It also features HTC connect with DLNA for wirelessly streaming media from the phone to a compatible TV or computer.
The front camera is of 5MP resolution and can take sharpest selfies. You don’t have to bother about selfies anymore.

The One series HTC flagship smartphone looses weight and price in the span of one month after the release of One M8. The company has come to competition for itself by releasing HTC One E8 at a very low price compared to One M8. The difference of about 14k rupees between the both is enough make One M8 fall in sales.
