HTC One M8

HTC's One M8 Ace squeezes high-end specs into a prettier, cheaper body

Things to note: this device isn't the sequel to the Butterfly S people have been talking about . No, it's a rejiggered version of the existing One M8 that shares the same 2.5GHz Snapdragon 801 chipset and 5-inch 1080p screen as the version floating around in Asia. The big differences is that those components are packed into a more colorful chassis made of plastic... so much for the aluminum and liquid silicone mix that's rumored to comprise the One M8 Prime's body.
 
HTC's next Windows Phone is coming to Verizon with an awkward name

Other details we've received mostly corroborate what we've seen from @evleaks, with one surprise. In addition to the previously hinted-at presence of features from the Android-based One, like BoomSound speakers and the depth-sensing Duo camera, the One for Windows will also support voice over LTE -- Windows Phone users shouldn't have to wait long to try high-quality calls for themselves. It's not clear whether or not the device will ship with VoLTE out of the box, but Windows Phone 8.1's GDR1 revision (aka Update 1) should add support if it's not ready on launch. The release isn't far away, either. Our tipsters back earlier claims that the Microsoft-powered One is expected to reach at least Verizon during the third quarter, or no later than the end of September.
Best phone from HTC now in Windows Phone :)
 
The device is largely what we expected; it's a straightforward adaptation of the Android-based One for Windows Phone 8.1, complete with custom camera features and TV remote control. There aren't many other clues, although WPCentral has heard that Verizon will carry the handset on August 21st following an already announced HTC event on August 19th.
