HTC One (M8) vs HTC One (M7)

[@IsileliCA]

I remember when HTC came out I was like wow that phone looks cool

[@MohanadMIbrahim]

Just improve the camera, HTC. The fucking camera!

[@denorian331]

I continue preferring the anodized aluminum on the HTC One M7 in comparison with the brushed aluminum on the HTC One M8. It feels much more premium.

[@stixxbixby]

I concur.

[@swiftblaqness]

bogellenong correct, IDK why everyone seems to think the brushed metal color is the only option. both the gold and silver have the same finish as the original "one"

[@denorian331]

TommyV_OG Thanks for the info!. I don't know it. Great news.

[@Alxm225]

Does anybody know when the m7 might get an update for the camera to get rid of the purple/yellow tint problem ? Or should I just get a replacement phone?

[@boisterousantiphony]

I have the M7 and the one thing I don't like about it is the 4MP main camera on it. I was hoping that they would improve it with their next flagship phone. But sadly they did not..... But I will still probably be getting it. Lol.

[@boisterousantiphony]

So are you telling me that even with the same exact 4MP shooter, the pictures look better still?

[@boisterousantiphony]

Hmmmm...... Well cool!

[@BingBingKaChing]

Great review, very helpful. I would also like seeing an iPhone 5s vs m8 comparison, given they are both pretty new to the market here!

[@LostTrigger]

Does the m8 come with flash player like the m7?

[@israelberrios2050]

looks like that M7 has the pink tint issue in the camera am I right?

[@ObamakaDabrinze]

John you did not speak about the bezels on the m8

[@KingBat]

My M7 runs Sense 6.0 I don't think you updated it yet.

[@SharkT00th18]

Wish you played a song for us to hear how loud it is otherwise great review and your voice doesn't sound weird to me so don't worry about it

[@MikeTheMovieBuff]

I have both phones and I notice the M7 does better with making whites more vibrant. Also my M8 with auto brightness off keeps dimming while playing videos and random times any ideas? Also I do not have power saver on or even have display checked on under power saver

[@basilfabian05]

Why does my HTC one (M7) shot purple pictures at night ?

[@renelopez116]

Where did you get that wallpaper for your M8?

[@whatsup99s]

I prefer HTC one m7 design more than m8

[@sajtbutt]

You forgot to mention the video camera is better on the M7 due to OIS

[@y578ikgv4]

*….>>>**amzn.to/QcuLke** HTC one M8 only 99$*

[@YoshiKris]

Not really

[@pppete]

"Incremental Updates" on the M8? I'll keep my M7 for another year :D

[@PandaHasSkill]

"Let's see how the speakers perform while I talk over the music"

[@Stardust-wu6ih]

with all the M8 offoring still not giving that big puch to buy, still keeping the M7 and waiting for that big puch.

[@adamschulte5903]

I can't wait to see what the HTC One M9 looks like, but the phone I'm getting for my upgrade is the Motorola Droid Turbo. I want stock Android and that awesome battery :)

[@RafLpz]

*Great comparison review!* Sense 6 looks incredible. Much more than I anticipated.

[@mrrc3963]

Hells yeah!!!

[@_dafuzz_]

Since I have flashed Sense 6, I can't keep my hands off of my One!

[@JohnVelasco]

Thanks a lot! I hope you liked the video.

[@swervemasta]

Matthew Ybarra which Rom is it? I'd like to try

[@_dafuzz_]

InsertCoin

[@Grudlin74]

I'm tired of reviewers bashing the M8 for the 4 ultrapixel camera. ***** explained its reasons last year. Dont you think if they wanted to they could provide a camera phone. Its a phone!! Go back to the early smartphones were we that unhappy with 3 mega pixel? If I wanted better pictures I would buy a camera!! All reviewers take note bash the camera on the M8 and you risk sounding stupid. Instead be breath of fresh air and applaud HTC for not joining the pixel race and enjoy the phone for all its other beautiful features! ***** M8.

[@Durgeshshukla3004]

Hey guys please make reviews on Nokia X series phones.

[@marhubyak]

Cant wait to upgrade from the m7 to m8

[@VoldemortsMissingNose]

The m8s back and home buttons are now on the screen, as opposed to the m7s capacitive buttons. I feel that this definitely takes up the small change in screen size. I actually have an htc evo 3d , and a couple months ago I upgraded to the nexus 5...however I didnt like that the buttons were on the screen. The difference in screen usability was almost nill when compared to my evo 3d with a 4.3" display. Needless to say I have my htc evo 3d again (not just because of that reason though). I would much prefer another htc or a samsung phone.

[@OpoSai]

I would like more pixels on the camera but i dont use it so what the hell.

[@topografer]

The m8 is somehow overdesigned. Too much metal, large speakers, large bezel with the logo under the screen, large logo on the back, large LED flash, two cameras. It tries too much to look nice. M7 had a nice balance i think.

[@armanish07626]

True buddy m7 has the class and texture.... They should had at least retained the texture

[@DragonPupEclipse]

i don't mind the large speakers, but that large bezel with the logo under the screen just makes me don't want to buy the phone anymore.

[@datexasbros]

armanish07626 The texture is only different on the Gunmetal grey model. It is the same on the arctic silver and gold models :)

[@muzzythedon]

Really let down by the camera on the M8. Should've been at least an 8MP with OIS 😑

[@xosincewayback]

Well, I have a friend who has the pervious htc one, n he is saying the battery is more than enough for a daily use, so I believe that m8 with 2600 mAh is going to survive the day with some juice left before it's charging again...

[@bjdeboy]

Wil the m8 come with beats audio like the m7?

[@holin59]

Nope. HTC does not work with Beats anymore, sold their stocks.

[@sety409]

No but don't worry that was just an equalizer. Its not necessary and a lot think the m8 speakers are better :D

[@Benvemuzik91]

Instead of beats there is now a boomsound equalizer

[@papparoniz]

Beats sucks

[@HalmarkCreates]

they paired up with Harmon Kardon instead

[@st213743]

So basically the only difference between the M8 and M7 is that one is newer? Because they basically supply the same specs except for a few additiona installments here or there. Wow HTC.......wow.

[@xMohJeex]

Htc will probably be acquired by end of this year

[@kevinmsft]

Design-wise I like M7 much more. M8 looks like a metal, oversized iPhone 3G.

[@coleodriscoll9620]

I don't know if I should get the htc one m7. I don't see much difference. I don't care about battery much because I don't use battery draining things.

[@MYTMIC]

I always liked the M7 more, looks better

[@ozzydo2314]

Many believe the M7 was the best phone of 2013 ( even won awards for it) so this phone must be good too. Better than cheap plastic.

[@yahoo123aaa]

i considered going for m8 but when i get my hands on m8 i havent seen much of a improvement. Bigger, thicker and worst thing which might be the biggest step down are on screen keys. whats the point of making phone that big when u cant use that extra space on screen cause the keys are there. and i really dont like those rounded edges as well. better performance in games ? not a big deal i dont play any. better speakers ? i am happy with those on m7. Dual camera ? who needs that ?

[@Kerring]

+ozzy do It feels better, but it is not better. Plastic is lighter and doesn't get as hot as aluminium.

[@trujillojason6791]

Hello,,,,I really want to buy one HTC One M8. Currently I am living in Cuba. I have a friend who is going to come to US on July. Anyway, I just want to know that price. How much will it cost me to buy HTC One M8, 16GB, 32GB or 64GB repectively. The rpices of each of these Phones. Please I really want to hear from you guys. Can anybody help me to find out the prices. thank you so mcuh

[@YoshiKris]

I got mine for 640$ on Amazon USA

[@jozzerful2]

My m7 is running 4.4.2 KK sense 6 . Google now! and you just said m7 ppi 486 m8 ppi 440 ,just tough would stick that in .

[@andybrooks6210]

Ive got the htc one m7 in blue its the 4g mofel and ive compared it to the htc one m8 anf my phone was a lot quicker and tracked youre finger a lot better whether thats cause the phone is well looked after with modded updates i dony know but its a lot more responsive

[@coleodriscoll9620]

Will the htc one m7 get the new modern look and camera app in the sense 6 upgrade?

[@Boot_14]

i would say htc one m7 and m8 are the best phones out there right now iphones are over rated sumsungs kinda cheap feeling and somewhat over rated aswell htc holds it down

[@calvinstephens1603]

True that. Even M9 is not at par with M8. Good thing M9 came now M8 is bargain deal plus.google.com/104923498734515538555/posts/7Z1Gm18r5iQ

[@Revelations6]

Stealth black m8?

[@DjangoGroen]

First the name is htc one. And now is it the htc m7? Why?

[@jasonkindo93]

I just dont like the on screen home buttons and that .

[@mmanut]

Great video.

[@mrbigtime81]

i dont like M8. i want M7 as secondary phone. but RED or BLACK pls help :(

[@darkknightforU]

Gold special edition is awesome

[@mrbigtime81]

god the red. thank you. GOld isnt available around here.

[@darkknightforU]

mrbigtime81 what a shame because it makes it look more stylish and expensive, but red is a nice color too that makes people look after you, silver and black is to simple colors as there already is a lot of phones in that color.

[@mrbigtime81]

yeah red is good for now :). thanx.

[@darkknightforU]

Ur welcome :)

[@junzai94]

is your m7 having purple tint issue?? :/

[@jonfederman1595]

Jon V does some good honest reviews!

[@Jamalmarque]

The M7 looks better imo. More balanced and sleek. They should have oomphed up the camera instead of that dual camera gimmick. Its a phone not a camera! But kudos HTC: this is a far better cry from the plastic phones with the same price range.

[@Kevindodson14]

he picked a great song for the music test

[@Errcyco]

There was a point I had an OG One M7 Beats and my roommate had just gotten the M8. We both agreed we liked the M7 better. The feel and everything. His camera was better though, no purple tint at night. The One M7 is what started this whole hobby for me. Amazing device.

[@debaroy1618]

great video

[@swen8950]

anyone tell me htc will lag?

[@justnvmnoname]

Nop, never it's the fastest android device you will ever try

[@swen8950]

***** ok thanks

[@brandenongkp]

Battery life still a lack down

[@optimusl0l741]

but the HTC one m7 has beats audio, cooollllllllll

[@Kyleharris95]

This video might as well be called why the HTC one m8 is better you only listed good things about the new one the m7 has more screen space because it don't have the compasitive buttons while the new m8 has the home and back buttons on the screen taking up more space so all together the m7 does beat the m8 at screen usability

[@xShadow125]

Does the M7 have a 5 inch screen when watching videos or playing games? Also, every Android phone is pushing for on-screen buttons except for Samsung, it's becoming an Android standard and part of the guidelines, so expect the same for M9 and the many years to come.

[@Uusernameeee]

xShadow No, the HTC One (M7) is only 4.7 inches. The M8 Is 5.0 inches.

[@Kyleharris95]

xShadow the point is,is that the m7 don't have on screen buttons with the app drawer on screen also while the m7 has the buttons off screen therefore giving the m7 more screen space for a user

[@sethcabahug]

@bjdeboy Not anymore. HTC ditched Beats Audio for their own Boom sound tech.

[@Dannyar10]

Should be called a comparison not a vs. Of course the newer model is gonna win in all aspects.

[@Kyleharris95]

Agreed all you heard in this one was how the m8 was so much better it should of been a comparison rather than a versus

[@Fillduck]

"By providing a variety of cool shi... uh effects" hahaha

[@Eddie42287]

Sence 6 is coming to HTC One M7 😊

[@optimusl0l741]

both are good ☺ , i prefer both

[@YoshiKris]

The bezeles looks worse on the m7 since the screen is smaller

[@iAnormal13]

I just head so many 'just because', it's annoying, please stop that, and the intro joooohnnn thing is anything too, for a lot of people it is, not just me.

[@FirasXfull]

I'm surprised he didn't say that the iPhone is better ;)

[@insatiable2rossi]

Would he be wrong ? :P

[@0fficialch0sen]

You are way to bias for the m8 plus the m7 has an ad card slot but you pretended that only the m8 did, disappointed

[@MrTrufel]

I would take M8 if it's not that much oval. The M7 looks much better IMO but the One X in aluminium unibody would look much better than anything in the market.

[@MrBekir21]

m7 > m8 the new one is just too big

[@loljuanwtf]

I wish that with Sense 6, they would minimalize the status bar. I hate that annoying NFC and GPS icon.

[@GiovanniCheng]

You can turn them off

[@ZayyanAjaz]

Hello all. HTC one m7 looking more beautiful then m8.also I can say m7 most attractive in design.even better then z2 or samshit s5. I love m7 it's sexiest phone ever. Hope u people will agree with me.

[@TheNitrohp]

htc sucks .....only one android update and thats all....

[@KEEELr]

Stfu. M7 launched with 4.1.2. It got 4.2.2, 4.3 and I believe HTC was one of the first to release 4.4.

[@TheNitrohp]

htc one come with jelly bean ..... originally only have one update ... kitkat... 4.2 .4.3 are minors updates

[@KEEELr]

TheNitrohp Oh.. so you are basically whining that HTC hasnt released Android 5.0? Christ, why do I even bother. Obvious fanboy is obvious.

[@TheNitrohp]

ok i give you a example.... htc one x ... come with 4.0 ics and die with jelly bean.... only 1 update... thats all.

[@7duke77]

TheNitrohp Seriously, if you start with 4.0 then go to 4.1.2 then 4.2.2 and finally on to 4.3 that is FOUR updates, the specific name is irrelevant. ALL updates count, even "small" incremental updates take a lot of work to make everything function properly. Also you have to take into account that no OEM can update faster than Google releases to them...so there's that...Although I'd wager you have no clue what it takes to make software work, let alone an operating system.

the m7 design looks better
