I’ve used the HTC One M8 for a week now. It’s been my primary phone, so it’s had to put up with my daily abuse. As a heavy smartphone user, that’s no small ask. First up, I’m an existing Android owner, so out of the box I …
We’ve become accustomed to stores giving out free gifts with the latest phones, but giving out trainers? That’s a new thing on us. If you buy the HTC One (M8) or HTC One mini 2 they’ll chuck in a pair of mi Adidas trainers which, from what we can make …
It’s dawned on me that I’ve got three handsets here which are pretty interesting. I’m also aware that I’ve not published one of our “Week with” features for some time, so this could be an ideal combination. In my possession I’ve got the HTC Desire 816, which has …
In February we managed to get a brief hands on the Desire 816. Sadly we didn’t get long with it and, at the time, nobody was allowed to turn it on. This week we’ve got some proper hands-on time with the handset. I’ve already fiddled with it for …
The HTC One M8 is possibly one of the best looking phones ever. HTC really have the while design aspect nailed, which in my opinion is partly down to the fact it’s made of one piece of aluminium. So when HTC dilute that wonderful design with variants for …

The HTC One mini 2 (which we’ll call the mini M8 for sanity) is already coming to Three, but now we’re hearing that EE will be taking it also. EE however, will have an exclusive on the “amber gold” version. Available in June, you can pre-order the gold …
This isn’t a math’s lesson before anyone tries to run away. It’s HTC Launching the One Mini 2 “The world’s most grippable android ever” according to HTC. But as all good things come in small packages, lets go see what we can say about this. The specs first are …
With the all-new HTC One (M8) version now available, the slightly older (but still award-winning and rather good) HTC One (M7) is getting cheaper all the time. Right now at Asda Direct you can get the handset SIM-free for just £319. It previously sold for £477. The HTC …
Tried and tested formulas are great, as long as they work that is. HTC obviously think they are onto a good thing and they are jolly well going to continue with it. I’m talking about HTC and their slightly smaller device the HTC One Mini it’s supposed successor …
HTC both announced and launched the new One M8 on the same day, much to the surprise of many. One network who offered the best price (if you wanted it on Pay As You Go) was Three. Three were charging £459.99, however today online and in store prices have jumped to …

The jury is out on whether this is an “octacore” or “octocore”. Let’s just call it an 8-core phone because my spell check says they’re both wrong. This is the catchily-titled HTC D616W and, if I’m honest, it looks a lot like the HTC 816. The spec, however, …
Windows Phone handsets. Remember them? I’m sure that, before the Galaxy S5 launch, the Sony Xperia Z2 announcement, the whole Lenovo deal, the HTC One (M8) event and those Nokia X devices there was some mention of this OS. HTC still remember it and, if WPDang is to …
Ugh… I hate these videos, especially when someone is willfully damaging a handset costing some £470. So, just days after the launch some American chap is dropping the brand new HTC One (M8) off his porch and running over it on his car. I had to watch most …
I’ve just back home and I’m checking out some of the photos I took whilst in London. They were snapped on the brand new HTC One M8 so we can see if the camera is all it’s cracked up to be. These are some of the very first …

We’ve already covered the finer details of the HTC One (M8) so here’s those specifications you’ve been looking for. The device, if we’re honest, looks a lot like the original HTC One, but there’s more power. It’s taller too. The original was 137.4 x 68.2 x 9.3mm, but …
Well, you’ve got to admit, we had plenty of notice on this one. The new HTC One seems to match pretty much all the rumours we’ve read, but the official name is the “HTC One (M8)”. The original HTC One, by the way, had the codename “HTC One …
