The HTC One M8 is undeniably the world’s most beautiful smartphone to date. On top of that, the One M8 is fast and powerful making it a strong contender for 2014’s smartphone of the year. However, getting a device like that will surely cut a hole in your pocket.
HTC is aware of it and as great as the One M8 is, it is not for everyone. With that in mind, the Taiwanese company created the E8 that is turning into the company’s all-time best seller. It is the best move HTC has ever made in a long time.
The One E8 is basically a doppelganger to the original One M8. Everything about it is identical to the One M8. This includes looks, screen size, processors, storage space and many more. However, the build material is different.
Instead of opting for metal, the One E8 is built with plastic. This drastically reduced the price tag of the E8 making it more affordable than ever. Even sales of the E8 are doing well. During the device’s launching in China, HTC managed to sell 50,000 units in just 15 minutes.
Now, consumers can settle with a super powerful device with value in mind. The One E8 might not be the beauty like the M8 but it is surely a beast. A cheap beast.
