HTC One (M8) Drop Test

1st page yes ! Lol , btw thx for making the thread , good luck with it

I wonder if there will be 'Dual Sim' version like the One (M7)?
I am looking for high end dual sim phone and the One fits the bill.

I'm going to get my m8 very soon, hope that the ac version would be sold in Hong Kong, and hope there won't be any differences in software

Judging from past history, there will be a dual SIM version for the China market at the very least.
Also if you notice the SIM tray can be modified to support dual SIM.

I just went into my local Carphone Warehouse to look at the HTC One M8 display that they had.
It has cemented my love for HTC and the One series.
The build quality looked great from what I could see, nice screen, the body felt weighty and premium (although it was hard to hold the device properly - it was smothered with security tagging)
I installed Antutu Benchmarks and started to take a video of it, until a store assistant came over and started a conversation with me... "Can I help you?".
He then proceeded to ask me what handset I had, when he saw it was a One M7 he then told me that the M8 wasn't worth the upgrade (to my dismay, is this his sales technique? Abysmal).
He then told me that the M8 had a 16mp camera, at which point I laughed and said that it didn't - he doggedly tried to reassure me that it did, while I assured him that it didn't.
He did say that one good thing about the handset over my M7 was the fact that it was running Android 4.4.2 KitKat, which my M7 couldn't run, I then showed him my M7 running KitKat - he asked me how and I said I'd rooted it and had installed a Custom ROM, to which his reply was "a what?".
Oh and I also spoke to him about my dislike of the onscreen buttons and the bezel, again to which he replied "what?", so I had to point out to him the difference between my HTC M7 capacitive buttons in the bezel, to the M8 onscreen buttons with added bezel.
He then got what I meant when I told him that it then made the 5" screen 4.7" effective...
I love the staff in the Carphone Warehouse!

I would have just said "Yes, it does" and showed him. Wtf does rooting/custom roms have to do with having 4.4.2??

and you needed to be rooted for 4.4.2 ?????
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
No as the update is being released for the M7, I just happened to be rooted and have 4.4.2 installed long before the update was available for my handset.
Anyway, that's off topic, my point is that this salesman was [email protected] and didn't know anything about the beautiful HTC One M8 that he was selling.

I think you might complain about the poor signal strength and how you can't hold it without pressing the screen.

I can see the unwanted screen presses, but why would that have poor signal strength?

Dual Sim model

Exactly what I am looking for.
I have waited a little while before making my decision on what to buy to see if there will be a new HTC One (M8) version and it looks like there should be.
Would anything beat the HTC One (M8) as a dual sim phone except for maybe a potentially new HTC One Max (M8) dual sim phone.

" I took the liberties of moving our thread from general to the HD forum"
In Denmark the rumors go from HTC them self that it will come in november so all can get it as a early X-mas gift but dont know other countries :S Unforntunaly
The Swedish online store Webhallen has it listed with a release date of 2008-11-19.
http://www.webhallen.com/prod.php?id=91090
A few weeks ago, I pre-ordered my HD from http://www.clove.co.uk/
They are guessing a mid November ship date!
Have anyone heard if this will have multitouch?
Wouldnt make sense if it didnt have it.
Batterytime seams low as well.
Hope they will have some hardware upgrades before release.
If only I can pre order HD!!!!!!
In my country there is no pre order available and I´m sure it´s going to be more than 6 months to a store to have it and very expensive.....
Hope a good friend travel to Europe soon!
Does anybody know whether Sprint US is getting this device?
Thanks.

Don't know bro, but if they are I might just jump ship. I get horrible Hsdpa on att. Iphones tie up the bandwith. Even though Sprints broadband is slower I beleive it is less congested
This is my next phone. I hope this beauty comes out soon... (I'm in the US)
Am I reading the specs right?
Is the 3G support for GSM in USA missing from this phone?
I hope I'm wrong... I would like to get this one on ATT... really don't wanna go back to sprint.
Sprint should get it. They have gotten all the flagship HTCs so far so...

Right There is no 3g Support to the US in with the Euro HD version.
Much Like Same as the Touch pro and DIamond, we will have to wait for the U.S. version.
And like I said on Tito's thread. AT&T would not introduce this iphone killer and jeopardize its exclusivity with Apple. Apple is the most marketable phone in the US. Whatever they touch turns to gold it seems. Anyways, Sprint needs to reinvent itself and they seem to be doing this by acquiring the latest phones. Only problem is that they are notorious for handicapping the **** out of them.
Does anyone know if this will be realsed on Orange UK?
Any new or rumour about navigation software ?
Rgds,
Right now we know its GSM only cause in the picture it shows 3g simple on top right corner...i highly doubt we would even see this in the States...but i can hope...man only if it support America GSM highspeed

is this a fair critisism? There are not many phones/pda's that have good "hd" video qualities, surely the hd is reference to its wide screen and resolution which is better than most other alternatives? i guess some of us will have to buy n try, like i did with my touch cruise

I hav3 my doubts on that though.. 64 gb was for the one x plus.. Not for the one x.. So i have my doubts whether the 64 gb one will be available only for US..:/.. And 64 gb one plus will only be available later this year..
Hope there would be a 64gb for india.. I really do hope..
As prices are considered, indian htc stores have a high pricing marketing which sucks... And trust me there are htc stores in india which dont even know if a one x plus exists..(no kidding..personal experience). whereas sony amd samsung indian stores arent so pricey as compared to their htc counterparts in india
Tapatalkedddd...!!!!!
This looks great... I'll still wait and see what the S4 is like.
Looks fantastic
Storage isnt an issue for me.
The battery life couldve been better.. lets see how it performs in real life.
On paper, this could be the perfect device for me.
HTC didnt price the Butterfly too well. Wonder what this'll cost.
delete
I am getting one as soon as it is launched...should be around 40k...lets hope its cheaper than that...

When you already have a 25gb free storage on db, you can't get another 25gb.

Currently Clove.co.uk is taking preorders for £425. Check this http://www.clove.co.uk/htc-one
Same was happened when one x was released. I am sure 32gb version will be priced for <40k

Free 25GB of Dropbox is for Sense 4 and Sense 4+ promotional activities. Sense 5 is not in the list yet. Spend some money for extra storage or make sure your loved ones join dropbox with your invitation mail and grab 500MB for each.

The 64 gb variant will definetly be for asian markets including INDIA..because we dont have carrier locked phones here..in the US carriers want people to get lower storage so they can sell their cloud storage.
Re: HTC One Indian buyers only
And people.. don't worry.. high prices.. there will always be takers.. they know the market better than us..
And I am not paying extra for dropbox.. I'm already paing a large sum... So I will expect some goodies...

Anandtech's "Mega" HTC One review>>
I've never given any smartphone an editors choice award before, though I daily regret not giving the One S an award of some kind. For the HTC One I'm giving our Editors Choice Gold award, which is our second highest award. The One is an incredibly awesome device
I'm a big fan of the HTC One and can see myself using it for quite a while, even without seeing necessarily everything of its main upcoming contenders. It's a device which amazingly is built to the kind of specifications I'd want from a device — huge emphasis on camera, all metal construction with actively tuned antennas, and a powerful SoC inside.

yes i will. I will get a review unit in the next few weeks from htc as well so i can give you some early impressions as well
Most other retailers also mention the 15th of march. It's probably just a PR thingy for Vodafone - I don't expect them to sell many devices, it's just to create some buzz. But I'm not sure whether the info is correct as they seem to be the only ones doing it, which is strange. However, it seems that the information comes from Vodafone directly.
On a different note, I have a question regarding the speakers:
Consider being on a call, talking, when suddenly you receive an SMS with maxed out volume. Wouldn't that make your head explode as one of the speakers is directly at your ear?!?!
HTC Flagship - HTC One - Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 600 - Mega Information Thread
Just saw your post on Hamdir's thread. I will follow his thread regularly and from now I follow this too.
I will get the device as soon as it was released, thinking of my one x, whether to keep it or sell it. If the price was <700 usd, I will keep my one x. Just now OneX development is getting better and the device is so smooth after JB, so can't sell it.

I am worried about it, too... It was like that on a mobile phone I once had. However I guess HTC will use the proximity sensor to turn down the volume to a safe level.

I just hope they thought about it (this would be the perfect solution actually - just turn off the upper speaker completely).

I don't think the message tone will be active when the call is active. I never had that on OneX or dhd.

Of course it is active on the One X. I'm not 100% sure if it is the case for SMS, as I rarely use SMS anyways, but it is certainly true for GMail.
Where's Hamdir?
Anyway I hope we will see reviews very soon,I am very curious about the stereo speakers,screen under sunlight and camera performances

I'm talking about the SMS tone. There's a notification in the status bar when we got a message while in call, no tone. At least for me.

Well, that's details - I'm talking about messaging tones in general, regardless of the source. It happens definitely with my One X for various types of notifications.

Then it would be suggestible to use a headset for calls. It's good for health too.
Just kidding.

Or simply only making calls with activated loudspeakers and holding the device 50cm in front of you. Preferrable in a train or bus.

Anandtech's "Mega" HTC One review>>
I've never given any smartphone an editors choice award before, though I daily regret not giving the One S an award of some kind. For the HTC One I'm giving our Editors Choice Gold award, which is our second highest award. The One is an incredibly awesome device
I'm a big fan of the HTC One and can see myself using it for quite a while, even without seeing necessarily everything of its main upcoming contenders. It's a device which amazingly is built to the kind of specifications I'd want from a device — huge emphasis on camera, all metal construction with actively tuned antennas, and a powerful SoC inside.

After the Out of Topic trouble we faced in the old thread, the mods and myself decided to start a new a sticky mega information thread, this time in read only format
The new thread will post news strictly to HTC One (M7) hardware and software, it will also cover tests, reviews and finds about various topics like the Snapdragon 600 SOC, Adreno 320 GPU, Ultrapixel camera, Sense 5, Google Edition, future updates, Gaming performance and Custom kernels
If anybody feels i have missed a piece of important information you can send it to me via PM and i will be sure to give you the credits
For those who like to continue the more general HTC action from the old thread, I will be contributing to the following Off-topic thread by @DeSaint2:

Go to the screen tab and reduce the value you think is causing the tint, for example on my HTC One i always felt its a little on the green side, in order to reach the perfect white balance make sure to reduce in very small amounts and keep in mind it will only work after a reboot

The Unwired: HTC STARTS SOFTWARE UPDATE ROLL-OUT FOR THE HTC ONE - ADDS SUPPORT FOR HTC MINI+ AND GOOGLE KEYBOARD - 2.24.401.8
HTC has just started to roll-out a minor firmware update for the HTC One, which already hit France. According to the provided information, the v2.24.401.8 update, which only is 32 MB small, is said to add compatibility for the upcoming HTC Mini+ remote control as well as the original Google Android keyboard, which is available from the Android Google Play market as a free download. If HTC has now started to roll-out a minor firmware update, which contains support for the HTC Mini+, it shouldn't take too long anymore to see it released in Europe, even if HTC has yet not officially announced it but all we have is the::unwired's earlier observation of a software update as well as Clove's later blog post of the expected launch.

A really thorough HTC One hardware review from the ARHD Blog
ARHD Blog: HTC One review - Part 2: Hardware
Some highlights:
The HTC One is considered by many to be the Android flagship phone of 2013, and has topped the PhoneDog Smartphone Rankings weekly since March 31st. This not only makes it one of the most successful HTC phones of all time, it also means it has been at the #1 spot for longer than even the immensely popular Apple iPhone 5.

It is a real beauty of engineering, with a sleek aluminium casing exceeding even the quality of the iPhone 5, with a superior hardness rating. The unibody polycarbonate body of the HTC One X is a thing of the past, with each individual One casing taking 200 minutes to manufacture.

When compared to the output from the Galaxy S4 or iPhone 5, the difference in quality is night and day. No phone to date can match the HTC One for sound quality. Playing for example racing games on HTC One is a really great experience. Stereo system is just amazing.

However, S600 seems to have enough power to supply, because the speed and fluidity of the HTC One is something to be admired. Every system app can be launched in under 2 seconds, and the overall experience feels very snappy. In fact, the phone feels faster than Galaxy S4, which experiences many micro lags caused by its TouchWiz custom UI. The HTC One doesn't seem to lag at all. The only instance is caused by Android: poor scrolling in some apps.

With the new Snapdragon 800 processors due to be included in phones starting September, the 600 will soon be minorly outdated, but it is still an excellent choice. Bundled with this is the Adreno 320 GPU. This is one of the best GPUs currently available, and beats the PowerVR SGX 544MP3 found in the Galaxy S4. The iPhone 5 also uses a PowerVR, and due to it’s smaller screen size and resolution, this phone will generally play games smoother than on the HTC One, however at the cost of screen size.

One of the main issues which HTC had to tackle during the designing process of the HTC One was a how to ensure the device wan't susceptible to capacitive detuning, where the human hand would stop the radio form functioning correctly. An example of this was the grip of death experienced by the iPhone 4. HTC solved this issue in a unique and clever way: the antennas tune themselves actively in order to ensure the best Standing Wave Ratio and to match impedance during the presence of a hand or case. HTC introduced a new antenna feeding structure to ensure that attenuation doesn't affect the overall antenna performance regardless of how the HTC One is held in the hand. This active antenna tuning is a first for 2013. The actual antennas HTC uses are the metal strips at the top and bottom of the device.

In conclusion, the HTC One has proven itself to be top of the Android class, and thoroughly deserves its extended period as PhoneDog #1 smartphone. The build quality is second to none, and the overall specs definitely don't fall short. On paper, the phone is a beast, but in the hand it's more of a beauty.

HTC One Simple Gaming Boost scripts - Root
While the HTC One mostly ramps up the CPU pretty well on it's own for the majority of (optimized) games, certain games still need a good old fashioned boost to the CPU governor, you can figure out these games when they fluctuate between very smooth fps and laggy for no obvious reason (like lagging in non detailed areas)
Examples of such games are Ripetide GP2, Beach Buggy Blitz, Real Racing 3 and Iron Man 3
Use the attached very simple scripts to boost your CPU quickly before you game and then unboost when you are done

HTC One Adreno 320 GPU - OC GFX Bench tests
By default the GPU is slightly underclocked at 400mhz, using custom kernels it can be easily unclocked to 450mhz (same as the stock clock on the SGS4) or go further to 487mhz
However after 450mhz there is a relation between the GPU And CPU
CPU 1728mhz, GPU 400mhz (stock 2.24.401.8)
CPU 1300mhz, GPU 450mhz
CPU 1500mhz, GPU 450mhz
CPU 1728mhz, GPU 450mhz
CPU 1728mhz, GPU 487mhz
CPU 1890mhz, GPU 487mhz
CPU 2109mhz, GPU 487mhz
18fps / 46fps are the highest GFX scores i could achieve on my HTC One
Going with higher CPU clocks and GPU 487mhz will not yield any benefit it will score the same
Interestingly going with extreme GPU clocks like 533mhz will bring performance crashing all the way down
Anfroud Authority: HTC One: How to master BlinkFeed
Conclusion
The HTC One’s BlinkFeed app is a cool feature that snugly packs
all your favorite content into one page. It is one of the big
reasons that many users love their HTC One, although, arguably,
it’s also one of the big reasons that some users shy away from
the HTC One.
While BlinkFeed is very easy to master, the app’s inability to
accommodate custom media sources frequently cause me to
believe that other similarly natured apps actually work better
and has better flexibility. Though, on the other hand, it’s this
lack of flexibility that makes BlinkFeed easy to master and easy
to use.
Lastly, while BlinkFeed may seem pervasive at first, you can
actually dismiss it from view by setting a different main
homescreen or by using a custom launcher — either of which
doesn’t remove the app from your system. For the latter, you
can take the geeky route: flash a custom ROM.
What do you think of BlinkFeed? Do you use it at all? Or, do you
prefer a different third-party app instead, and if so, what app?
Share your BlinkFeed experiences with us by sounding off in the
comments.

Update: If you download this game from your 3.x ROM with ES 3.0 drivers it will download an improved version with Anti-Aliasing and better color precision, explained in this post
HTC One, 3D Games Performance Report, Asphalt 8 (tested on 2.24.401.8)
This game runs in sub 1080p, around 720p judging from the 1:1 snaps, this game features built-in graphics settings and by default it's set to medium, which can be raised to high, the only difference between the two modes are the added gameloft style lens flare reflections and motion blur, equally medium mode suffers from some dithering and reduced precision in shaders
Performance wise, it runs well in both modes most but suffers from random fps dips, so it joins the rank of games in need of CPU governor boost, once boosted it runs extremely smooth, so make sure to use my
HTC One Simple Gaming Boost scripts - Root
If you are using stock kernel it runs extremely well with the above script until it hits the temperature threshold and throttles the GPU, to fix this you need to either disable ThermalD or use custom kernels like Faux or Elemental X
Medium - Scaled 1080p (dithering)
Medium - Scaled 1080p - Boost (no motion blur, no lens reflections)
Medium 1:1 (dithering)
High - Scaled 1080p (no dithering)
High - Scaled 1080p - Boost (+ motion blur, + lens reflections)
High - Scaled 1080p - Flares (+ motion blur, + lens reflections)
High - 1:1 (no dithering)

HTC M9 / HTC Hima specs
The HTC M9 specs rumored leaked. Same specs as droid turbo. Those specs will be outdated by the time it comes out. They need to step up their game with Snapdragon 810, 16 ultrapixel cam 8mp front cam. 4k screen if possible prob not though. 64 bit processor, 3 gig ram 3gh 30% louder boomsound. I even emailed HTC about it today. I feel they should listen to people about what they need in a phone.

I could care less about the cpu processor at this point. it only can get so good with phones.. The cpu it have now is plenty fine . The camera needs updated, and work on the boom sound some more.
I could care less about a 4k screen
A phone does not need a 64gb processor
so:
-better camaera
-improve boom
-Improve screen
-larger screen
- it will be sweet if they could make the buttons on the side touch
that are just rumored specs, which aren't official yet so yea i assume the real specs will be different!

Who are you. HTC know what they are doing. Most people buy phones every two years, so they are catering to the people with m7s

Most people do NOT buy every 2 years. More like every year , a very small percentage do the every 2 year thing
Show me your source.

Wow are you requesting a spaceship?
1- nothing is called M9 it's HIMA now.
2- No 4K screens yet.
3- bigger speakers bigger camera means way thicker phone.
4- 8MP on the front is #fail. You need something like Ultrapixel so image quality will be the same in sunlight and dark conditions. Even our 5MP front camera sucks in low light.

So you did a quick google search to find the first phoney website that reported user upgrade every 2 years. let alone, the article is dated JUNE 2011.. Failed!!! On so many levels
users now are updating every year, that is why tmobile, Verizon,sprint and ATT offers early upgrading. if it was not a niche for it companies would not be offering it
People are upgrading phones when ever they see one they like which is 6 months to 1 year
try again:silly:

Here's my sources http://www.trustedreviews.com/news/...2-inch-qhd-display-and-snapdragon-805-inbound
The Sony Z4 is supposed to be Snapdragon 810 so HTC should be doing 64bit soon since their mid-range is already 64bit.
HTC One M8
I really hope we are not forced to go above 5" if we want a flagship HTC phone.
Fingerss crossed for:
5" 1080p or QHD
8mp+ ultra pixel
805 sOC
2GB or 3GB ram
32GB minimum storage with SD support
minimum bezel (remove the HTC logo part)
Dual speakers
something like
5.2" would be perfect.
HTC One M8
Bring on HTC 6 inch GPE phone. In 2014 bigger is better

But this will come out 2015. Bigger is better would be so last year
Honestly I don't see trend disappearing any time soon. Go figure a phablet in 2011-2012 with the original note was 5.3 now that is considered normal lol
I need
At least a 5.5 with thin bezels like LG.. (qhd wont really matter, apps are not optimized)
16mp/5mp
805/810
3GB RAM
Louder Boom Sound Speakers
Bigger Battery
32Gb/64Gb

Do you only know people who are all like us? My mom is using a Note 2, one brother an S4, and my other brother a Note 3. One of my buddies is still using an One M7 . Know a few other people who are using older phones than those too.

No way, this might be the case in the US, Europe, Japan and smaller richer Asian countries but definitely not the majority of the people. It's not affordable for them which is precisely why Google wanted to change their tactics and bring out affordable devices that runs latest Android but at a cheaper price like the Moto G(?) and the Nexus devices(Even though it's not widely available). It's common fact that majority of the users of Android still use old Android versions(Honeycomb, Gingerbread, ICS). This is definitely true where I'm at as well, I see a lot of people with early Android devices, most of them walk with S3s, few people have the S4, S5, HTC One M8/M7 or Sony Xperia Z, Z2 haven't even seen anyone with a Z3.
It's not affordable for the majority of people on this planet and statistics like that should include everyone not just those from wealthy 1st world countries where buying a phone every 6months is the fashionable thing to do.
That being said, this entire topic shouldn't even be here, it should be in the OFF-Topic or general section(Not related to a specific device forum). So I just made my post before the close.
