When it comes to smartphones, every single company would do well to have a flagship that they can call their own. After all, it makes perfect sense, as you would also need to compete on the top end of the market in order to win the perception war among the masses. HTC might have started off with a bang all those years ago, but they have fallen onto difficult times recently, where even the HTC One, despite its strengths, has not managed to alter the perception of the masses to avoid HTC smartphones. Perhaps with the release of the HTC One M8, things might change for the better?

The HTC One M8 is said to come with a high quality metal unibody alongside a Smart Sensor Hub which is capable of anticipating your needs, and it will make use of Motion Launch controls in order to make everyday tasks easier. Apart from that, there is also the brand new Duo Camera technology that delivers creative, professional-looking photos and amazing effects, while HTC BoomSound would yet again set new standards for audio quality on a smartphone.

With its beautiful, durable, high quality metal unibody encasing a 5-inch Full HD (1080p) display, you can be sure that your eyes will be spoilt be what it offers. Underneath the hood, you will find a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor with 2.3 GHz quad-core Krait CPU, not to mention fully integrated 4G LTE connectivity and Android 4.4 KitKat as the mobile operating system of choice. It will also feature the all-new HTC Sense 6, which is available on the device and as an upgrade from the Google Play store.

The Duo Camera will boast of HTC’s innovative HTC UltraPixel module, in addition to a dual flash and full 1080p HD video recording, allowing it to produce incredible images regardless of most lighting conditions, while there is also a 5-MP wide-angle front facing camera that captures superior selfies without much hassle. Looks like, in HTC’s own words, “the best just got better.” Do you agree with that?

Press Release

Taiwanese smartphone company HTC looks all set to roll out their upcoming flagship smartphone in a fortnight’s time thereabouts, where it is known as the All New HTC One, or the HTC M8 as its code name. However, there might be precious little that the public will not know about the All New HTC One when it arrives this coming March 25th, considering the amount of leaks and rumors that have made their way to news wires and online channels? Serial leakster @evleaks has posted an image of a new and upcoming flip cover for the All New HTC One that you can see above, where it sports a variety of colors with the ability to depict the time as well as weather even when the flip cover’s lid is closed.

With both Samsung and Sony having unveiled their 2014 flagships, all eyes are now on HTC to take the wraps off of what’s supposedly going to be called the All New HTC One. The company has an event scheduled on March 25th in New York and London where it will finally show us the HTC One’s successor. HTC itself has been involved in building a lot of hype for its next flagship, even taking a swing at Samsung for this very purpose. The latest bit about this device comes from an unofficial source, with the new flagship being spotted in all its glory.

A lot of already been said and speculated about the HTC M8. HTC’s next generation flagship smartphone, apparently codenamed M8, is expected to be launched within the following weeks. We have already seen several leaked photos of the purported device and even multiple press renders. Today another HTC M8 press render has surfaced online, and it also shows off a case that may be offered alongside the flagship once it finally launches.

The HTC One was one of the best smartphones of 2013, according to just about anyone you could ask – the flagship Android device from the Taiwanese company bucked the trend of its major competitors using Google’s mobile OS by incorporating a sleek metal case into its device design. On March 25, we’ll see how HTC follows that act with its next flagship handset, according to new invites received by press (via Engadget).

The launch event will happen in New York and London, and it’s very likely that what we’ll see is the device that’s been making the rumor rounds with the codename “M8.” The M8 has enjoyed a large number of leaks so far, including an apparent photo that shows industrial design very much in keeping with the current look of the HTC One. That’s potentially a very good thing: The microperforated speaker grills and flat metal look of the HTC One are iconic, and insiders laud the ergonomics and quality of the device’s construction. However, other attempts to copy but modify that look (i.e. the HTC One Max phablet) have not been nearly as well received.

The M8 is said to stick pretty close to the original, however, and will hopefully avoid any cheapening effects. It’s going to be a little bit bigger with a ‘minimum’ 5-inch display, 1080p output, and a more powerful Snapdragon 800 processor than the one currently used. It’ll supposedly ship with Android KitKat 4.4 on board, and have a twin-sensor camera as its primary differentiating factor: Said camera would allow for refocusing of focal depth after a picture is taken, and improve other editing features including the deletion of certain objects form a photo entirely.

Originally, many thought we’d get a peek at the HTC One successor at MWC this month in Barcelona, but now it seems that won’t be the case. Still, not long to wait before we see what HTC has in store for its big bet for 2014.
