The HTC One M8 went on sale the moment it was announced, so I was wondering who has actually bought the smartphone yet? Can you provide any feedback on your thoughts so far?

I tried out the M8 over the weekend and took some time to get to konw the camera, and I actually really like it! It took some getting used to especially as I am a Galaxy S3 user, so getting away from TouchWiz and trying out Sense 6.0 was quite a new step. I found the HTC Onc M8 to be super fast, I had to catch up to it! Is this where phones are going? Too fast for us to keep up with? I wonder how fast the new Qualcomm 64-bit Snapdragon 810 and 808 chipsets will make phones.

That aside, I would love to hear some feedback about the M8.

I purchased mine the week they came out. I love it! I am a little disappointed in the lag in getting OS updates. They are catering to the Google Play Edition which I don't think is good business.

THanks for the feedback Susan. That suprsises me a bit about the updates, since HTC boasts about getting rapid updates to their customers.

I purchased one the day it came out and returned it 2 days later. The camera was terrible (colors were not accurate, had trouble dealing with environments with high contrast, and manual adjustments only marginally helped). I'm still rocking my GNEX with Shiny ROM 4.4 and just preordered the LG G3.

I love my M8!! Everything about this phone is great. Tried the Samsung phones ?, terrible reception if you are not on WiFi. No complaints, no worries.:D
