Corning Gorilla Glass 4!!!could spell the end of shattered screens.

We've all dropped our phones, and the moment of panic that takes over when it lands face down is almost indescribable. What will you see when you turn it over? Will the screen be intact, or will it have shattered into a thousand pieces? It's come a little too late for the likes of the Nexus 6, but the fourth generation of Gorilla Glass – Corning Gorilla Glass 4 – is on the way, and it could make smashed screens a thing of the past.

Scratching the screen of your phone is one thing, but it does not usually render a phone unusable. Previous generations of Gorilla Glass have helped to all but eliminate pecky scratches from keys, coins and other things that share your pocket with your phone, but smashing is a different matter entirely. Drop your phone onto a hard surface and there's a high chance the screen will break and become unusable.
According to Corning, Gorilla Glass 4 is twice as tough as its nearest rival when it comes to protecting dropped phones. The company's researchers developed a series of drop tests that simulated real-world situations and then used the data from this to develop a new breed of glass that survives a 1 metre drop onto a rough surface 80 percent of the time.
It's not known when Corning Gorilla Glass 4 will be seen in handsets, but the company says that testing is currently underway with a number of customers, so hopefully it won’t be too long before extra protection comes to our screens.
Have you destroyed a phone by smashing its screen? Would you ditch your current phone in favour of one with Corning Gorilla Glass 4?

Battery tips for Galaxy Note 4.Try it ultimate way to save power

The Galaxy Note 4 is the best Android smartphone to get right now and there are countless reasons why: from the extremely useful S Pen stylus, to a great new design, to the software that Samsung has filled it with. That being said, many of these perks make the Note 4 a battery hungry beast and the 3,220 mAh battery capacity, though it is above average by smartphone standards, can only go so far. Here are our Galaxy Note 4 battery tips to help you get the most out of your battery.

Here are some tips on how to save the Galaxy Note 4 battery! / © ANDROIDPIT

Make sure of the Galaxy Note 4 battery saving modes

Enable Power Saving mode
In its most recent smartphones, Samsung has included two battery saving features to help extend battery life: power saving mode and ultra power saving mode. Both are useful and obviously the latter takes saving those last milliamperes of juice to the next level. Power saving mode allows you to stop apps that are running in the background from using mobile networks. You can also turn on the Grayscale mode which will remove all the often battery-sucking colors and wallpaper.
Switch on the Galaxy Note 4 Ultra Power Saving mode
Ultra power saving mode goes a step further: it changes the colors of the screen to grayscale, restricts app usage to only allow essential apps and those selected by you, turns off mobile data as soon as the screen shuts off, and finally turns off other connectivity features like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

Turn down the Note 4 screen brightness

If you don’t want to enable either of the features above, there are some other steps you can take to the reduce battery consumption, some of which are as simple as dimming the screen brightness. For this, swipe down the notification shade and untick the Auto box, then reduce the screen brightness to as low as you want.

Use a darker wallpaper

The biggest battery suck of them all is the screen and sometimes reducing the brightness won’t be enough. Getting a dark wallpaper or background will actually do wonders. Though this might sound like late advice, since one of the key reasons to get a Note 4 is because of how amazingly brilliant the screen is, if you are feeling desperate and manage to find a cool dark background (or go black), then this trick will help make your battery life just a little bit longer. Also, live wallpapers consumer more battery.

A neat way to boost battery life would be to apply a darker background on the Galaxy Note 4.  / © ANDROIDPIT

Ensure the Note 4 isn’t always listening

Having the "Ok Google" Detection for Google Search turned to always listening means that the phone is constantly awake waiting for you to ask it something, which is also a small cause of quick battery decline. You have to weigh what’s most important, battery or being able to quickly launch a voice search by saying Ok Google. If you choose the first, then you can easily turn this off in the settings of the Google Search by tapping on the search bar and then on the menu button on the bottom right corner. In settings under Voice, tap on Ok Google detection and make sure that the box is not ticked for Always on.

Update, update, update!

In the best case scenario, updating your Android phone or tablet should help increase battery life by ironing out any software bugs or problems that might be the cause of quick drain. Even if you might not be in store for an Android update, Samsung also pushes out other types of software fix updates that are worth installing because usually they fix existing pesky problems.

To update the Galaxy Note 4, tap on About device and select Software update to see if one is available. / © ANDROIDPIT

Turn off location services

Location services use up not only battery but also mobile data, so turning it off would be a good idea for saving both of these precious resources. Location services is found in the settings and if you aren’t willing to part with this feature, you can select the Power saving location service mode that will only use this feature when using Wi-Fi and mobile networks, instead of the default high accuracy mode which uses GPS, Wi-Fi and mobile networks.

Get rid of animations

This method, like many on the list, can actually work for a bunch of devices, though some of them might slightly differ from phone to phone. Disabling animations is done in the Developer options of the phone settings. If you don’t have this otherwise hidden list showing up in the About phone section of your settings, you need to unlock it. To do this, tap on About Phone, and then tap on the build number until you see that Developer options has been activated. Hit back to get out of the About phone section and tap on the Developer options. Scroll down to where it says Window animation scale, Transition animation scale and Animator duration scale, and switch these all to off.

You can activate the Developer options by tapping on the build number several times. Once it has given you a pop up message that it's activated, you can reduce the animation scales to zero. / © ANDROIDPIT

Disable vibrate for your email notifications

This is another small step which can actually take your battery a long way, especially if you get a lot of emails like me. Having your phone vibrate constantly can also be really annoying, but thankfully you can switch this off. If you are using Gmail, head into the app and then the settings. From there, select the account in question and tap on Inbox sound and vibrate. In here, untick the vibrate box.

Instead of having your emails vibrating your phone off the table, disable the vibration to save battery and your sanity. / © ANDROIDPIT

Turn off Bluetooth, NFC and GPS

The Samsung Galaxy Note 4 has a great quick setting menu that you get to by swiping down from the top of the screen with two fingers. There you’ll find a bunch of toggles that you can easily switch on or off with a tap. They aren’t in alphabetical order so you’ll have to look around for the various services: turn off Bluetooth, NFC, and GPS if you don’t need them.

Beware of widgets

Widgets can be sneaky little things: depending on the nature of the widget, they update quite often to show fresh information. Usually you will be able to change how often the widget updates in the app settings. For AccuWeather in this example, you can set it to not update automatically at all, for maximum effectiveness.

Widgets can use battery by updating regularly, like the weather widget here. You can adjust the auto refresh for most to ensure that it only updates when you want it to. / © ANDROIDPIT

There are a lot of other things that you can do with your Note 4, and not need to give up all the cool features that it has to offer. You can also check out our general Android tips for saving battery.

Know about the 12 things that you should not do with your Android smartphone

Your Android phone is many things: one of your most precious possessions, a statement of who you are, and maybe even the place where you keep your secrets. And yet many of us don’t protect our phones properly, or we do daft things that could do serious damage to our data or our reputations. What shouldn’t you do with your smartphone?

Wrapping your phone in confectionery is probably a bad idea. / © ANDROIDPIT

According to Paul Simon there are fifty ways to leave your lover, including “hop on the bus, Gus” and “make a new plan, Stan”. What would the list be like if he were singing about phones rather than partners? Would his Android anthem include such advice as “don’t forget to lock the screen, Gene”? Er, probably not, and it’d probably be rubbish - but that doesn’t mean there isn’t a sensible list of things you really shouldn’t do with your smartphone. Here are some of our favourites.

Don’t forget to lock the screen, Gene

A lockable phone is a happy phone - and there are stacks of great lockscreen apps. / © ANDROIDPIT

The more we do on our phones, the more damage someone can do if they can get access to it - and one of the simplest ways to secure your phone is to lock it. There’s no shortage of great lockscreen apps on Android, and many of them add useful features as well as security.

Remember to update, Kate

It can be hard keeping tabs on which devices get Android updates, but it’s worth paying attention: each new version of Android is mightier than the last. Google Play Services keep the guts of your device current, but the big updates can make your phone feel brand new all over again.

Don’t charge it over USB, Dee

Remember: chargers good. Laptops bad. / © AndroidPIT

Chargers are not created equal: plugging your phone into your computer’s USB port doesn’t deliver as much juice as when you use a dedicated charger.

Don’t forget to back it up, Chuck

Your life is on your phone. Imagine how you’d feel if you lost the device and it took all your precious photos and top secret world domination plans with it. Backing up isn’t hard, and it’s a very necessary thing to do. As our Kris puts it, “getting good backup habits is like having good dental habits. It may not be the sexiest activity, but the alternative is far worse.”

Don’t store it all online, Caroline

Kris again: “If something happens to your cloud provider, what happens to your data? When MegaUpload shut down a while back there was a whole lot of uploaded data that simply vanished into thin air.” Cloud storage is a great thing, but whether data is in your device or on a faraway server if it matters to you, you should ensure that there’s more than one copy of it in circulation. 

Don’t let it overheat, Pete

We’ve seen stacks of stories about exploding Android phones, and while the culprit is usually a badly made no-name knock-off battery or charger there are still charging issues you should consider. It’s a very bad idea to leave your phone somewhere warm when it’s charging, regularly  letting your battery run to nearly zero is bad for its longevity and you should disconnect it when it’s fully charged.

Don’t leave the screen exposed, Jose

Gorilla Glass is great, but it can only do so much: while it takes a lot to break or seriously damage a smartphone screen, it also takes a lot of money to replace one if it does get damaged. Screen protectors and cases are a kind of gadget insurance: they’re worth buying because the potential costs of not using them are enormous.

Don’t leave it in the rain, Jane

Sony Xperia Z3 users can skip this one, because their phones are dishwasher-proof, but if your phone isn’t waterproof then dampness and extreme humidity are to your phone what sunlight and stakes are to Dracula. Water damage is one of the most common kinds of smartphone damage [http://www.androidpit.com/smartphones-dropped-in-toilet-buy-xperia-z3-or-galaxy-active], and even water resistant devices can only stay submerged for so long. 

Don’t keep photos of your bits, Fritz

If your pics are less family-friendly, don't leave them in your photo gallery. / © ANDROIDPIT

Everybody loves taking selfies, but if your shots are of the, ahem, intimate variety then it’s a very good idea to ensure they’re not in your photo gallery when you pass the phone to a friend, employer or church minister.

Don’t buy it on a plan, Jan

The worst way to buy a cutting-edge smartphone is on a monthly contract: as we discovered with theMoto X 2014, there’s a good chance of massive discounts within a few months of launch. The combination of SIM-only contracts and a little patience pays dividends. 

Don’t let them see your tracks, Jack

If you’ve been using your phone to look at things you shouldn’t, such as, er, top-secret Christmas shopping you’ve been doing, you really don’t want anybody else to see the endless pages of red hot wrapping paper and saucy kindling that you’ve been looking at. The good news is that clearing your browsing history couldn’t be easier.

Don’t install dodgy apps, chaps

Stay safe out there.  / © Gerd Altman/pixelio.de, nh/ANDROIDPIT

Almost all mobile malware targets Android - and in particular, it targets Android users who don’t pay attention to what they’re downloading and who frequent less reputable sources of apps. If you’re sideloading apps from Pirate Pete’s World of Warez, you’re asking for trouble.

What do you think? Are there any smartphone no-nos we've missed?

Warning! OTA updates fails on modified devices for Android 5.0 Lollipop

Android 5.0 Lollipop has been available as an OTA update for a number of devices for a few days now. Devices like the Nexus 5, Moto X and LG G3 already have access to the OTA update, and many more handsets are in line to receive it. But a change to the way the update process works means that for phones and tablets that have been modified, the OTA update will not work.

If you're having trouble with an Android 5.0 Lollipop OTA update, a reflash may be needed. © ANDROIDPIT

The update script used to upgrade from one version of Android to another has been changed. Now, rather than checking and updating individual files, the script looks at a device's system partition as a whole. This, as Android Police points out, means that anyone who has rooted or modified their Android phone or tablet in any way will find that the OTA update will fail.

However, this does not mean that all is lost. While slightly annoying, if you have modified your system partition all you need to do is reflash your device with a stock Android image. With this done you can then reattempt the OTA update and it should be successful.

Another option is to manually upgrade to Lolliop. Factory images for Android 5.0 Lollipop are available for some Nexus devices – we've looked at how you can install the update on a Nexus 5 and how to upgrade a Nexus 7 – and images will be made available for other handsets in the coming weeks and months.

Root Nexus 5 on Android 5.0 Lollipop

The Android 5.0 Lollipop glue has not even set on the Nexus 5 yet, but there is already an exploit out to provide you with beautiful root privileges. Here's how to root the Nexus 5 on Android 5.0 Lollipop.

Get rooted on your Nexus 5 with Android 5.0 Lollipop! © AndroidPIT

Note: This procedure wipes all data from your device, so make a backup before you get started. Also, as with all root-related processes, there are inherent risks involved. Make sure you are OK with them before proceeding, as neither AndroidPIT not myself assume any responsibility for nasty eventuations that occur through your indulgence in the directives forthcoming. This tutorial is for the Nexus 5 with an unlocked bootloader running stock Android 5.0 Lollipop (build number LRX21O).

How to root Nexus 5 on Android 5.0 Lollipop

1. Make sure your phone has USB Debugging enabled in Developer Options. If you don't have this option in Settings already, go to Settings > About Phone and tap Build Number until the notification that Developer Options have been enabled pops up. Then back out a step and you'll see it at the bottom of your Settings menu.
2. Make sure you have the Nexus 5 USB Drivers installed on your PC.
3. Double check your Nexus 5 battery is charged, and if not, charge that bad boy!
4. Open the ADB Tools folder on your PC. If you don't have it installed already download ADB Tools here.

Make sure Fastboot is in your ADB Tools folder. © AndroidPIT

5. Ensure Fastboot lives in the ADB Tools folder once you're done installing. If it doesn't, download Fastboot for Windows.
6. Download SuperSU on your PC too.
7. Copy the SuperSU zip file to the root directory of your Nexus 5. To do this, connect your Nexus 5 to your PC with a USB cable and copy the file to the place where all the root folders are: not in a folder.
8. Download ClockworkMod custom recovery to your PC and put it in the Platform Tools directory also.
9. Restart your Nexus 5 in Fastboot. Turn it off, then press and hold Power and Volume Down until you see the Fastboot menu. You should still be connected to the PC with a USB cable.
10. Open a Windows Explorer window and head to the Platform Tools folder.

This is the Command prompt window. © AndroidPIT

11. In a blank space in the window, hold Shift and right click your mouse. You'll want to click on Open Command Window Here.
12. Type in the following command:

fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.5-hammerhead.img

13. You'll now be rocking ClockworkMod recovery. Use the volume keys to select Recovery Mode on your Nexus 5 and hit Power to enter it.

This is Fastboot on the Nexus 5: hit Power to enter Recovery Mode. © ANDROIDPIT

14. From CWM, use the volume keys to select ''flash zip from SD card'' and hit Power to confirm, then select ''choose zip from SD card'' – no prizes for guessing what comes next.
15. Scroll to the SuperSU zip you copied over earlier and press power to confirm your selection and got through the installation process.
16. Back out to main menu and reboot your Nexus 5.
17. The first boot will take ages (this is why you charged your battery) – don't freak out. Go have a cup of tea and let it do its thing. Do NOT unplug your phone from your PC or winged monkeys will fly through the window and do all kinds of terrible things to you.
Once your Nexus 5 has rebooted, that's it. You're rooted and ready to roll. Install RootChecker from the Play Store to confirm your root status and if you get stuck in a bootloop (meaning after a long time your phone still hasn't booted up normally), you can switch it off, reboot into Fastboot, go to Recovery and wipe data, wipe cache partition and reboot again. That should do the trick.

Root Checker INSTALL

What's the first thing you're going to do with root on the Nexus 5 running Android 5.0 Lollipop!

CyanogenMod CM12 for Lollipop is coming!!!!

CyanogenMod, arguably the Android community's favorite ROM, just released the 12th version of its M build for CM 11. Bringing bug fixes, improvements, and all new features to its Android 4.4.4 codebase, modders are feeling pretty satisfied. But now Android 5.0 Lollipop is here, so what's the status of the new CyanogenMod update, CM 12?

CyanogenMod 11 M12 has just been released for Android. Find out what it's all about here. / © ANDROIDPIT

Over at the CyanogenMod website, the developers have confirmed that work on CM12 started last week, but that nightlies won't be availble until the end of November, or possibly the start of December. The CyanogenMod team have said that at this point they don't know how many devices are going to "make the transition" from CM11 to CM12 when it launches, but that it looks like the number will be higher than they had "initially hypothesized".
Incorporating the CyanogenMod featureset into an all-new interface is, of course, no small task, so we're impressed to discover we may start seeing the first efforts in just a few short weeks.

Google Play isn't working!!! see here what to do...

Each Android user has probably experienced the Google Play Store suddenly crashing and burning. Whether you get an error message when downloading apps or the Play Store just doesn’t work when you launch, it’s all just really annoying. Here are some tips that will get the Google Play Store working on your phone.

Here is what to do when the Play Store isn't working. @ ANDROIDPIT

1. Empty the cache

In most cases, you just need to empty the cache of the Play Store app. This is a storage area that will temporarily hold data which can then quickly be retrieved again without needing to be reloaded, meaning a page will load quicker. In order to empty this, you just need to open the settings and find the Apps section. Now choose ‘All’ and find the Google Play Store. Tap on it and press on the ‘Empty Cache’ button. Now when you open Google Play, it should run as before.

In the individual app page for Google Play, you can delete the cache, data and uninstall updates.© ANDROIDPIT

2. Delete Data

If the first tip didn’t work, then you can try deleting the data from the Play Store. This pretty much sets the app back to square one and gets rid of a lot of saved information. The option is again found by following the same route as above, but this time you tap on ‘Delete Data’.

3. Uninstall Play Store updates

Even this can help. Sometimes an update will get Google Play all out of whack, so it makes sense to uninstall an update, which you do by going into the settings, search for Google Play Store and press the button that says  ‘Uninstall Updates’. This will revert Google Play back to the original version as it appeared when it was first installed on your device.

4. Google Play Services

Choose the Play Store Services from the App Manager section of your settings and then clear the cache. © ANDROIDPIT

Should Google Play still not work, then emptying the cache for Google Play Services could do the trick. Go to the application manager in your settings, look for Google Play Services and press the ‘Empty Cache’ button.

5. Activate Download Manager

If you have deactivated the Download Manager, Google Play won’t work anymore. To get it back, go to Settings, then App Manager (or equivalent) and all apps. Search for Download Manager and tap on the activate button. However, if this button says deactivate, no worries, this means that the Download Manager is already active.

6. Remove Google account and reinstate

To fix a faulty Google account, remove the account and add it again. © ANDROIDPIT

Get back into the settings of your phone, but this time to ‘Accounts’ and choose Google and select the Google account that you use for Google Play. Tap the action overflow button (the three vertical dots in the top right corner) or menu soft button on a Samsung device and choose ‘Remove Account’. Confirm your choice and reboot your smartphone. Reinstate your Google account once it has completely loaded by going through Settings > Accounts > Add Account > Google.

7. Perform a Factory Data Reset of your smartphone

If you’ve done everything written above and still to no avail, then you might need to resort to the ultimate step of performing a Factory Data Reset of your phone. This could be your only way out of Google Play misery. However, be forewarned that all of your data will be lost, so it is super important to perform a complete backup beforehand. To perform a Factory Data Reset you go to your Settings once again, then ‘Backup and Reset’ and select ‘Factory Data Reset’ at the bottom of the list. Your smartphone will start anew and revert back to how it was when you first got it. Once the process is complete, you can set it up again as before and restore the backup.

Make sure the box is ticked for ''Back up my data''. © ANDROIDPIT

We hope that these tips and tricks have helped you get Google Play working again.
Did these work for you? Do you have any other advice that you could share?

HTC One [E8] review by the androidpcfree : a lighter, cheaper One [M8]

When I hear criticisms of the HTC One (M8), they are usually one of the following four gripes: too heavy, bad camera, don't like metal, too expensive. But what if you could have a lighter, cheaper, plastic M8 with a ''normal'' camera? Well, that's exactly what HTC built. Check out our HTC One (E8) review to see if it's a better One (M8).

© ANDROIDPIT

★★★★☆

Rating

Good👍

• ✓Cheaper than the One (M8)
• ✓Super fast
• ✓Good build quality
• ✓BoomSound speakers are great
• ✓Lighter than the One (M8)

Bad👎

• ✕Camera is about equal to M8, but sucks in low light
• ✕Shiny polycarbonate feels a little cheap

Design & Build Quality

The HTC One (E8) is a pretty nice looking phone, although it is hard to compete with the One (M8) in the style department. The phone is very solidly built, despite the unfortunately shiny surface sheen on the polycarbonate plastic. The One (E8) has the same footprint as the One (M8), although is a little thicker. Other than the plastic build material and different camera setup on the back, it's a very One-looking phone. The biggest difference is in feel: between the cool metallic M8 and the warmer feel of the plastic E8.

The biggest difference is the feel of plastic versus metallic on the back. © ANDROIDPIT

On the sides, where the screen meets the edges, a black polycarbonate trim the height of the display gives the impression of the screen wrapping around to the sides, although it is simply an illusion. Still, it makes the One (E8) quite unique looking and recognizable and of course, the shock absorbency properties of plastic are much better than metal. As far as the all-important weight question goes, there's only 15 grams in it: the One (E8) comes in at a lighter 145 grams.

There's the same BoomSound front-facing stereo speakers (which are just as good as those on the One (M8)), HTC logo bezel and off-center USB 2.0 charging port and headphone port at the bottom. However, HTC decided to center the power button up top and give it a funky texture. All the trays and other buttons are in the familiar places. On the back, the big difference, other than the material, is the camera lens, which follows the same style as the One (M8) but puts the single LED flash where the One (M8)'s depth camera was and replaces the Duo Camera with a regular 13 MP lens.

Display

The One (E8) features the same 5.0-inch Full HD Super LCD3 display with 1,920 x 1,080 pixel resolution and 441 pixel per-inch density as the flagship too. It's just as bright as the one found on the One (M8) but ours had a distinctly warmer tint to it than the cool whites on the One (M8) and seemed a little more dull in terms of colors. The difference was so minimal though it could simply be down to minor variations within what is otherwise the exact same panel, as we saw on the multiple LG G3's we've had.

Software

No surprises here, the One (E8) rocks Android 4.4.2 and Sense 6, with an update to Sense 7 and Android 5.0 coming in the near future (by the end of January or early February). The Sense UI is super fast on the One (E8) and all your favorite features are back: BlinkFeed, Zoe Mode and well, that's about it.

The Settings menu and Recent Apps list are nicely laid out and clean in Sense.© ANDROIDPIT

HTC has increasingly been pushing its software to the Play Store so things can be updated independently of a major firmware upgrade and we like this. The issue is that the apps and services that aren't Play Store updateable can lag behind: for example, our E8 is still rocking an old version of the camera app.

Performance

The HTC One (E8) specs include the Snapdragon 801 MSM8975AC chip clocked at 2.5 GHz (while the slightly earlier M8 is running the marginally older MSM8974AB chip which is clocked at 2.3 GHz in the US and 2.5 in China and Asia). While you won't notice any major differences when just cruising around, using apps or the web, you will notice a significant improvement when launching the camera.

The camera app is where you'll notice the biggest performance difference between the HTC One (E8) and the One (M8). © ANDROIDPIT

The One (E8) launches the camera much faster than the One (M8), which seems painfully sluggish by comparison. However, as you would know if you've ever picked up the One (M8), it is super fast and smooth, and the One (E8) is essentially identical, just with a faster camera. The One (E8) rounds out its specs sheet with 2 GB of RAM, 16 GB of internal storage and Adreno 330 graphics. Of course you've also got microSD expansion.

This is where the One (E8) sets itself apart from its metallic brother: the HTC One (E8) camera replaces the much-maligned Duo Camera with 4 UltraPixel resolution for a 13 MP regular megapixel camera. Compared to the One (M8) this is the where the One (E8) places its bets. Sure, you'll miss out on post-focus action, but who really cares when you can install the Google Camera anyway. So how does it stack up? Pretty good, but not so good it'll knock your socks off. Take a look at the test photos:

As you can see, the 13 MP camera produces pretty standard mid-range results: in perfect conditions outside it captures nice images, but struggles a little to balance out brighter patches of sunshine. (To be fair though, I found it handled high contrast better than the One (M8)). Colors, macro and HDR are solid, but there's nothing here that's going to really impress you. Sure, it's as good as the One (M8) camera, but that camera sucks, so being just as good is hardly a compliment, especially when you've got serious camera competition with the likes of the Galaxy S5 and LG G3. The one big thing the E8 misses out on is low-light performance, which is abysmal compared to UltraPixels.

Battery

The One (E8) battery is the same 2,600 mAh non-removable power pack found in the One (M8) and it delivers equally impressive results. You'll get through a day of proper usage with no problems and the regular power saving mode, along with Extreme Power Saving Mode, can be enabled for that extra power punch when you need it. You've also got fast battery charging via Quick Charge which will get you around 50% in half an hour.

Release Date and Price

The HTC One (E8) release date was in June 2014, going on sale in Asian markets first and coming to the US and the UK a little while later. The HTC One (E8) price varies depending on carrier contracts (30 USD up-front on a two-year sign-in), but is available outright on Amazon for 499 USD for a carrier branded model or 435 USD for an international unlocked version. Compared to the One (M8)'s hefty 599/555 USD for a carrier (contract-free) or international unlocked version.

Pound for pound, the HTC One (E8) is every bit as good as the One (M8). © ANDROIDPIT

Final Verdict

So let's take a look at everything: the One (E8) is lighter, it's less expensive than the One (M8), it has better shock absorbency from the material choice (even if it doesn't look quite as nice as the flagship, in my opinion), and it even has a slightly upgraded CPU. But what about the biggest drawcard of all: the camera? Sadly, that's not quite up to snuff.
To have a cheaper, lighter equivalent to the M8 with a plastic build is a good thing, don't get me wrong, but it's a shame that the uninspiring UltraPixel camera was replaced with an equally uninspiring regular camera (the same one found on the HTC One mini 2). All things considered, it's by no means a bad phone - in fact it's a great phone. But just like the One (M8) I find the camera being the biggest let down. Still, it's 100 USD cheaper than the One (M8). In any case, this commitment to diversification on HTC's part can only be a good thing, and I look forward to the One (E9) just as much as the HTC One (M9).
So,That's it for now.Thank you.
