Abstract: Although smartphone cameras have pretty much taken the place of separate digital cameras (at least, for casual photographers), tech companies are still trying to come up with interesting ways for consumers to use photography. One method that is popping up...
No 60-fps vide, Slow shutter causes blurry photo, Expensive for features
A curious combination of a smartphone camera and a GoPro, the HTC RE takes pictures and movies without interfering with the moment. Is it a periscope? A glue stick? Some kind of sci-fi asthma inhaler? Nope. It's HTC's mild-mannered lifestyle ca...
For HTC's first big foray out of their touchscreen-driven comfort zone, the HTC Re is a decent effort. It's quirky, looks fun, and is honestly kind of fun to use. It's comfortable to hold, easy to control, and the companion apps significantly boost its ca...
Compact and portable, Excellent image quality, Long lasting battery, Ease of use
Poor low light performance, Sub par video quality, High price point
8.0 The RE is another attempt from HTC to branch outside of the smartphone market by changing the way we take photos and videos. The product itself is great, but for the price, they're going to have to convince consumers that it's worth every penny....
Fun to use, inspires creativity, Small, lightweight form factor, Great for using one-handed, Waterproof, Can use it without your phone around
Camera quality is okay, but not better than most flagships, A little pricey, No HDR, flash, viewfinder or manual controls, iOS app offers subpar user experience, So-so battery life, Wide-angle shots can look odd
The RE is a fun personal camera that's easy to use for travel, concerts, the beach and other events. But its camera is merely average for $200, and you'll be forced to choose between the convenience of the RE and the image quality of your current smartph...
Snapping pictures with it is extremely quick and a lot of fun, You can get some fun new perspective to your shots (overhead, and downtotheground), Comfortable grip, Very inconspicuous (shutter sound can be controlled)
Image quality in lowlight is subpar, Video recording quality lacks sharpness, Forget about using it in lowlight or for sports (shutter speeds too slow by default, no way to manually adjust them), Battery does not last long, Audio recording quality is not
The HTC Re Camera is a strange little shooter that has a fun and appealing style. However, it also has a steep price tag of $200, nearly double the price of rival action cams like the Polaroid Cube ($100), and the GoPro Hero ($130).insertAdIframe('ad_546b...

The Re camera is a cool concept that needs more development. Its grip sensor is ingenious. And the way the camera interfaces with your phone so you can see all your photos instantly is excellent. But most people will have a hard time adjusting to takin...

Should you buy the Re? If you're not satisfied with the abilities of the Polaroid Cube, then yes. They essentially do the same thing, right this moment. There's no app for the Cube - it's all self-contained - but they're both made to be relatively low-cos...
The cute and compact HTC Re camera has a noble goal in putting us 'back in the moment' while taking pictures, but its buggy software and unremarkable image quality don't justify the convenience...
