incredible images in all lighting conditions and rich, high-quality

and photos with immersive images so the user no longer needs separate
applications to find out what’s happening.

crystal-clear sound with rich tones from bass through to treble.
Delivering sound that is 25 percent louderthan the HTC One
(M7), without compromising quality, the HTC One (M8) has dual
front-facing stereo speakers with new amplifiers, redesigned speaker
chambers and a tailored audio profile.
Unique Benefits for Sprint Customers
HTC One (M8) joins the growing list of HD Voice capable mobile phone
from Sprint. This new Sprint standard for mobile phones virtually
eliminates background noise, and sound quality is dramatically enhanced.2 HD
Voice is designed to provide a better experience than a landline. A
typical phone without HD Voice offers four octaves of sound, but a phone
with HD Voice offers seven (10 octaves is considered perfect hearing).
Additionally, customers will have access to the Sprint Framily Plan, a
pricing program available to new and existing customers that lets them
decide who they consider family. The more people added to the group, up
to 10 phone lines, the greater the savings for everyone on the plan.
For one line of service, new Sprint customers pay $55 per month per line
for unlimited talk, text and 1GB of data while on the Sprint network
(excluding taxes and surcharges). For each additional new Sprint
customer who joins the Framily group, the cost per person goes down $5 a
month up to a maximum monthly discount of $30 per line. For only $20 per
month per line, Sprint Framily Plan members can buy up to unlimited data
while on the Sprint network, and they are eligible to get a new phone
every year.
The Sprint Framily Plan is also available to small businesses. Because
each account can be billed separately, the business owner and other
group members can invite employees, business associates and others to
join the Framily group.
