The device is all plastic that deviates from original One iron-clad materials and at a glance, it kinda looks like Moto X. Sporting a 5 inch Full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels) Super LCD3 with Corning Gorilla Glass 3 which gives it ~441 ppi pixel density for crisp and clear details as well as vibrant and beautiful colors for great viewing pleasures.

Powering the device is Snapdragon 801 clocked at 2.5GHz with Adreno 330 GPU - Welcome to the world of high end phones. Performance is undeniably unquestionable. Memory and storage is also ample with 2GB RAM and 16GB Internal storage. If that's not enough, microSD expansion slot gives you more that supports up to 128GB.

Say goodbye to UltraPixels, HTC has abondoned its experiment and now has preceded with a 13MP primary back camera with single LED Flash and for its front it sticks to 5MP wide-angle camera.

HTC One E8 wont be complete with its wide range of connectivity features such as ultra-super speed LTE data connectivity. NFC is also available for one-touch fast connection and future-proof for e-payments. You do have the usual Dual-Band WiFi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0 and GPS.

Sense 6 UI on top of Android 4.4 KitKat, you up to date with fluid and highly optimized software plus other additional features like BlinkFeed and Motion Launch from one of the most noteworthy UI from HTC. Sounds is great enough with its dual stereo front speakers but with Boomsound it takes another level.
