HTC launched the HTC One M8 in India very recently,
it came with a price tag of 50,000 +.
The device did
not prove to be the best seller in the market but
it managed to make good sales and return some
profit to the company.
Ever since HTC launched
the One M8, we were certain of a budget friendly
brother of the M8 in the production. The device
gave us some glimpse in the past showing off its
plastic body and the single camera setup on the
rear side.
The company has now launched the One E8
officially in India, it is launched for a price of Rs
34,900.
The price definitely does not attract much
as it ditches metal and Duo camera for plastic
unibody design.
It looks like with this smartphone
HTC has played Apple, Apple launched the iPhone
5 and iPhone 5c in a similar fashion and flopped
very badly.
The metal iPhone 5 made great sales but iPhone
5c begged for attention. People even termed it as
the worst iPhone ever. This philosophy may or
may not work for HTC but if the device was
priced under Rs 30,000 we would have been
happy about it. On the spec front the HTC One E8
stands similar to its metal sibling, and varies
mostly in terms of build quality and the Duo
Camera setup.
Here are the specifications of One E8
- 5-inch Full HD display
- 2.5GHz Snapdragon processor
- Android KitKat with HTC Sense 6.0
- Dual SIM
- 13-MP rear and 5-MP front facing camera
- Front facing Dual Speakers
- 2GB RAM, 16GB ROM
- 2,600mAH battery
