Protect yourself from Coronavirus (COVID-19)

The best way to prevent the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic illness is by avoiding your exposure to the virus. Clean your hands often, use soap and water for at least 20 seconds or a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol to clean your hands more frequently.
Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands or after being in the public.
Avoid close contact with people who are sick. Maintain a safe distance between yourself and other people if COVID-19 is spreading in your community.
Stay home if you’re sick and take help from local health authorities and medical professionals.
Make sure to cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or use the inside of your elbow when you cough or sneeze. Properly dispose the used tissues in the trash, and immediately clean your hands with soap and water or a hand sanitizer.
Wear a face mask if you are sick or if you are around other people (e.g., sharing a room or vehicle) and before you enter a healthcare provider’s office. Do not wear a face mask unless you are caring for someone who is sick.

PHUNK is a hugely talented collective of designers and artists whose global perspective and attention to craft mirrors our values on the HTC design team. Their work responds to the world around them in the same way we design for the attitudes and behaviors we see in people during our creative process. We worked closely with PHUNK to integrate their interpretation of the 'Wonderment' theme into the metal unibody of the HTC One (M8), culminating in an exceptional piece of art that is an inspiration to our team and those who will be lucky enough to own one," said Jonah Becker, Head of HTC Design.

"We're celebrating our 20th year in the industry so we were really excited to be involved in something that allows us to further spread our creativity in areas we haven't yet explored, when it comes to innovation in technology. The design created for the HTC One (M8) gives a snapshot of our forthcoming exhibition, which is inspired by, and is an interpretation of, the world around us. It's the first time anyone has been able to cast their eyes on what's to come from our art and design collective, and we are excited to share our passion for cultural spirit, love, joy and magic," quoted Jackson Tan, Co-Founder of Phunk.

The power button of the phone will be placed on the top edge, still sporting HTC's front-sided dual-stereo BoomSound speakers.

The brand new phone arrives in Press render of Red, Blue and Silver color options, which is reported to cost below 500 United States Dollars, once announced officially, as there aren't any definite dates rumoring nearby. From it's internals the smartphone is expected to come out of the box, running a Quad-Core Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor, speeding at 2.5GHz, five-inches Full High Definition Super LCD3 capacitive screen of 1080 x 1920 resolution display, 16 and 32 gigabytes of internal storage capacity (expandable via microSD card slot), two gigabytes of Random Access Memory, eight or 13 megapixels main camera on the back with LED flash and a five megapixels front facing snapper, Bluetooth 4.0 and 4G LTE network support on board, along with a 2,600mAh powered battery and running Android's version 4.4 KitKat on top with proprietary BlinkFeed.

New Press render of HTC One M8 appears in Blue



We really need to count on how many colors and versions are the Taiwanese people preparing their new 2014 flagship smartphone in. We already have the handset in Gunmetal Gray, Glacial Silver and Amber Gold in the markets, where we first saw the smartphone in real 24 Carat Gold in the hands of T-Mobile's CEO, followed by leaked Press render of the M8 in Red flavor for Verizon Wireless, then HTC and Sprint announced the Harman Kardon Edition of One 2014, next was another leak in a girly touch of Pink shade and lately we also heard about HTC's Limited Edition S.H.I.E.L.D One M8 promotional campaign for United States and Canada.

Giving us no big surprise, as we have seen the manufacturer doing the same with their 2013 front runner M7, where today we have a new Press picture coming all the way from the 'red hands' of evleaks, Twitter, posting the phone in an impending Blue color option. There is nothing much mentioned in their latest tweet from the tipster along with this new Press rendered image, than seeing the same smartphone in a Blue paint job also effecting the BlinkFeed. There is still no reads on when the newly dressed phones will arrive, but it doesn't seems to be a long wait from now.

HTC launches limited edition S.H.I.E.L.D One M8



HTC is probably doing everything it can with the Taiwanese company's 2014 leader smartphone, the One 2014 or M8. First we saw the phone popping in a 24 carat Gold variant, new color option leaked for their forerunner, then on the past Wednesday we saw HTC and Sprint announcing special Harman Kardon editions of M8's, followed by the plans of a miniature version One Mini 2 and of course earlier today we also read that HTC have a Premium model of One 2014 cooking deep in their pipelines for a rumored September announcement. Now we have the High-Tech Computer Corporation launching limited edition S.H.I.E.L.D One M8 smartphone in partnership with Marvel.

The phone itself will remain unchanged from it's internals, coming out of the box in the previously announced Gunmetal Gray color shade with the S.H.I.E.L.D logo engraved over to the back of the phone and shipping four dedicated Captain America wallpapers for the homescreen, you can also download them from our source link below. This is really a big deal to all the Captain America fans out there, but we will have to disappoint you a bit for now. Unfortunately the phone being an limited edition, we will not see it come to any store shelves, according to HTC.

But to give you some hopes, the firm is giving away a total of 14 HTC One M8 limited edition S.H.I.E.L.D handsets in a promotion, where HTC USA will ship ten of them and HTC Canada with four. All you have to do to enter you name and win one of this limited edition unit, is to take a Captain America-inspired selfie with the #superselfie hashtag and send it to the company's United States's and Canada's Twitter and Facebook pages, respectively. For more details, click here.

The "Sweepstakes" has already began to take submissions by the 1st of May, 2014 at 12:00 AM Eastern Time, which will end on 15th of May, 2014 at sharp 11:59 PM. And if your an eighteen or above Stateside or Canadian resident, there is nothing stopping you from entering the promotion.

HTC One 2014 (M8) leaks again, this time shows-up in Pink color



HTC's new smartphone and the company's 2014 flagship, One 2014 or M8 has leaked yet another time, in a new color option. Again wearing the same old watermark of evleaks from Twitter, the lately announced smartphone has appeared in a new Pink shade. The light pink color matches well with the slightly brushed metal pattern for the upcoming phone's over all design.

It looks like the Taiwanese are not so happy with the current color palette for their latest front runner handset, as the phone has already made it to the markets in Gunmetal Gray, Glacial Silver and Amber Gold. According to the words from evleaks, HTC will add three new colors to the One (M8) line-up, including the one we see above in Pink with Red (leaked for Verizon Wireless earlier) and Blue, as well. Even though, the new color option don't seems to find interest in most of the boys out there, but we must say all the girls don't find this to be a wrong deal at all. As far as it's availability is concerned, we have previously seen HTC making their smartphone available to it's global consumers, eventually.

HTC announced Harman Kardon edition of One 2014 exclusively for Sprint



The Taiwanese multinational corporation and manufacturer of smartphones and tablets, HTC and United States based telecommunications and wireless service provider Sprint Corporation took the stage at the companies event yesterday at New York to announce their special edition Harman Kardon HTC flagship, One 2014 or M8.

Looking at it's hardware and the design, HTC has done over a new paint job of Black and Gold flavors, where the new phone totally focuses on 'Media Junkie' out there. The new smartphone is said to have industry-leading sound with the company's own proprietary front facing dual-stereo speakers and custom amps. The speakers are capable of HD Audio music reproduction via a 24bit/192kHz DAC, that streams out roughly six times the information of a compact disc and 60 times the information from a MP3 or online music streaming service, when playing high resolution (FLAC) audios, that can be downloaded from sources like, HDtracks.com.

The new Harman Kardon edition of One (M8) also packs in a custom set of Harman Kardon AE-S headphones worth 149 United States Dollars retail price, out of the box, featuring extended audio bass response. In addition the phone has got 160 gigabytes of internal mass storage capacity that can be expanded up to 128 gigabytes through a microSD card slot, a revolutionary new application named, HARMAN's Clari-Fi, which basically restores and "rebuilds" music fidelity that was lost during the audio compression.

Other internal specifications remain the same, attributing five-inches Full High Definition screen of 1080p display, Quad-Core Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor, speeding at 2.3GHz, Duo-Camera of the 'Ultrapixles' fashion, with dual-tone LED flash light and 1080p video recording, access to "world phone" global connectivity and Sprint Spark for high speed LTE network connections, along with crystal clear HD voice performance.

To add some bonus to the announcement, Sprint Wireless will also offer it's customers Harman Kardon Onyx Studio for just $99.99 when bought with the HTC One 2014 (M8) Harman Kardon edition, which is originally worth $399.99 in retail value.

"For years, mobile music has been watered down and compressed into small, low-resolution digital files. The technological advances in smartphone processors and memories make high-quality audio possible today, so Sprint, HARMAN and HTC have partnered to bring this breakthrough to our customers," said Dan Hesse, CEO of Sprint Corporation.

As of it's availability and pricing, the newly announced phone will make it's way to all official Sprint retail stores by 9th of next month, May, where via Sprint Easy-Pay plan customers can bag one for $0 down payment on a 24-months contract for just $28.34 per-month.

HTC One 2014 (M8) leaks in Red for Verizon Wireless



HTC's One 2014 or M8 has again hit the leaks tag, but why after an official announcement? Well, the phone appears on Twitter's database in a new color option, this time too with the watermarking of evleaks. The phone is all set to make it's debut for the largest telecommunications and network provider in the United States, Verizon Wireless.

The Taiwanese firm's 2014 front runner smartphone seems to have got the new paint job of Red flavor, where the previous year we saw HTC doing the same with their 2013 flagship phone, the One (M7), announcing it in Glamour Red, later on. According to the past reports from the internals, it was said that the company is planning to out Blue and Red version of their latest high-end smartphone, soon, where today already witness the Red One (M8) leaking all the way down, courtesy of evleaks, wearing the Verizon and 4G LTE branding prints on it's back. And keeping an eye on evleaks's past track record, they haven't gone wrong many a times in this business. We have doubts of this to be the Stateside carrier, Verizon exclusive, at least at lunch.
