Brian Bennett 2/19/2013 3:34:22 PMHmmm, Sense TV. I wonder how that's going to work...it was glossed over in a big way.
-
Roger Cheng 2/19/2013 3:34:32 PMThe new HTC One makes the camera experience better, Becker says.

Roger Cheng 2/19/2013 3:36:23 PMCue the promotional video talking about why megapixels don't matter. HTC does have a point though.

Roger Cheng 2/19/2013 3:36:45 PM"The era of the megapixel is over," Becker says.
-
Roger Cheng 2/19/2013 3:37:03 PMSo Ultrapixel is a custom HTC technology. It gets more light than traditional sensors, which means better low-light photos.

Brian Bennett 2/19/2013 3:37:31 PMWhen a phone can reliably shoot party pics in low light, then I'll believe this.
