My m8 is somewhere in my office still. Behind my pixel 5 it has probably been my favorite Android phone.
The HTC M8 goes in my top 5 of most beloved Android devices:
- Note 9
- Moto X 2013
- HTC M8
- Moto G
- Galaxy Nexus
Notable mention: OnePlus One
Galaxy Nexus? Really? Mine lasted maybe 6 hours on battery if I did anything other than keep it in my pocket. Those early 4G days were rough.
That OG Moto X with rubberized back was delicious. First phone in a long time that felt worse with a case, and fit so deftly in the hand. Camera was pretty amazing too for the time.

4,7" screen and the dimple on the back to put your index on. Moreover, the software was truly helpful.
I thought getting the Samsung S4 was the better choice at the time. Bigger screen, slimmer, etc. But the M8's screen was crisper, had stereo speakers, and looked solid. Should have gotten that instead.
