HTC has just introduced the HTC One M8 Eye in China, a slightly modified of the flagship smartphone released earlier in the year by the company. The only difference that we could spot between the regular One M8 and the One M8 Eye is that the new version switches from a 4MP “Ultrapixel” camera to a more conventional 13MP primary shooter. The camera on the front remains the same 5 MP camera as on the international HTC One.
The Ultrapixel camera used by the One M8 has been the subject of a lot of criticism, as although the sensor is capable of snapping bright photos in low light conditions, the small resolution of the resulting photos has turned many prospective buyers away from the HTC One M8. We’ve first heard about this version of the One M8 with a 13MP primary camera back in April, and it looks like the leaks were spot on, although it took HTC long enough to bring the One M8 Eye to the market. Although it’s a bit early to say for sure, the One M8 Eye could be a sign that the Taiwanese manufacturer might part from using Ultrapixele cameras on its future flagships.
Aside from the main camera update, the One M8 and the One M8 Eye are the exact same smartphone. This means you get a 5-inch display running a 1080p resolution, a sleek aluminum unibody, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 paired with 2GB of RAM, 16 or 32GB of expandable storage space, a non-removable 2600mAh battery, Android 4.4 KitKat, and the latest version of the HTC Sense UI.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like the HTC One M8 Eye will be available anytime soon in Western markets. As some of you may know, at yesterday’s “Double Exposure” media event, HTC unveiled the Desire Eye, an Android smartphone which comes with a 13MP front-facing camera. Although some of the earlier rumors claimed that the Taiwanese manufacturer will also unveil the HTC One M8 Eye, the smartphone never made its presence at the event, as the only two devices that HTC unveiled are the Desire Eye and the RE camera. The fact that the company has intentionally left out the One M8 Eye from yesterday’s presentation might be a clear sign that HTC isn’t looking to promote its latest One M8 version outside of the Chinese market.
