HTC One (M8) review: One and only

25 March 2014
To say there are great expectations of the freshly announced HTC One (M8) would be a massive understatement. This is, after all, one the of flagships to shape the entire season. But a predecessor that failed to turn warm reception into good sales...

8 or 10 megapixel camera with ultrapixels and OIS instead of that duo camera gimmick nonsense would have made me buy the new HTC One for sure. Now I'll go for the Z2...

        NOOOOO! It's too rounded. What the hell, HTC?! The One was good. Disappointed. Was going to get M8. But this.. Oh, well. I'll stick to my current phone.

              Just placed two orders for HTC M8 and Dot View case at http://www.verizonwireless.com . Seems like verizon is getting about 500 online orders per day, including accessories. Wonder how many of these are for M8!

                Very promising phone from HTC...
                Should be selling good. Good job HTC made it available immediately, be it in selected markets... But the rest will follow soon.

                    For god sake technically speaking it isnt a 4 megapixel camera.. the ultrapixel sensor is roughly thrice the size of a normal megapixel they are two different categories

                            good smartphone indeed, must read for the specs, user experience really counts for having a smartphone, that's why i really appreciates LG G2,

                              AnonD-234697, 27 Mar 2014Well guys...my personal review after two days of usage........ moreYeah the battery life is exceptional. I've been on it excessively all day and I just hit 25% remaining. The camera is good enough,especially in low light situations. Job well done HTC

                                I'm loving the HTC one m8, and considering the fact that no one is perfect, lets admire the things we get

                                  HTC M8 - the first phone with a higher resolution front facing camera than back.

                                  ... it's not something to be proud of. Shitty cameras started the fall of blackberry and it will be the same for HTC.

                                    I have the One from almost a year now, nadl trust me when i say this, the MP DOES count, when you have only 4. I love the phone in every other aspect, but at the end of the day the truth is the camere IS crappy.
                                    S5 was a disapointment four me, as well, and anyway i don't miss the samsung lag, so i''ll wait to see some more opinions on the z2. And if this do not deliver either, i might as well consider switching to iphone, even if it's against my preferences. I just want a phone that's not laggy, can make decent pictures, and have a file system. Unfortunatelly, nothing in the market meets this requirements, as far as i know, so i'll have ti chiose 2 or 3. I won't keep the htc for the pictures, if s5 has the ssame lag as the S4, and so does sony, i'll have to pray for a bigger screen for the new iphone.
