If you don’t remember, Sprint had a little shindig up in New York City earlier today where they announced an exclusive version of the HTC One M8.
It’s the Harman-Kardon edition, which comes with special Harman-Kardon front-facing speakers, Harman-Kardon branding on the back and a very slick two-tone combination of black and champagne metal. You’ll also get hooked up with some pretty stylish headphones with an inline media control remote.
More than that, though, users on Framily plans will be treated to six free months of Spotify access, which is the premium music streaming service that had everyone going nuts until Google Play Music came along. Beyond that you’ll get it for $8 per month for 24 months, which is just a couple bucks cheaper than standard pricing.
Staying on the road of music, Sprint’s “Sound Sessions” will offer up suggestions for new music for you to check out, and will presumably give you exclusive first access to whatever tunes they’ll be serving up before the rest of gen-pop gets their hands on it. The Harman-Kardon edition will be on sale online this Friday, May 2nd, and will be trotting its way into stores an exact week from then. The device will run you about $28 per month for 24 months with $0 down.
It would be brilliant if you folks can get your hands on one and do a video comparing the sound difference from the original version.
Helluva nice looking color scheme on it. would have been nice to bring the black to the area around the speakers…keep the strips on the back champagne, ring around the camera champagne….
Man that looks pretty sleek. I really wanna know how much of a difference in audio quality between this and the normal M8.
if it is true Harman-Kardon engineering…. it should sound superior to beats audio…or boom sound
Special speakers?
Yeah, right. I bet this is just some cross branding HTC is paying for.
i will never understand why companies insist on doing two tone phones, with the back one color and the front another. it looks so ugly!
too bad this is on sprint!
I am a huge Harman-Kardon fan..my family’s KIA optima has the Infinity Premium system (By Harman-Kardon.
