Are you going to get the HTC M8 -Specs, carrier, discussion, and $$$DEALS$$$

Aha: just been watching the video that went up overnight, and assuming it's real (and it's much harder to fake than a still image or a spec sheet) there seems to be an extra slot on the other side :)

I think he said the slot on one side was for a "nano SD card" and the slot on the other was for the sim card.

I wish it had a removable battery.

LG G2 pro, HTC M8, or Sony Experia Z2 - Decisions, decisions, decisions.

Removable storage is more important to me than a removable battery. I've never owned a phone that I couldn't snap in another battery. I've never owned a phone that I didn't purchase an additional battery for. I can't remember every snapping in another battery.
I guess it's not so big a deal and certainly not a deal breaker for me. So, if the back doesn't come off, I'm still all over this bad boy.

I've found that phones with removable backs begin to lookb bad over time. Hinges come loose and such.

I'm out. Next phone will be a Sony or LG. I've owned over 6 HTC flagships, and I'm tired of the same ole same ole. Sense has only slightly changed and the phones have only grown incrementally. The One is the best phone when you really look at the changes, but this company is slowly fading into oblivion.

I'm actually leaning towards this over the S5. They both look like great phones, and I'm waiting til this actually launches to compare specs. Like someone else mentioned the whole Knox thing may be the difference maker.

...did they get fired/sued, or what? Links/proof? I say we start a paypal "fund" to help them out. Sure, he messed up, but in the end, this was GOOD press for the phone/company, and suing them will only harm HTC.

Noone really knows for sure what happened to them. There were tweets insinutating they got fired from the kid that leaked it, but then someone else tweeted that they weren't. The kid doesn't exactly seem trustworthy to me after reading his tweets so its hard to take him at his word.

Hmmm, looks like this will be my upgrade if the timing is right. We'll see. :D

I'm interested to see what Sprint will offer the phone for, if it even offers this phone. Will we get this phone or a modded version with the Evo brand?

Regardless, this is a nice looking device, specs aren't too shabby either. Micro SD card slot is a must in my book.
