Bizarre thing to say. The best camera is the one you have with you, and I don't know any people who walk around all the time with a proper camera.

40% longer battery life? Bold claim.

 

[Soul.Survivor]

Battery life seems impressive?

 

[Robbo]

That case is pretty fugly.

Yup.

The M7 battery life was fairly rubbish. 40% is about right with the latest gubbins and bigger battery.

 

[Soul.Survivor]

Ooo, Did he just "Diss" samsung there? Haha

 

[kona786]

The verge video was pretty good. I really wished he asked the design team as to why they wasted space with that front logo area!!

 

[Robbo]

If you break your screen within the first 6 months of purchase, they'll fix it for free? Cool.

Great presentation. It's definitely between this and the Xperia Z2, goodbye Samsung.

Fairly rubbish? I get the same as a Nexus 5 etc

The only problem with this phone I can see is that damn HTC logo on the front!

Sense 6 is pretty nice from my play around on my M7 so far.

We all know who is going to win the battle like normal though it'll be Samsung purely cause of their marketing.

Same. Either this or Z2 for me but HTC's winning so far for me

I still standby £500+.


That height!

that's what I thought.. If I was fine with that size I'd just get a note 3

 

[Robbo]

A shop here have it up for pre-order at £640.

They usually fall in line with UK prices, roughly, so I'd guess £599 based on that. No word from CPW yet.
