    HTC One (M8): Dual Membrane Mic / HDR Mic?

    It sure is! I'm impressed with the range, you can still hear the bass line despite having the guitar amp immediately to the right of the phone. I'd say it's even better than my m7. I haven't had the opportunity to test it at a true concert situation yet though. You can hear an example of that...

    Spofity and SD Card

    Spotify won't put anything on my htc m8's 32GB sd. I installed it after the ad card was put in and tried many times to clear the cache etc. It's sadly all going to the internal storage :( Of any one hears of a fix our pending update let me know! Sent from my 831C using AC Forums mobile app

    HTC One (M8): Dual Membrane Mic / HDR Mic?

    Sure sounds like the M8 could have the dual membrane mics after all! Im waiting to get mine to test next to my m7. It's a huge selling point with all of the concerts my wife and i go to. If the M8 doesnt have them i may need to hold on to the old one after all. I'm wondering if htc's is...

    Re: Share your HTC One (M8) photos, videos, and camera thoughts! +1 Landscapes are not this phones strong point. More of an indoor/night/low light shooter. For people that thought the gn3 was sharper than the ricoh, im pretty sure that is just extra sharpening on the gn3. Also note the...

    HTC One (M8) camera discussion

    Re: Share your HTC One (M8) photos, videos, and camera thoughts! I agree 100%. I do like how well the M8 handles those low light cave shots even if the high end of the dynamic range is a bit clipped. I'm sure the Iphone 5s could do better. My sister in law gets jealous of my One (she has an...

    Re: Share your HTC One (M8) photos, videos, and camera thoughts! Auto awesome is cool too. I just like the zoes (20 full frames and all) and how they automatically integrate without me lifting a finger. I like the phone as a package and the camera is "good enough".

    HTC One (M8) camera discussion

    I had problems with the camera too when I was just reading reviews. I actually hoped that the extra sensor was for increased dynamic range or other quality improvements and could care less about ufocus. Once i looked at all of the various samples with my own eyes instead of reading others...

    Re: Share your HTC One (M8) photos, videos, and camera thoughts! Played with Nova, not bad, but prefered keeping sense on my evolte. Never experienced stock kit kat, but i have heard good things. I considered the N5 a bit but I like the boomsound, (hopefully) dual membrane microphones, and...

    Re: Share your HTC One (M8) photos, videos, and camera thoughts! Me too. I noticed that Colby Brown mentioned having to adjust WB. Seems easy to do in the manual settings adjustments. I have found the One's camera software to be intuitive usually btw. Can get confusing to navigate the...

    Re: Share your HTC One (M8) photos, videos, and camera thoughts! Yup! Excited for the (mostly) manual controls! Bonus that you get to save them as separate "lenses".

    Re: Share your HTC One (M8) photos, videos, and camera thoughts! I can see the noise in the sky for sure. Definitely the result of fewer pixels and the biggest weakness to the One camera. Daylight suffers, on the other hand you get the benefit of faster shutter speeds in low light and a...

    Re: Share your HTC One (M8) photos, videos, and camera thoughts! Then I guess its camera is a moot point to you, nanoSIM and all.

    Re: Share your HTC One (M8) photos, videos, and camera thoughts! "Thanks but no thanks to carrying around a dedicated camera. You people can keep wailing and crying that out all year but it won't change the fact that a phone with a subpar camera is a deal breaker. I don't want a dedicated...
