 This is Dan Seifer with The Verge and we are taking a look at the HTC One M8 for Windows. It is quite literally an HTC One M8 running Windows Phone. It's the exact same hardware as the Android version that was released earlier this year. It's got the same single unibody metal frame, same 5 inch 1080p display, the same duo camera on the back with the 4 megapixel ultra pixel camera. It's also got the IR port up top here as well. Quite literally the exact same hardware as the Android version. But it is running Windows Phone 8.1 update which is the latest software from Microsoft. It's got Cortana built in, it's got various tweaks to the start screen here. You can have folders and things like that. You can hide the on screen buttons here. So it's the latest software from Microsoft. It also has a couple of things that HTC has added to support the duo camera and the other unique hardware features on the M8. HTC has built its own camera app which will look really familiar to you if you are familiar or if you used with the Android version. The camera app supports the same type of after the fact features that you can do with the duo camera on Android. It's got the U-Focus and the foregrounder and the 3D dimension thing. So you can tap to refocus using the U-Focus just like you can on Android. HTC has also included its blink feed service. It's now an app that's on the start screen but it looks pretty much the same as it does on Android. And then finally HTC has also built its Sense TV app for Windows now. So it supports the IR port on the top of the M8 so you can program your TV and cable box in there and use the device as a remote. The HTC One M8 from Windows is available starting today from Verizon's website or you can pick it up in Verizon stores tomorrow and it's priced at $99 with a two year contract.
