HTC One (M8) with Duo Camera, Snapdragon 801 and Android 4.4


                                
                    HTC has finally released the new HTC One (M8) successor of last year’s HTC One (M7). The HTC One (M8) has a 5.0-inch (1920 x 1080 pixels) Full HD display with 441ppi pixel density & Corning Gorilla glass protection,it is  powered by a 2.5 GHz / 2.3 GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor(depending on the market) and runs on Android 4.4 (KitKat) with the new HTC Sense 6.0 UI. It has Duo camera setup with a primary 4MP UltraPixel camera (1/3″ BSI sensor, f/2.0 aperture, 28mm lens, pixel size of 2.0 microns)capable of recording 1080p video @60fps and a secondary rear camera to capture depth information. It has dual LED flash that automatically selects the right tone and intensity based on the scene.
                                         As i have already pointed out that the device has a Duo camera setup which is the real star of the show ,by using Dubbed Duo Camera, the system deploys a second lens to get detailed range/depth information for every pixel. This allows the camera to take shots just as fast as a standard shooter would , but then opens the door for you to do some serious tweaking of the images in post production, making your subjects really stand out from the background.so actually this second camera will not add any image information to the picture but will add the depth information to each pixel which  we believe is the next wave in imaging, which is information imaging. The Duo camera brings new features such as UFocus that uses the depth information to easily change the focus of a photo, Foregrounder feature to apply fun and artistic filters to the background of an image and more.


                             It has a 5-megapixel front-facing camera with 1080p video recording with HDR capability, f/2.0 aperture, BSI sensor and wide angle lens .The device also comes with Dual font-facing stereo speakers with built-in amplifiers and HTC BoomSound technology similar to the first HTC One. The HTC One (M8) has 90 percent metal unibody build, wrapping all the way around the sides for a curved finish. It has new Zoe Camera UI, new BlinkFeed, motion launch feature to unlock the screen or launch an app with single swipe or double-tap.


                       The HTC Sense TV has also been upgraded with new features to display official Facebook and Twitter pages, along with popular hashtags of the TV show you are watching. The 2600 mAh battery in the HTC One (M8) lasts 40% longer compared to the HTC One, says the company.

                                  The HTC One (M8) comes in Gunmetal Gray, Glacial Silver and Amber Gold colors. It would be available across 230 operators globally in 100 countries. It would roll in Australia, Taiwan, UK, Germany, France, China, the US before the end of April.
