Abstract: Point-and-shoot cameras teeter on the edge of extinction, rendered obsolete by our smartphones. But shooting with iPhones or juggling our Android handsets aren't always the best or most comfortable; just the most convenient. What's the solution? HTC think...
The HTC Re is a device I want to like. I want to laud innovation, and this little camera is certainly that. But can HTC start a new product category? It's too expensive - I get that it needs to be to reach the premium performance level, but it's not even...

Great ergonomics, Fuss-free operation, IP57 certified
Video recording quality isn't good, Too expensive, Lack of OIS
We laude HTC's efforts to innovate and create a fun, unique device that could evolve into a niche of its own. The industrial design of the RE is a perfect blend of good looks and supreme ergonomics. However, there are a few of flaws that HTC needs to addr...
Imagine a phone with a detachable camera that will let you mount the lens on a helmet, with the phone safe in your backpack or, better yet, at home. Imagine a regular phone with a water-proof camera. For all we care, someone at HTC may have been imagining...
