HTC One (M8) appears in blue

posted by Alan F. / May 12, 2014, 3:32 PM

The HTC One (M8) is expected to be announced and launched later this year in pink, red and blue Not every carrier is expected to get each color, so before you get attached to a specific hue (or a specific carrier), best be sure that everything is just the way you want it to be. In the meantime, we have a picture just tweeted out by the man who sees more leaks than a plumber working on an old brownstone in Manhattan, evleaks.

The picture sent out by the serial leaker, shows the HTC One (M8) in blue. There is no hint on the picture that could give us the name of one of the carriers that might offer the blue model. Mr. Leaks had sent out a tweet late last month of the HTC One (M8) in red, and on the back of the phone was the Verizon logo. But so far, the press shots of the device in blue and in pink do not have a carrier's logo anywhere on the handset.

What does this mean? Well, it means that if you are a Verizon customer and was leaning toward the HTC One (M8) in red, you're in good shape. As for the other colors and other carriers, it is all wide open at this point. There is also no word yet on when these new color options are going to be available. Which one do you like the best?

Magenta for Tmo, Red for Verizon, And blue for at&t, crap brown for Sprint, to match their service.

Someone should make a case that resembles the M8. I bet it'd sell well. Heck I might take one in this color too.

While it's good to see more colors available from HTC, they really should be working 24x7 to come out with an updated HTC One that replaces the 4MP duo with a great camera/sensor. The combo of the HTC One M8 + Sony's OIS 13MP camera/sensor would be incredibly awesome. Imagine if HTC were winning some of these photo tests/comparisons. It would really do wonders for the brand and consumer appeal.

If this is the same hue as last year's model it will be gorgeous. Will probably be a best buy exclusive.

Do you even have eyes? The GS5 is crap plastic. The white model looks like a golf ball, and the gold model looks like a band-aid. FACT

I just don't understand Samsung, remember the E71 Nokia it had a steel back plate which you can clip on at the back and take it of to remove the battery, so Samsung should.ve done the same use a premium material instead of cheap tacky low grade plastic

Define cheap tacky low grade plastic? Was the Xperia S cheap when they used plastic? What about HTC DNA, One X, Z compact, iPhone 3gs, your TV, the dashboard of your car, the PS4, PS3, Xbox one, and the list goes on and on. Plastic is durable and it is here to stay with phones.

Seriously? If aluminum and glass are expensive materials why do we see them in soft drink cans and bottles?

Why don't we all drive plastic cars instead of alum You are comparing single layerd alum vs multilayer alum So you rather see plastic bottles served in 5 star hotel than serving glass version

I have NOTHING against glass, aluminum and plastic phones, they all do the job for me. And is that you're excuse, make cars out of plastic? Lol Too bad for you, hypercars which are usually the finest cars on the planet moved on from using aluminum into using carbon fiber. All Lumia phones are made of plastic, every LG phone, every HTC phone other than the One series, even Apple went with plastic last year, so deal with it. It is one thing to hate a company, but totally an absurd thing to hate on a type of materials used in almost every industry, it is like saying you hate tomatoes and sacrifice your time to bash it online. 1200 comments in less than 2 months says a lot about you.

Better yet, bombard aluminum with high doses of soft xrays, turns aluminum clearish. At least the stuff the gov allows to be known about. I imagine theirs is completely clear for use in spy planes and space craft. Yup, just like Scotty mentioned, transparent aluminum, a new state of matter. Otherwise, T6 is good enough. Maybe add HA-III.
