I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting (#MC) for Sprint. I received a product sample to facilitate my review and to thank me for participating. Enjoy learning about the new HTC One!
Just a few weeks ago, a friend of mine was looking to upgrade cell phones and wanted my advice since I love tech and try to stay up to date. There are so many great options out there when it comes time to upgrade, so how do you know which phone to get? As a Sprint ambassador I am so excited that I get to try out a few different phones and tech gadgets this year and hopefully help you know which phone is right for you! If you are a music lover, you will want to check out the HTC One (M8) Harman/Kardon Edition.
Music Lovers love HTC One!
I’m a huge music lover. We don’t use CD’s anymore. All of our music is digital. And most often I just use my phone to play my playlists. So for any music lover that also uses their phone as a double for music; you will love the HTC One!
The HTC One (M8) Harman/Kardon Edition offers unmatched audio quality and a complete music immersion experience. This phone uses patented Clari-Fi™ technology, which analyzes digital audio files in real time and restores what was lost in compression. You’ll swear you’re listening live with LiveStage™ on your headphones. Plus they even have a great wallpaper that offers the hottest music at your finger tips!
The HTC One (M8) Harman/Kardon edition features
- Android 4.4 (kit Kat) which is the newest operating system for androids
- 2600 mAh Lithium Ion Battery which offers 22hr talk time!
- 5 inch Full HD 1080p display for great video experience
- 2.3 GHz Quad Core Snapdragon Processor
- 4.0 – A2DP, AVRCP, GAVDP, HFP, PBAP, HSP, HID, GOEP, OPP, SPP, PAN, Stereo Streaming, AVDTP, OBEX bluetooth options to pair with a large variety of bluetooth accessories
- up to 4G LTE speed
- weights 5.6 oz
- 5 MP front facing camera and Ultrapixels rear facing camera!
Just something fun about the camera; you have 6 different options for capturing images! With a Pan 360 setting, Selfie, Zoe camera, regular camera, video and even Dual Camera! That’s right you can capture front and rear camera views at the same time! That feature is Miss Jade’s Favorite. She loves to take pictures of herself and what she is eating at the same time. LOL. But it is still fun to play with for adults too.
The HTC One (M8) Harman/Kardon edition also comes pre-loaded with Spotify, ready to go to give you instant access to a catalog of more than 20 million popular songs! You can choose from radio mode; create your own station, create your own playlists or do random shuffles!
Seeing as we have been busy moving the last 2 weeks; this truly came in handy! We always work better when we have great music to jam to while we work. So I put on my favorite Pentatonix Music channel on random shuffle and off we went! We had continuous music to keep us hyped up while we packed and cleaned.
But as we are cleaning the entire house; we can’t just use the phone speakers. That’s for more of an intimate listening option. No; for our move we used the awesome Harman Kardon’s Onyx Studio!
The Harman Kardon’s Onyx Studio has 4 speakers, dual passive radiators with easy Bluetooth connection capability! It has a sleek design and produces amazing sound! It also features easy controls; and puts out enough volume that we can listen to great music throughout the entire house without having to lug around a stereo system from room to room as we worked. But it is still light enough that you can move it room to room if you so choose.
The Harman Kardon’s Onyx Studio paired with the HTC One phone in less than 1 minute and was ready for great music. It definitely helped making our moving experience much more enjoyable. And now we are ready to get it set up in the new bigger house for great music as we unpack at the new house!
So if you love bells and whistles in your phone; but with a slight more attention to the sound quality; the HTC One is a great option!
What do you love most about the HTC One phone?
