HTC Launches A Selfie Phone And Action Cam

with 1 comment




At a press event yesterday afternoon in New York City,HTC  launched two new devices: a selfie-friendly smartphone with a high resolution front-facing camera and an action cam designed for one-handed operation.
The HTC Desire Eye sports a 5.2-inch screen, Snapdragon 800 processor and 2400mAh battery. The phone’s unique feature though is that the front-facing camera delivers 13MP images and offers a dual tone flash, the same specs found on the rear camera. In all other respects, the Desire Eye falls in between the company’s flagship One M8 and the midrange Desire 816. Touting the Desire Eye as a phone well-suited for selfies, HTC VP Jonah Becker listed new software features that include an auto timer mode, voice-activated shutter, and the ability to allow simultaneous video capture from both front and rear cameras. Face tracking in the front camera allows the subject to remain in focus while moving around the frame, and there’s the option to share your screen view during a video chat, letting you show off images in your photo library during the chat, for example. The Desire Eye will be sold in the US by AT&T T +0.8%, with the carrier to announce pricing and availability in the coming weeks. read more
