    I went ahead and installed Windows 10 on my HTC One M8 - Any questions?

    I must admit that everything seems to be working very smoothly so far on the latest build. Very snappy and much more fluid and responsive. MS had stepped it's game up.

    HTC One (M8) for Windows Post your bugs and defects here

    Anyone else have the bug that locks in my media volume to where I try to adjust it and it stays at one volume. (loud) I usually end up hard resetting and it fixes the problem, only to come back again. Also my ringers don't seem to want to ring no matter how loud I set them. Same with...

    Windows 10 Impressions?

    I don't like it. Period. I actually prefer 8.1. Now I know that the 10 preview is FAR from finished, however I couldn't escape feeling like MS is trying too hard to be all things to everyone. The merging of desktop & metro just did nothing for me. Go figure.

    Why is BlinkFeed so horrible?

    Hi guys. When I owned the HTC One M8 the android version it was a favorite feature of mine and worked rather well. The Windows version on my M8 is pretty terrible. It's SLOW SLOW SLOW with minimal options. Everything else works great on my phone but as an HTC feature it's just so bad on WP. Any...

    So lets talk about that camera....

    I must say that the camera is ok. Not great. Just ok. I have a blackberry passport and the 13 mp shooter on that takes much more crisp and naturally saturated color photos. You'd think HTC would have revamped the processing algorithms or something to achieve better results but then again, what...

    [Review] One month with the One M8 for Windows

    We I got it! I'd forgotten how great the fine metal chassis felt in-hand. The M8 really is a fine piece of machined aluminum. The screen is vivid, crisp & responsive. The speakers sound great as always. The apps I've loaded so far work for me just fine. It's interesting to note how some...

    Windows 10 Impressions?

    I'd love to share my impressions and I plan to do so soon, however I just successfully installed the Windows 10 technical preview on a Dell Inspiron 11 3000 series 2-in-1 with a Pentium Quad Core processor and 4 GB of RAM. May I say.....THERE HAVE BEEN ELEPHANTS THAT HAVE GESTATED FASTER than it...

    Best Camera?

    What's interesting is that everyday shooters, not photography enthusiasts by any stretch tend to find the Ultra Pixel cam to perform just fine. Its fast and it produces nice images that are almost tailor made to upload quickly and easily into social media. The unfortunate thing is that because...

    [Review] One month with the One M8 for Windows

    Good review! Just ordered mine from Verizon and am really looking forward to getting back to WP. I have experienced all kinds of phones and OS's and all I can say is that your daily driver is about so much more than apps and I always find my way back to WP. Sent from my Passport using Tapatalk

    Just Ordered My One M8!!!

    Ok. Just ordered my gunmetal gray 32GB HTC One M8 for WP from Verizon via Edge, (w/ $100 bill credit) not a bad deal! So, I haven't dealt with Vzw and a WP device since I had my old Icon. Tell me my friends, has the support gotten ANY better? How are the software upgrades with this device? I...

    Pro 3 i3 vs. i5

    Blue, you and I are birds of a feather. Lol I think I'm going to continue to hold out a little more. My needs are not urgent and the longer I wait, i.e. closer to the SP4 release, perhaps the price will come down further still. I simply can't justify the investment right now. Really appreciate...
