htc_m8_eye It's obvious the HTC M8 Eye is really close to launch, considering the leaks we're getting. An alleged press image, shown above, shows the M8 Eye in all its glory, with the same design as the HTC One (M8), but instead with a stellar 13MP camera and a secondary sensor for depth of field measuring. Aside from those improvements, the same internals as the One (M8) are included, with Snapdragon 801 chipset, 5” 1080p display, and Sense-d Android 4.4.4 KitKat.

The M8 Eye is expected to launch on October 8 alongside an action camera from HTC.

It’s simple, there was quite a backlash shipping a 4MP phone in 2014, despite all the “duo” effects hoopla. The S5 comes with a powerful camera and could be enough to sway folks to Samsung. People want MPs, HTC listened, and adjusted quickly. I for one plan to trade up from my M8 duo to the M8 eye as soon as it drops. That small change makes this the best smartphone on the market today. Bar none.

So they upgrade the camera and push out the same phone again? I don’t get it. HTC makes some great phones but im wondering what the idea behind this is?
