Are you going to get the HTC M8 -Specs, carrier, discussion, and $$$DEALS$$$

I got to hold an M8 dummy phone today, still haven't found a working model to mess with. The metal body is pretty cool, but I wonder if it's going to affect signal strength?

Still waiting to see if I want to upgrade to this or not, on the fence.

In my experience so far it doesn't. I get the same reception as I did with my plastic bodied EVO. My only suggestion is to get a case right away.
 
Go back over his past five or so posts & you'll see....... ;)

Is there an easy way to do this?

Edit: nm figured it out! Damn dude smashed his screen already :S

reason I asked I'm undecided on what case to get..

Either a wallet case or dot view for everyday use or otter box (for work) and naked rest of time.
 
Amazon Sprint $149.99 with upgrade 2 year renewal. Coming from 4G LTE. It'll be here Thursday. Played with one at the Sprint store for a while. Really like the red M7.side by side, the camera on the 7 looked better under some store conditions. Sound on the M7 is easier to hear, the bass is enhanced more.I want the best battery, fastest processor.m8 build details are nicer. M7 is no bad either.cannot wait until the m11. Will there be HTC in 2016?
 
I finally got my hands around the M8 today. I was very impressed. I was killing time while waiting on some meds to be filled down the street from my local Verizon outlet.
With a little luck, I'll be bringing one home with me Friday. I watched a couple of movie trailers and took some pics. Basically just played while the salesman talked it up. It's a sweet machine. I can't wait until I make it mine.
 
Anyone know when the exclusive deal with verizon will end, and they will sell the phones retail at best buy? I want the silver version but they haven't carried it yet:confused:...

I just want my silver htc one :(
 
WELCOME TO ANDROID FORUMS GGearX! :party:

If you are on VZW,it's available for order now.The only other carrier (in the US) to have it in Glacial Silver is AT&T (via BEST BUY),currently listed as COMING SOON.

As for retail availability outside of VZW, Friday (4/11/14) is the date all carriers/BEST BUY is set for in-store availability.

No official word yet on the date for Glacial Silver Model for AT&T though.
 
There is a red M8 coming(credible rumour).

One of the original leaks that went around was a gun metal Blue handset/back panel, I wonder what ever happened with that color...

When I looked at the M8 display at Verizon I thought the darker gray accents were ok, but the back panel was still too light of a color aluminum for my liking. I need some more solid info on the time frame of the possible Black model :(

Breaking: Sprint To Get Harman Kardon Audio Special Edition HTC One M8
Sprint To Get Harman/Kardon Audio Special Edition HTC One M8 | Androidheadlines.com

Here is some interesting speculation from an alleged Sprint employee (he seems pretty real from the nature of his other posts)...
Sprint Special Edition Harman/Kardon M8 - xda-developers
The current phones have been set up with H/K (software? hardware?), but Sprint is waiting for a later date to give an official press release????


I've been hoping/planning to go get the phone Friday/Sat. when it is officially available in Sprint stores (online sales burned me last year), but have been awaiting a Black version since the One Max. Between the continuing rumor or false hope of a Black version, possible H/K edition, and display lottery, I find myself pumping the brakes again.
 
Unfortunately the M8 isn't my next phone . Played with the gold one today... It's my M7 plus a few additional upgrades. I'll hold out for the LG G3
 
Excellence. What I expected. Battery is robust, workmanship is jewel like, fast. Excellent audio for calls and speakers. The camera is as good as any phone camera I have used. Really. The camera is not why I bought it, though.
 
So far I love the Gunmetal Grey over all the others but I like the variety.

Same here,even more so than the standard Glacial Silver from last year.

Funnt thing:
Last year,I was a bit peeved at the lack of color options last year w/T-MOBILE,thought the BLUE woulda been nice.
But,after seeing it up close,I thought otherwise,Not that it looked bad,but,I'd grown weary of such a brightly-colored phone.

Totally diggin' the GUNMETAL GRAY.:)

BLACK would be equally cool,but,I've already had quite a few phones in that shade already.....

I was thinking about mine coming in gold being too bright, but it is going to look totally awesome in GOLD especially since it will be in a BLACK case.
