The high-end smartphone was expected to do battle with Samsung’s rumored Galaxy S5 ime the G3, but according to (in)famous leaker @evleaks, development of the M8 ime may have been suspended indefinitely.

ile this is just a rumor, the HTC One (M8) ime itself essentially was, too. And most of what we knew about the M8 ime came from @evleaks, too. th nothing else to go on, it seems as though the ime is dead in the water.
Even if the M8 ime is dead, most of what would have made it special may live on in another smartphone. HTC could throw the specs of the ime into the upcoming One Max, which is more than likely going to be announced in the coming months.
The HTC One (M8) is still one of the best smartphones available today, besting every other Android smartphone in build quality by miles. Even if we don’t get to see a M8 ime, the company’s existing portfolio is still top notch isn’t to be dismissed.
