Excellent phone in general although I do think though that the camera could be improved. Its a mystery why HTC did not use at least a 8 megapixel camera. My old s3 takes slightly better pictures with its 8 megapixel camera and that's 2 years old now although the m8 does have superior camera software. The battery lasts all day and is still around 68%, Although I am not a heavy user. I am happy with the HTC 1 M8 with its general layout and super speed it serves me well. Would I buy again, Maybe not, I would have liked the camera to be at least on par with the likes of the I-phone 5 and galaxy s5 as all reviews I have read put these clear where picture quality is concerned.
