HTC One M8 Smartphone Review
The HTC One was the best handset of 2013
As awarded at MWC 2014. It's also won numerous awards for having the best design so it only makes sense that HTC made the best even better! I've had this for a week now
And being a g

So here’s what you need to know
The HTC One (M8) is the most beautiful Android phone ever made. No question. In fact
We’d go so far as to say that only Apple’s iPhone 5 and 5s are better looking - and they’re much smaller. The new one is wrapped in metal from screen edge to screen edge
And the slick brushed metal reminds us of Apple’s older iPod touch models
Only much more streamlined. Even t

Sleek metallic good looks
Fine HD screen
Powerful processor
The brightest
Sharpest screen you've ever seen
Lightspeed processing
Extra features like Blinkfeed and the second camera sensor are a revelation
The editors didn't like
Still a 4-megapixel camera with limitations
Large size won't suit all users
Ufocus bokeh effect is hit and miss
2GB RAM is a bit of a disappointment
Might be a bit large and unwieldy for some
Expensive (but then again all premium phones are!)
It's so similar to last year's One M8 that it's already old news. The camera is unable to balance exposure and it has inconsistent white balance
Screen suffers in sunlight and viewing angles are not the best
Camera is good but not best in class
Photos lack fine detail
Music could time better
Let’s talk problems with the HTC One (M8) - but let’s also make clear that we’re nitpicking. The main one we have is with the navigation buttons - last year’s HTC One sported two below the screen
Worked into the bezel
But this year’s model works in the more standard Home
Back and Multi-tasking onto the display itself. It’s easier to use
But here’s the thing - the bottom bezel remains just as
Camera poor in bright light
It's even bigger than last year's model
So small hands may feel the burn
Pictures lack detail
Body could have been shorter
Slippery in cold hands
Not everyone will like Sense 6
Resolution of rear snapper is lower than other phones
Dot View case is frustrating
Slippery when held with cold hands. Sense 6 isnt for everyone but a Google Play Edition M8 is also on the way. Rear camera resolution lower than most
Adds bulk
Not waterproof
No water resistance
Slippery grip could lead to dropping
Camera still can't match iPhone 5S
Only 16GB of internal storage
Uncomfortable power button placement
$650 price is double the Nexus 5
No fingerprint sensor/IP67 certification
Blinkfeed can be annoying
Average camera
Lacks wireless charging
On
Screen buttons can get in the way
Exposure and chroma noise issues in photos
Duo camera doesn't work perfectly
Camera doesn't match quality of rivals
HTC's dedication to UltraPixel means no 4K video recording
68GB of unremovable system software is unusually steep

Beautiful industrial design, Incredibly loud speakers, Powerful internals which translate to stellar performance, Sense 6 is cohesive with a rich UX, As premium as modern day smartphones come
The camera performance is comparatively sub-par, May be too large or hefty for some, Battery life is hit or miss,
So is the One M8 a worthy successor to the M7? Some say it's not as bold or as breathtaking as the original. That's likely not due to the M8 itself, but the awe we were in due to the dramatic change brought forth by the M7, compared to earlier HTC mode...
Gorgeous build. Top-notch front-facing camera. Cool depth-of-field tricks on main camera. Very loud speakerphone.
Main camera fails to impress overall. Tons of bloatware
The One (M8) continues HTC's reign as the maker of the best-designed Android smartphones. It oozes with style and sophistication, but makes some compromises compared with the Galaxy S5. Still, it shares the Editors' Choice badge with the Galaxy S5 for be...
"LOVE THE DESIGN AND USE PHOTOS ON THE WEB? THIS IS THE ONE"All in all, I found the HTC One to be an excellent phone all-around. By improving all aspects of the previous handset, HTC has gotten to a point where it got just about everything right (design...
Well, we've been patient for these two particular smartphones, and now that they are both here, the only thing left to do is to make the difficult decision of which one to choose. Quite frankly, both the Samsung Galaxy S5, and the HTC One (M8) are supe...
Traditionally, the older a smartphone gets, the cheaper its price becomes. Therefore, it should be expected for a 6-month product to be lower in price point than let’s say, a new smartphone that was just recently released. Bearing that in mind, we’d be...
HTC has carefully crafted a fine smartphone for 2014. By all means, the One (M8) is a flagship that will be in the same category as the Galaxy S5 and every other top tier device introduced throughout the rest of the year. The premium feel and build lik...

Available across all 4 major U.S. carriers – AT&T, Verizon, Sprint & TMobile, long battery life with smart power saving features, sleek but tough design with nice color choices, Sense 6.0 is beautiful and intuitive, excellent performance, one of the best
It's a bit heavier than we would like it to be, Camera is super fast with lots of neat features but it has photo quality flaws, disappointed with the keyboard, slippery grip
The previous HTC One was a great phone, but it didn't hit a home run for HTC when it came to marketshare. On the other hand, HTC has nearly knocked it out of the park this time with the HTC One M8. So it remains to be seen if just having a great phon...
Abstract: The HTC One M8 has been a subject of numerous news leaks leading to the official announcement. It's definitely a good thing for HTC that the industry is so keen on the new HTC One even before its official launch. But that is hardly a surprise since the HT...
The One M8 is the best Android handset you can buy right now. I think there are plenty of folks out there who might try to say that this phone is iterative because it carries a similar name to last year's model, but that's basically the only iterative jum...
Beautiful, bold design, Premium build quality, Bestinclass audio/multimedia experience, Powerful specs built to last, 128 MicroSD slot opens doors, Amazingly fun to use camera
Camera produces inconsistent image and video results, Minor lag in some native Sense 6 apps, Some new features seem incomplete (Themes, Motion Launch customization, etc…)
In a smartphone world where everyone else is pumping out rectangles, HTC cuts through the clutter with the HTC One M8. They take the road less traveled at almost every turn – front-facing speakers, metal unibody frame, cameras that provide an experience i...
