Wait is Over! HTC One M8 2014 announced.



Well the wait is over guys and the day we have been waiting for is upon us. HTC announced the successor to one of the best Flagship phones of last year, HTC One. There is no denying the fact that HTC One was one of the most beautiful phones of 2013, HTC really is a master when it comes to
the industrial design. Its metal uni-body with chamfered edges was right up there with the likes of iPhone5 and 5s.



As it seems HTC just perfected the art of already perfect metallic uni-body industrial look of HTC One and have come up with a beauty which they are calling HTC One M8. It makes you think, how can a phone which was near perfect in looks can be bettered in any way. HTC answers the question with their latest offering, which is surely going to give its competitors the run for their money. I sincerely hope that HTC's hard work pays off this time around and their fortunes make a backflip towards success.

Let's take a look at the specifications of HTC One M8:

It seems as if HTC has a winner on its hands once again. But, it remains to be seen how people react to HTC this time around. Personally, I'm irked by that 4 MP camera sensor on the back once again. It seems like a move made in defiance and another attempt by HTC to convince the users that this Ultrapixel technology is still relevant. Boom sound has once again made its way to new flagship which is a crown jewel of One series and successfully sets it apart from the competition.

Micro SD card has made a cut this time as well and is a welcome addition, you can snap in an SD card of up to 128GB. Good move HTC!

So, what do you guys think? Will you buy the new HTC One M8 or are you waiting for another flagship to come out, perhaps GS5?? Share your views in the comments.
