I may be a heretic, but I actually like my M7 better (for the size) than the M8 I have. That .3 inch increase makes it just a little too big and awkward to hang on my belt. Also the sound seemed louder on my M7 compared to the M8. But Bluetooth seems to work better on the M8, with wifi being the same. Battery life is about the same, I usually get two days from each phone. I keep mine in an Otterbox Defender case, but if this one had a belt clip it would be almost the perfect case: Products – URBAN ARMOR GEAR
