Customer Ratings & Reviews

Phone speed is so fast, takes seconds to load something. No wait time. Camera is amazing.

Had the HTC and went to the HTC one. So many changes I still have problems, with messages and send photo. I liked the old phone, but this one sucks so far.

Such a great phone! does everything i want and is super fast! I love it!

The ultrapixel camera clarity for taking photo front and back at the same time, nice.

Best phone money can buy, had an iPhone 5, but iPhones suck. This phone is way better any iPhone now and forever.

I had the first HTC and kept it for four and a half years now I have the HTC One and hope to have another 4 years recommend it to all .

Great! I switched from an iPhone to the HTC and I'm so glad I did. Amazing phone.

Phone would restart every 30 seconds, tried factory reset and it wouldn't reset, HTC gave me a hidden way to factory reset-still didn't reset, sent to HTC, they tried to charge me $140 for the battery cover to be replaced as the issue...still didn't get the phone returned to factory despite the assurance that all phones have to be reset when they enter the repair facility. Shotty phone, worse customer service, would not buy another HTC ever again.

I've had various phones over the years of all major brands. I've had the usual problems as well. This is fast basic phone, for a good price.

Besides the battery not being quite as good as I hoped for, the overall experience of the phone is awesome.

bought for son, great streaming video quality, great audio quality

I purchased this device the same day it was announced. I had been researching all of the leaked information prior to the announcement and knew without a doubt this was the device I wanted. HTC has really stepped up their game with the new M8. Solid construction, lightning fast speeds, and a very well thought out user interface. The device feels great in your hand. The brushed metal casing is exquisite compared to the plastic casings of most other smart phones available today. Setting the device up for first use was a breeze and the Android Kit Kat OS allows for plenty of customization to make the phone truly unique to you. This phone is my first encounter with BoomSound and Man Oh Man is it different. I've had HTC phones in the past, I've had those with increased amplifiers, Beats Audio and more, but this device really stands out above the rest. The stereo quality coming from the front of this handset while watching a movie or just listening to your own media is astounding for coming from a phone! A lot has been said to criticize the camera since it does not have a high end 13+ Megapixel shooter. Instead it only comes with a 4 Ultrapixel unit but with the larger pixels, shots in low light conditions come out great. The second camera on the back of the unit is for depth perception and really makes for a wonderful user experience. I can snap photos as often and as quickly as I can hit the button and then take time later to adjust the focus, zoom, etc for the perfect picture. Most of my photo's are shared digitally and I rarely will send a photo to the printer to be hung on the wall so the cameras equipped into this device are perfect for my own personal needs. Not to mention the 3D effects, fore-ground editing, and seasonal features tend to cause "jaw-dropping" results when displayed to friends and family. HTC's updated Blink Feed is truly amazing for taking a quick look at whats going on in your social media worlds. You can get the highlights of all your social media networks in one place, or individualize your feed to one service at a time. Clicking on anything in BlinkFeed opens the specific social media app and takes you directly to the post you're interested in. Battery life is always a bit of a concern but the 2600 mAh battery seems to do just fine. I can pull the phone off the charger just before I leave for work (around 8:00am) and with normal use, a bit of gaming on my breaks, and even some music streaming during my evening workout (with headphones), I can make it through a full day and put the phone back on the charger around 10:00pm at around 10%. And, with the announcement of HTC Super Power Saver Mode set to be released in an update in the coming months, the battery life will only get better. The new power saver mode is said to disable networking when its not being used or needed but still leave you connected for calls and texts and will allow for the phone to stay on for 10 days in a single charge when activated. This is rumor of course, but if it reaches even 5 days on a single charge while still keeping me connected, its still very impressive. Overall, in my opinion, this phone is the top of the line, best your money can buy, at the time of this review. A few mainstream devices will be released later this year which will create stiff competition for the HTC One (M8) but personally, I dont think a "cheap plastic design with bells and whistles" or a "Lets repeat what we've done for the past 4 years and just add a letter to the end of the name" will be able to compare to the outstanding quality of the HTC One (M8).

Pros: Five inch screen, solid metal frame feel, best sound of any cell phone out there, fast OS, battery that lasts all day and charges fast, UI is better than Samsung. I paid $1 when BB had it for sale before XMAS. If you love music, get this phone. Front speakers is a genius design. Cons: Default keyboard is tough to use, replaced it with Swiftkey app, camera zoom bad with only 4MP so far away pics suck, can't search phone contacts based on name and so you must scroll down entire contacts list to find someone. The placement of the soft keys is weird. I keep hitting them by accident when texting or on Facebook. Heavier phone than Samsung so hold it in one hand before buying it. Took me awhile to get used to a phone that doesn't feel like a toy. Most likely, the M9 will have better camera megapixel, so if you can hold out til April 2015, do so but assume you will pay $200-300. Else buy the M8 now. Its a great phone for apps, calls, text, looking at pics, games, etc. If the camera zoom was better, I'd give it 5 stars.

Got the phone for my wife and she loves it so far! She likes the metal on the phone, other than that it's a phone. Picture quality is meh.... I guess that's her only complaint.

I wished Best Buy would continue to sell HTC. They're just as good as Samsung or iPhone, if not better.

I am very impressed with this phone, it does everything I want it to do

Bought this phone while the 50$ sale was going. Have never been disappointed!

Wanted to switch back to android from Apple. Glad I chose HTC ONE!!

I absolutely love it. Its probably the best phone I've ever had.

If you try to share photographs or open the files on a PC, photographs will be pixelated. Quality of photographs is excellent only if you use HTC phone or similar quality.
