HTC’s latest bid for smartphone relevance is a 5-inch handset called the HTC One (M8), parentheses and all. At a Tuesday press event in New York, HTC CEO Peter Chou announced the new smartphone, stressing smart industrial design, and what the company calls “another breakthrough camera.”
Key specs include a 440 ppi, 5-inch display, a Snapdragon 801 processor, and a MicroSD slot for removable storage. The handset includes a new Boomsound audio amplifier for 25 percent louder speaker volume than the previous One, and battery life has been increased by 40 percent thanks to a larger cell.
The new smartphone features the sixth version of HTC’s Sense user interface, along with a new iteration of BlinkFeed that allows for creating custom content streams based on personal preferences.
