The HTC Re is a small
Simple point-and-shoot video camera that's ready to shoot when you pick it up. It's waterproof to 1 meter without a housing
And its built-in wireless and the Re app let you see what you're shooting as well as view and download what
Funky but thoughtful design
Wide-angle lens
Instantly ready to use
Shoots decent photos
The editors didn't like
Too expensive
Doesn't yield great snaps
Image and video quality not good enough
Some connection and app issues
No screen display
No lens or mechanical stabilisation
Only captures video in Full HD with 30 fps
Images lack sharpness

There is noticeable shutter lag. Its video and photo quality aren't significantly better than a smartphone and audio quality is poor. Its battery isn't user replaceable or removable. Its shape is great for holding

Abstract: The RE Camera fits easily in your hand and only has two buttons Photos: Jonathan H LiuDespite the fact that I've finally got a smartphone, I still usually use a standalone digital camera, a Sony Cyber-shot It's not a really high-end camera, but it has an...
Abstract: The RE Camera from HTC shoots HD video, is waterproof and has a 110-minute battery. While versatile, the life camera does not come with a built-in strap, so you have to purchase a holder separately. With 1080p recording at 30 frames per second or 720p rec...
HTC has the right idea with the Re. They see the need for a small and affordable action camera and they are trying to fill the void. Although the Re cam was way overpriced (to me at least) when it came out, at the current prices now, it's not such a b...

Abstract: High-end smartphones sure can snap a pretty picture these days. This fact alone means it won't be easy for HTC to win over mobile photographers with its pocket-size RE camera. Billed as an easy-to-grip device that shoots photos and video with a new level ...
Again I wasn't expecting it to be blown away by the Re but throughout my time w/ it, it did change my mind. I did manage to get some pretty good photos + videos on it. But like many 1st-gen devices, there are missteps and there are bugs. Its not beatin...
The HTC Re camera is extremely cute and friendly. Its design is “human” and that makes it very agreeable to hold and to use in your hand – which is not the case with pretty much all other “action cams”. After spending some time with it, I wouldn't even co...
Abstract: Although smartphone cameras have pretty much taken the place of separate digital cameras (at least, for casual photographers), tech companies are still trying to come up with interesting ways for consumers to use photography. One method that is popping up...
No 60-fps vide, Slow shutter causes blurry photo, Expensive for features
A curious combination of a smartphone camera and a GoPro, the HTC RE takes pictures and movies without interfering with the moment. Is it a periscope? A glue stick? Some kind of sci-fi asthma inhaler? Nope. It's HTC's mild-mannered lifestyle ca...
For HTC's first big foray out of their touchscreen-driven comfort zone, the HTC Re is a decent effort. It's quirky, looks fun, and is honestly kind of fun to use. It's comfortable to hold, easy to control, and the companion apps significantly boost its ca...
