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

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
Abstract: We like the HTC One (M8) a lot during our review of this device, and though we generally like its Dot View case too, its flip case design and limited features leaves much to be desired. HTC knows this and has just issued an update to its Dot View app.The...
The HTC One M8 is truly a work of art, it feels great to the touch and even greater when in use. I love the build, love the camera, the audio and just about everything about it ……… except for the price, of which I honestly do think that the SRP of RM 2,...
Premium build quality materials, Superb system performance, Great touch screen response, Awesome HTC Sense user experience, Front facing camera takes good quality pictures, HTC BoomSound is undefeatable, Duo camera is useful rather than a gimmick, Superb
Ultrapixel camera takes the same low 4MP resolution, Motion launch can be quite annoying, Lack of HTC stock widgets
The HTC One M8 is the best ever Android smartphone that we've ever reviwed this year, HTC has crafted a masterpiece that is simply hard to resist, combined with beauty and performance, the One M8 is once again a legend that tends to make its competitors j...
Duo Camera added some great photo editing capabilities (before or after shooting), Battery life is out of this world, lasting close to 2 full days, More metal and still an amazing build quality and design
5″ screen can be a bit too big for some, and the taller phone is not my favourite, Motion Launch got annoying for me after awhile, as I'm not a fan of gesture based actions to wake up screen, Low Light photography can be improved some more, especially wit
Having been a major fan of the flagship HTC One last year, I had high hopes for the new iteration of the HTC One M8 this year. Sad to say, I was a little disappointed.Don't get me wrong – this is an amazing phone. If you skipped on getting the HTC One las...

HTC One (M8) is one of the best smartphone you can buy in 2014. It has good phone build, great Full HD display, long battery life and good cameras. The BoomSound speakers are the best smartphone speakers. Great phone for your on-the-go movie watching.How...

Honestly speaking, even though we're still quite early in 2014, the HTC One (M8) is easily one of the top dogs in the smartphone category this year. HTC have just done a lot of things right and though we have a few niggles here and there, it still doesn'...
