One (M8) for Windowsby HTC
PROS
- HTC's premium design is a welcomed alternative to Nokia's Lumia lineup.
- The 5-inch display is bright and vivid, and easy to use with one hand.
- The external speakers are some of the best you'll find on a smartphone. Period.
CONS
- The Windows Phone app selection is lacking. You'll find the staples like Facebook and Twitter; just don't expect much more.
- The camera takes decent photos in perfect lighting, and that's about it.
- Despite having the same internals, the Windows Phone version of the M8 suffers from performance issues.
