    Sprint HTC One M8 Harman Kardon Edition - $359.99 NO CONTRACT

    Great phone and great price! Good for you! I got in on the unlimited everything guaranteed forever plan when they had it available. Make sure you go into the settings menu and turn on the audio sound enhancement package for that phone. Not much point in have the H-K Edition if you don't use...

    Best/Fastest SD card?

    The Samsung 64 has the highest customer satisfaction raging after 6 months of use. They lead by a wide margin. No formatting necessary either. For whatever reason, the "Leading Brand" was having significant card failure ratings after 4-6 months with HTC customers. I did my homework before...

    Why does my HTC one m8 drain so much overnight?

    Frankly, I leave my phone on the charger all night. I also use my phone to stream Netflix and Hulu while charging. Also, I use Bluetooth 100% of the time due to my smartwatch. I have seen no battery life issues. Even after 10-12 hours at work, using it regularly, I typically come home with...

    What's your favourite HTC One m8 feature?

    Hard to decide. The speakers? The natural color saturation on the screen? The software package for the camera? The Sound quality that far exceeds my $300 iPod? The aluminum body? I can't decide. It's like trying to pick your favorite child. You'd feel guilty if you did... 😊 Posted via...

    HTC One (M8): Case or naked

    Otterbox Defender for me. 3 drops in 6 months only confirms that I need the case...and in 2 years, I will have a phone that looks BEAUTIFUL and brand new in the event I want to sell it... I took the phone out of the Otterbox Defender case to inspect it. Still looks brand new, even after the 3...

    I have the HTC One M8 H-K Edition. Stereo separation from the speakers is great. I'm getting 80+ feet Bluetooth range from it which really practical with all the NEW Bluetooth capable devices being made for the home. Using the phone in one hand is really practical too. Screen graphics on...

    Battery on new HTC One (M8) HK edition

    I've had my H-K Edition since May. I text on my phone quite a bit during the day and surf the net a bit too. I don't use any power saving features at all and my Bluetooth is connected to my Pebble. Typically, I am around 70-75% battery when I get home. I recently did a 17-hr stint at work and...

    Soundquality Thru Headphones of the M8

    I have the M8 H-K edition. The sound quality thru the speakers is unsurpassed. Stereo separation is very apparent out to about 18 inches from the face. The buds that come with H-K Edition are of good quality. Sound quality of my M8 surpasses the sound quality of my $300 IPod to the point that...

    how strong is the signal compared to Samsung devices?

    Hey Coleman! I have the HTC One M8 H-K edition. Wife and daughter have Galaxy S5. The signal strength seems to be better on my M8. Both phones read the same number of bars on signal strength, BUT they do have occasional dropped calls whereas I have none. We live in a rural area and I'm...
