We’ve received an official press invite to the HTC One M8 launch in Malaysia, set for 8 May 2014. The critically-acclaimed new flagship from HTC has impressed members of the press, and looks to be one of the Kings of smartphones this year. It’s finally coming to Malaysia folks! The event will be officiated by SK Wong, Country Manager of HTC Malaysia and Jack Yang, President of HTC South Asia.

The all-new HTC One (M8) retains its sleek, svelte metallic unibody and features the first ever Duo Camera and other ground-breaking features. The flagship Android houses a 5-inch Full HD display (440PPI) and is powered by the brand new Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor with 2.5Ghz quad-core Krait-class CPUs.

“We went the extra mile to do this the right way at the hardware level,” HTC CEO Peter Chou said in his keynote at the global introduction of the device back in March.

The M8 comes with 4G LTE and runs the latest Android 4.4 KitKat. with the all-new HTC Sense 6. The M8 finally gets a microSD card slot (with support of up to 128GB), an exclusion which was a major deal-breaker for some in last year’s version.

After what we thought was the best Android smartphone in 2013 (the HTC One M7), the new HTC One M8 looks to retain its crown.

More, coming 8 May 2014.
