Hello guys, I am Thomas from Hong Kong. I had bought the HTC E8 (white colour) China Unicom version through online. Used for a week and would like to write a simple unboxing here.
The phone costs me RMB 2999. Package includes: the phone itself, a China brand Power Bank, screen protector, Dot View case and 16G Toshiba class 4 micro SD card. There are several colours of Dot View case and the online seller randomly choose a grey one for me.
The front of the phone is identical with HTC M8, but the back comes with plastic instead of metal like M8. Packing phone, Antutu benchmark screen capture and some sample photos are attached below. I zip the sample photos for convenience.
My using experience:
1. It is a dual sim phone. Sim 1 support 4G network while Sim 2 only support 2G network
2. 5 inch size is perfect for single hand control when compare with the last phone I use ----- LG G Pro which has 5.3 inch of screen
3. With the S801 CPU, it runs very smooth
4. English, Chinese simplified and Chinese tradition (Taiwan) are available as system language.
5. It is compatible with M8 screen protector (I am using a M8 Glass M screen protector and it works great) but NOT compatible with M8 case protector as the position of camera is different
6. There are some local (Mainland China) apps.Some can be uninstall by default. Some cannot unless root the phone.
7. Blinkfeed is available in this phone but the region is set to China only. It only support those Chinese social network apps and IM apps, such as weibo, wechat. It cannot support facebook, twitter.
8. There is no google service by default. However, I can download an app called "GMS Installer" through the HTC Marketplace comes with the phone. Open GMS Installer and it will help you to download and install those google service such as google play, google map etc.
9. Battery is non removable. It can add micro SD Card. NFC is also available in this phone.
10. With daily usage such as listening music, instant messaging, social networking, internet access, the phone can be used around 10 hours or something.
Feel free to ask question, thanks
Hi Thomas,
Is the phone sim-locked to China Unicom?
Thanks.

No, there is no sim lock for this phone. I can use the operator in HK without problem
What do you mean with not supporting facebook and twitter?
After installing Google Services, you can't install facebook or twitter from Google Play?
My mistake, I understand this only applies to Blinkfeed.
Where did you get your phone from? Merimobiles? Efox?
Regarding the non-uninstallable chinese apps, are they always-on, battery-draining services or something you can just ignore without any consequence?
Thank you.

First of all, please forgive my poor English which cause you misunderstand.
I bought it from jd.com and collect though their pickup point in Shenzhen, China
For those non uninstallable Chinese apps, I still can Force close and disable the apps through Setting>Apps

Hi Thomas,
first thanks for your information about the E8.
I have the chance to get one too but i would like to know some details before buying.
Maybe you can help me ?
How is th dual-sim-menue in th E8 ? How does it differ in the top-line ?
I have S4 Dual-Sim GT-I9502. Can you set in the pull down menü the main sim ? Switching that fast ?
How far is rooting ? Doesnt work the tools from M8 ?
Did you use it in Europe already ?
Did you get the normal Google playstore over the GSM-Installer from HTC-Marketplace ?
Did you try the "more local"-app for different languages ?
Did you get updates OTA already ? Buildnumber ! Android 4.4.2 ?
Next week comes here in germany/austria/swiss the HTC ONE M8 Dual SIm. This is an exact copy of the "normal" M8 only with two sims.
Body is in full metal, camera is same as in M8, everything same, but only two sims.
Attention !!! The prize is 5770 RBM (680€) !!! Thats much. Ok , fine that they bring it to europe but prizing is really high.
OK, when i order from etotalk etc prizing is same espically when customs duty has to pay.
Thanks for your answers,
Regards
goes like hell

There is no China Unicom on the back. However, you can see the China Unicom when you power on or power off the device.
No Google Playstore, Google Maps by default. The method of adding them had been mentioned in the 1st post

Dear Mr .....Um.....Mr Hell,
1. I would say the dual sim menu is nothing special. I had done some screen capture related to dual sim menu, you may take a look.
2. There is no option related to dual sim in the pull down menu like the Samsung GS4 dual sim version. When you want to make a call or send out sms, after you press the number or input sms text, you need to choose which sim card you want to use for dial or sms. Screen capture of dial menu and sms menu is attached for you reference.
3. I did not try root this phone yet.
4. I do not have chance to use it in Europe yet. Maybe I have if I can save more money and go travel to Europe
5. Yes, I can get the normal Google Playstore through the GMS Installer
6. Yes, I use apps come with Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, English. No problems are found.
7. It comes with Android 4.4.2. By the way, I received OTA updates today. I update it but I can't find any difference
About the dual sim version of HTC M8, I think wtf it is not just worth that expensive. If you are not that in need of 4G dual sim phone, I suggest you can wait as we can expect more of 4G dual sim phone is coming in the future. But if you really want one right now, E8 is good.
Regards,
Thomas
Hi Thomas,
you can say "goes" to me !
Thanks for you detailed discription and for the pics.
Same with me for the prize of the M8. Thats why i am going on E8. And i think on E8 is more community in the future. I dont have 4G Sim at the moment but it is my favourite to go on Dual-Sim. Right now i have the gt-i9502 (S4) in use. My N9002 (Note3) i sold to a friend.
And now i need a new toy !
By the way before i forgot. Is on HTC something like Knox (on Samsung) ? Knox-trigger to see someone has done flashing Custom-ROM or anything else ?
With the "more local-app" i mean https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.c_lis.ccl.morelocale to set language you want.
Playstore-link from europe !!! Didnt try this app !!! Read ratings !!!). This app can set language you want without root.
When i read right what you write you cant define the default sim that is used always when you dial except you chosse explicit the other one ? See my pics: First one in the menue bar the one which is active is squared around. Second one: When menue is pulled down there a two buttons, one for sim1 as default and the second for second as default. How does HTC manage that ?
Regards

Hi Thomas.
Good post, I am envious that you got the dot case included for that price.
I purchased an E8 in shanghai yesterday and had to pay 3,200 RMB as they have sold out everywhere, and the demand is high.
I obviously want to root my phone so that I can either:
a) install Google apps and remove bloatware (yes I have run the GMS installer app but prefer to have full root control
or
b) flash a European ROM as they become available in the near future.
I haven't as yet seen any Custom Recoveries for this device yet.. I have been watching here: http://bbs.gfan.com/forum-1513-type-10958.html as I expected that they might become available there first. Are you aware of any other sites in China that might have a custom recovery available yet?
thanks thomas for the tips ,I hope the device to come in greece...
Hi,
Additional question to my post #12:
In german forum we have a discussion whether it is really DualSim-Full-active DSFA or Dual-Standby.
Can someone who has that device ensure what kind of Dual-Sim it has ?
Does it have nano or micro sim ?
Thanks a lot !
goes like hell
Dear Thomas,
Why the sample photos are in 4MP? Is not the E8 have 13MP camera?

After an online search, Knox is something like security apps right? HTC does not provide such kinds of apps.
For the "Morelocale 2" you suggest, according to the description of the apps, it will work only if you root the phone or use the development tool to do some modification. I am not plan to root the phone at this moment (maybe later if some good custom roms come out) and the development tool is a little bit difficult for me. I had tried and install the apps, but without root or using development tools, it wont work.
For the dual sim, I had tried my best to explore every corner of the phone, there is no way to set which sim is default. I also attached the homescreen here, Unlike your GS4 dual sim version, the signal of 2 sims show with nothing special.

Dear Kiwiandy,
OMG WTF they sell it that expensive in Shanghai? Is it include the Dot View case, Powerbank, screen protector and the TF Card? I suggest if you wanna get a phone in China, ask you colleague or friend to help you order online. The price should be more reasonable.
I am also waiting for a custom rom so that the blinkfeed can support facebook, twitter. Support of weibo, wechat not useful to me indeed.

Just conduct a small test. It is a Dual Standby phone only. I use sim 1 to dial out some kinds of service hotline and I use my mother's phone to call my sim 2 no, sim 2 can't connect.
And it use nano sim for both sim slots

When I make the 1st post, I am not allowed to post external link for photo. I just found that I can do so now. Right click for original size. The quality of the photo is much or less the same as the last phone I had, the LG G Pro
