big, its so easy to hold and use. The phone looks and feels very sleek in hands. Its something that I would never want to keep it down. My M8 is Gunmetal Grey with hairline brush finish. Metal of the M8 covers all the way to the front edges making the phone look total stunner. Build quality of the phone is outstanding. HTC One M8 has an IPX3 rating which means that M8 can survive accidental spills of water giving a peace of mind.
The display of HTC One M8 is simply stunning. M8 is powered by Qualcomm S801 SOC clocked at 2.5 Ghz and comes with 2 GB Ram resulting into very fast performance. M8 comes microSD card slot that supports up to 128GB cards.
M8 comes with Duo camera setup on the back. The main sensor is 4 Ultra Pixel whereas secondary camera sensor is the depth sensor that calculates the depth while shooting images. M8 has 5mp FFC making it just perfect for clicking Selfies and Wefies. The first thing that someone would notice and works best is the fast focus on M8. It just focuses on objects real fast. One important addition to the camera is the dual tone LED flash, that detects the lighting and automatically selects the right tone and intensity to fire the LED flash to match the lighting. The Ultra Pixel camera on M8 enables to click mind blowing images including the low light conditions. The Camera UI has got complete transformation. With the traditional Camera and Video clicking options, there are additional options to click Selfie, Dual capture using both front and rear camera. HTC has also included manual mode for those willing to utilize personal setting for clicking images. The Zoe mode can do click single image, multiple images (i.e. Sequence shots) with Video and videos. Depth sensor records the depth of various objects in the image and helps to edit/customize the image using various in-built options like U-Focus i.e. selective focus and Foregrounder. There are lots of other options to play with like Seasons, 3D Dimensions Plus, Copy and Paste, stickers and touch-up.
2600 mah battery on M8 is ridiculously awesome. It just refuses to die. Phone easily lasts full day with moderate usage and around 3 ½ hours of screen time. Also with Extreme Power Saver mode enabled, M8 can last around 15 hours with 5% battery.
HTC improved the Boom Sound experience on M8. The sound on M8 much more richer and punchier. It total fun to listen to music or watch videos on M8.
Sense 6 or Sixth sense as HTC likes to call it brings lots many visual changes on M8. Themes make a come back. Main apps are also colour coded on based on categories such as productivity, games etc. The dialer has option like Standard or Large dial pad. The phone is totally lag free. Even on running multiple applications there is no lag whatsoever on M8. BlinkFeed has also been tweaked in Sense 6. There’s an option to search for content as well apart from checking all the news, feeds and social network updates. Motion Gestures on M8 performs as desired. My favorite features are double tap to wake up and activating camera by holding phone horizontally and clicking the volume button. Also, there are many more handy options that one gets with motion gestures. The HTC One (M8) comes with Fitbit app preloaded that’ll continuously monitor your daily activities such as footsteps taken and distance traveled.
Also, 1 of the best feature of HTC One is also available on M8 i.e. Sense TV. With built-in infrared remote we can control our TV and set-top box. I don't have to hunt for my TV remote anymore when I want to watch television.
Overall, HTC One M8 is the best phone of 2014. A must have gadget.
