Forget the Ace. What y'all are really waiting for is codenamed M8 Prime.

So this is the new trend right now? Release a ''Prime" version of every flagship? lol
The S5 "Prime" looks to be happening. This is just HTC throwing a rumor out there to possibly deter folks from buying whatever Samsung comes up with. HTC doesn't need another M8----this one is just fine.

Could also be to compete with the s5 prime?

Simply put? They can't. I'm hoping this new Silver line starts putting companies like HTC in a position to compete with Samsung. It won't be easy, though. They know exactly how to position their products and even though Touchwiz isn't quite on the level of Sense 6, it's only a matter of time before it will be better.
HTC's design coupled with Google's UI and supposed focus on marketing and in-store presence? That might be enough to start competing with Samsung.

I never said they could compete, but it won't stop them from trying. Last year's One went had to head with the s4, just like this year's One and the s5. Did Samsung sell more devices last year? Will they sell more this year? Sure, but that doesn't mean HTC should give up, I personally think they make a better product.

Not producing a spec bump just because Samsung is doesn't mean they're giving up. They're just being realistic about where they are now in relation to being able to compete with Samsung. Their energy would be better spent learning how to market their product to the masses.

I don't think HTC will do a prime version
The externals are already premium so it would be :
Snapdragon 805
3gb ram
Next gen ultra pixel?
I don't think it would sell any more phones, people who buy a M8 prime would have bought a M8 anyway

Don't forget 2k display. There are still a lot who passed on the m8 and s5 because they thought it wasn't that much of an upgrade from their current device, this might help

I was listing things that would be a benefit and not a waste of resources for negligible gain...
