Rumor: HTC M8 With Plastic Body To Make The Phone More Affordable

Reports on this story suggest that the phone will have outside body of plastic rather than metal. However the configuration and design of both the phones would have no distinct changes. The issue behind HTCâs this move is believed to be the high cost of metal pieces whereas the plastic variant of same model would make it available at low-cost.
As reported by a <a href="https://www.tmtpost.com/104522.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">ãç¬å®¶ãå²è®½ä¸æGalaxy为å»ä»·å¡ææºçHTCï¼å°æ¨å¡æçM8-éåªä½å®æ¹ç½ç«</a>, the phone would be priced around 3000 Yuan (approx. Rs 29,000). HTC unveiled 4G version of One M8 in china just a couple of days ago, with price tag of 5299 Yuan (approx. Rs 51,300). The figures clearly indicate much difference in prices of both variants.
