KZfaq algorithm: hey guys, remember when HTC had two rear camera and portrait mode ahead of pretty much everyone else?

You're an impressive young man. I'm an old guy and didn't understand half of the stuff you talked about if I'm to be honest about it. You'll have a great career. Good luck.

Who else was sitting in Quarantine and got this in their Recommended lmao

There was a time when MKBHD was excited to have 128gb expandable memory😂

Back when HTC was one of the best players on the market, miss that guys. 😭

2014-Expandable memory upto 128gb..(mind blown) insane.. 2019-It is offered with 128gb memory with upto 1TB expandable..which is just FINE

This phone is a legend... I came back to watch this video and think why in the hell HTC decided to do glass phones these days. There's something about the metal that HTC uses in their phones that for me they look and feel special.

People watching this video in the 2020 Quarantine, hit like.

The M8 in Gunmetal Grey is still one of the best looking phones that have been made

This phone was so ahead of it's time, a shame htc never took off or came to my country.

Still using mine in 2018 and runs just as well as when I got it in early 2015.

This phone was ahead of the game when it came out, and I absolutely loved it.

just when I thought your videos couldn't get any better I get surprised, this might be your best work yet.

**iphone se 2 releases** *youtube: *recommends videos of smartphones from 6 years ago*

Who misses htc in mid 2019?

This phone will always hold a special place in my heart

This phone is truly greatness. The metal construction, fast processor, boomsound stereo speaker, swipe gestures, Blinkfeed, IR blaster, etc, easily a premium device. And HTC was generous enough to give 32g with $200 with 128GB expandible. Too bad it didn't sell no where near Iphones, and Galaxys. HTC really deserve a lot more sales. This just shows that even the best products don't always sell well

The year is *2020* and I just clicked on this video in the *recommendations.*

really miss this phone and htc

everyone is clamoring about apple and Huawei doing dual camera systems, but much like the metal unibody design, HTC did it first 😉

One of the last great phones htc made. Unfortunately they were out-marketed by Samsung into non-existance

Still rocking this phone on 2018 ;) Aged so well... that metal build made it a beast!

I remember wanting this phone so bad

My first smartphone, and to this day, still my personal favorite ❤️

Mine arrives tomorrow, damn I'm gonna enjoy the fuck out of this!

Finally, not a technomaniac indian dude with a serious speech disorder. Bless your soul, MKBHD.

Hi there 2023 here. This phone still slaps and that boomsound is still booming good. My favorite device in 2014 and the ultra pixel camera was revolutionary. OS was smooth and simple, just right in my opinion.

The way Marques said "A hundred and 28 gigs!!" :V

i like the way this reviewer speaks , i just kept listening, great job

Nice job man, another fantastic video from you. There's an obvious reason why you're the biggest tech channel on KZfaq and this video clearly demonstrates that. Keep them coming Marques!

Wow, look at the vision behind the M8. It already had a dual-cam system and blurring background effect which is a popular and must-have feature these days. It already had the 3D photo effect which is very similar to facebook 3D photo today. The dual front-facing speaker was also a huge win back then and even until now not every flagship phone has this feature. Hats off to HTC and I feel very bad for their situation right now.

That design looks so good even today

I'm going to pass on this phone and I'll tell you why. Preface: I have used this phone for myself. *1). Camera:* Come on, lets face it - this phone doesn't take the best photos. As a person who likes to take the occasional photo, this phone can't do the job. And seriously HTC - You took out optical image stabilization? Come on! *2). Weight:* This phone is completely metal, which is great from a build quality perspective - but to be honest, it REALLY weighs down the phone. *3). Slippery:* This phone has NO grip. You WILL drop this phone if you don't have a case. When Marques says this phone can be slippery - he means it! This thing will fall right between your hands. But keep in mind - if you use a case, your taking away the very thing that people love most about this device - the build quality - the feel of the phone! I commend HTC for being different. Introducing front facing boom speakers, innovating a whole new camera, etc. But with all that being said - I think the cons outweigh the Pros.

They need to update this phone and bring it back!

God I miss this phone! It still looks high end

Let's be honest, you did not look for this.

Really like these longer reviews

Getting one to see how it holds up

This is my favorite phone I have ever had. Man new smartphones used to feel so magical back then lol.

KZfaq algorithm is having a fun day

THOSE PIXELS!

It is 2019 and we miss you HTC :(

I had this for about 2 years, it was an amazing phone.

Feels crazy to be almost watching this in 2024. What a beautiful device, one of my favorites next to the Bold 9900

Just got this phone last week... honestly its amazing.. I just came from a Galaxy S3... Too me its like a mixture of Kit Kat + iOS interface.. its sleek and quite lovely..

gr8 b8 m8 i r8 it 8/8

Ahhh, the nostalgia! Thank you KZfaq algorithm for this recommendation.

i loved this phone but never bought it…whos watching in 2024 😂….loved the mkbhd intro music at this time

MKB4K IS HERE!

This is the best video you have ever done. Not a fanboy, but the quality, the edit, the effects, audio, everything. Perfect. Also, do a separate review for your setup and the GPE m8

Bring this phone back with modern standards

Still using Htc M8 in 2018 Sep. Still works fine from 2014 Nov purchase. Will buy Htc U12 plus Now in November 2018. Hope it works fine as this one did for 4 yrs

Cool... Seems like HTC did it again. I hope it sells well for them

Agreed, the camera is cool, but it has some noticeable flaws of which I hope will be addressed in an update. The battery life is also great, as long as your device lets you charge it after you drain it ;) #HTCOneM8Defect

Truly their peak, loved this phone

Could this be his first video uploaded as 4K?

Now that's why I like #MKBHD reviews! Clean and complete review with all the things that one would need to know. Thanks *****

I truly enjoy watching your reviews ***** They are Very detailed, clean, very Professional. Well done!

I love getting recommendations for these older videos. I loved my gunmetal grey M8 and I wish I could relive those days. Everyone wanted to play music from my phone!! Shame HTC kinda went downhill after this.

2:55 when MKBHD says 128 gigs of storage is insane and my galaxy s10+ has 512 base storage with another 512 sd card...

I am very new to Android and HTC... (I am like more to apple) But im getting a new phone, and im kind of bored of Apple Devices... same repeated stuff to me. So I wanted to get the HTC One M8. I was just not sure which HTC One M8 to get... Do I get HTC One M8 or HTC One M8 Google Play Edition. I have no Idea, 0%, of what the the difference is of these phones... But I did see a KZfaq video online where this guy was playing games on those 2 phones, and it lagged on the HTC One M8, but ran very smoothly on HTC One M8 Google Play Edition. So Im more to Google Play Edition atm, but im just not so sure... Cuz I also saw some Unboxing videos for the both of these Devices, but on the Box of the HTC One M8, it had more features written on it but for the HTC One M8 Google Play Edition, it didnt have those features written on the front of the box... So I was wondering if those features are their for the both of these Devices or only for the HTC One M8? Could anybody help me here? Just like tell me what exactly is the differences between the HTC One M8 and the HTC One M8 Google Play Edition? Thank You!

The design is so eye-catching.

I miss HTC so much, they were my favorite android phones and the One M8 was just great. Sad to see them almost non-existent.

still using my m8 in 2018, i changed the battery for one out on an m9 and it cured my dying at 20% problem

Still using it

I still using this legend phone I wished HTC kept the same design and toughness but sadly the HTC 10 can't compete with others especially the S7 same range .

Make a video on what happened to HTC, they use to make good phones!

This was an absolute beast of a phone. I still have it in my drawer, and I installed sTeam rom. Battery life aside, it is still absolutely usable to this day.

I know someone still using this phone, going strong! He's in the process of trading up to the new U Ultra... When he showed me his M8 in depth, that inspired me to get a 10, and me likey!

Is it only me who thinks M7 looked way better than M8 ? -_-

This phone was ahead of its time... aluminium build, stereo speakers and dual camera

It’s been ten years… I can still remember the day that my mom got her brand new HTC M8, we were all impressed with the cool features of it! As a Taiwanese, I’m really proud of HTC, it was a iconic brand;however, HTC nowadays ….😢

just got mine today amazing performance even though it's 2 years old for those considering getting one go for it but I don't recommend the 16GB model even though you have an option to expand storage great phone great brand enough is said.

M7 is way better looking, HTC took a step back with this M8 :(

Nostalgia!!! Watching this video 2020 brings back a lot of memories! This is one of the most remembered phone that I have ever owned.

Wowww. Dual camera, portrait mode; double speaker. Is this smartphone from 2018? 😂

Totally agree with, it is one of the best phones out there. Plus, the camera is not that bad as some reviewers make it seem. It gets the job done. Besides the camera not being perfect, the phone does everything else really well! I would go as far saying it's one of the best phones I ever had.

What I love most about this phone is that it takes audio quality of both the headphone jack and external speakers, and makes everyone (including pretty much all of the reviewers I've seen) ask why this isn't a standard on phones. I hope this creates pressure for competitors to push the envelope with phone audio in the coming years. Aside from that, I've had this phone for several days and am now just adapting to how slippery this phone is. With that said, once your hand gets used to the phones weight and form factor, then you can easilly think less about holding the phone and more about how fucking beautiful it is.

I finally replaced mine this year - in February of 2019(After 4 years & 7 months!). Battery issues were too many by that time - that is ultimately why I replaced it. I really enjoyed it while I had it. The model I owned (an "HTC One (M8)" - same as the one shown in this video, mine was "grey" though) had one of the very best "Gorilla Glass" types. I never placed a screen protector on it, & it only got three minuscule scratches during all those years... Also; I accidentally dropped it, plus it fell from several places - a few times, & it never chipped nor cracked. 🤗🤗🤗

i will own the phone 5 years now in august and honnestly it's still going strong so i've been pretty glad with the phone :)

The HTC One M8 GPE seems like the perfect phone right now... An SD card slot, nice battery life, great screen, high build quality, good looking phone(*sexiest phone on the planet*), great specs and stock Android.

I always watch your reviews last cause they the best. You do amazing work for a one man show thanks for you effects. P.S In my books you're right up there with the verge and pocketnow. Excellent reviews

Marques this was the best phone purchase. It still turns on

October 2017 and still rocking this phone. What a beast HTC made

You guys heard it here first, mkbhd announces the LG G3 HTC One M8 Review!

That is so true! Consumers buy any PC because of the phones features, and do not focus on specs / processors, battery longevity or bloatware.

My first Flagship device ❤️

I thought this video was so good when I first saw it 3 years ago, and because of it I decided to buy one of my own. 3 years later, I still think that it was a great buy! Thanks MKBHD! Love your crispy videos.

did you shoot this review with the RED?

M8 no h8 but i r8 15/8

I remember owning the M7 and watching this... the M7 and M8 were wayyyyyy ahead of their time and we won’t have a phone ahead of its time the way HTC did for a longggggggg time

FML. I watched ONE HTC video( Downfall of HTC), now I'm getting all these old ass M8 recommendation videos LOL

What games are those?

thus far, the greatest phone of all time.

Back in 2024 because I just had a random flashback about this phone. It was the hidden gem back in the days. Such a good phone, ahead of its time. The only other phones I enjoyed as much were the blackberry bold and iPhone 11

8 years later and the algorithm finally shows me this. Just in time, need a decent replacement for my s22 Ultra

Hope that the next HTC Flagship will have more megapixel camera and a more screen ratio. So that it will look much more better.

Any one know the name of the game he used in this video?

This MKBHD intro is so nostalgic

Best phone HTC ever released hands down. Still got mine laying around with no flaws. Thank you M8 you served me well.
