HTC’s upcoming M8_EYE will have a 13 megapixel Duo Camera

According to the rumors, HTC is apparently working on a new device which could be known as the M8_EYE. We’re not sure if that is a codename or the actual product name, but it is a name that has been floated around quite recently. The handset is apparently based on the HTC One M8 but will sport a different camera instead.

If you love the HTC One (M8) but you’re not so crazy about its 4-megapixel UltraPixel camera, then I’ve got some good news for you. According to @LlabTooFeR and @upleaks, two prominent leakers, the HTC “M8_EYE” will come equipped with a 13-megapixel Duo Camera on its backside. To compare, the One (M8) features an UltraPixel (4-megapixel) Duo Camera setup. The M8_EYE is also rumored to include Android 4.4.4 and HTC Sense 6.0. HTC has said that its 4-megapixel UltraPixel camera uses larger pixels to capture more light than cameras with higher pixel counts, meaning that the UltraPixel camera ought to perform well in low light. Still, many have criticizedthe One (M8)’s camera as not being as high-quality as its Android counterparts. If this HTC M8_EYE is a One (M8)-like phone with a 13-megapixel rear shooter, it could be a strong contender for king of the Android hill.
