Great replacement for Android
11 years ago
I had an HTC one x for over 2 years and I spent half a year interning in a mobile solutions team playing with iPhones and iPads and all other mobile devices. Windows phone was the only operating system I didn't extensively play with. And its thoroughly impressed me.
Livetiles are great, they work a lot better than widgets and just feel more accessible than pages of apps on your homescreen. Plus the ability to resize it makes a better feel to it. I want my camera app to be the first thing on my screen, but my facebook tile takes up twice as much space because thats what I always click.
The appearance on the phone itself is very nice. Since you can add images to the background, scrolling looks very nice.
The HTC One for Windows has the great Windows phone 8.1 along with the hardware, feel and appearence of an android phone. I was skeptical at trying a windows phone out because of the fact that the major phones were all Lumias which I didn't like the appearence of. The camera is good for short pictures and the duel front facing speakers always shock me. most devices have one speaker or speakers in the back which really decreases sound quality.
Problems? There are of course problems with every operating system. The OS itself has a few glitches where an app will crash from time to time (happens on all of them). Namely when streaming videos from the web, sometimes if it doesn't buffer enough the video will close. The main concern with anyone is the Apps. There are many missing apps, mostly due to google not supporting windows phone so they do not provide Chrome, youtube, google+ etc. All major apps have stable and free third party softwares that link you to the service. I have my youtube player, music from google music, Tinder, Snapchat and anything else I need.
I like this product and I genuinely think people need to give Windows phone a try. Its now able to compete with the other brands and everything will come if more people buy it.

I like the phone BUT since I had the I phone not many of the apps I used were available for this phone. I kept it for a week and returned it.

So so ecstatic to have this phone!!!

Do you like to have your phone have less battery power than it had when you first plugged it in? Do you enjoy plugging your phone in just to find the next morning that it didn't charge at all? If the only thing that you look for in a phone is a battery that only lasts for around 5 hours max and ok speakers, than the HTC one M8 is the phone for you! The added stress and anxiety have helped me have a greater sense of appreciation for just how stressful life must of been before the cell phone, especially since my cell phone is used for work! If I could give less stars, I definitely would!!
No, I do not recommend this product.

Q: Can i trade my HTC one m8 with Windows for the one with android operating system?
9 years agoOriginally posted on HTC One M8 - Glacial Silver (Certified Pre-Owned)
1 Answer
- A: Hi there todd84! Personally, I’m a big fan of the HTC One M8! It has a sleek design, rock solid durability, and the option for Windows or Android as you see fit! I know having the OS of your choice is definitely a big decision when choosing a smartphone. As far as trading the Windows version of the HTC One M8 for the Android OS version, that would depend highly on how long ago you purchased the device. Each device you purchase from AT&T has a 14 day Buyer’s Remorse Exchange period. This means that for any reason, whether you just don’t like the phone or found something wrong with it, within the first 14 days you can trade it in for another device or a full refund. If you’re within that first 14 days, feel free to take it to your local AT&T store for a trade! Use our Store Locator to find the one nearest to you! https://www.att.com/maps/store-locator.html Hope this helps! Brandon, AT&T Community Specialist9 years agoHelpful?
