The HTC Re is a small, simple point-and-shoot video camera that's ready to shoot when you pick it up. It's waterproof to 1 meter without a housing, and its built-in wireless and the Re app let you see what you're shooting as well as view and download what
There is noticeable shutter lag. Its video and photo quality aren't significantly better than a smartphone and audio quality is poor. Its battery isn't user replaceable or removable. Its shape is great for holding, but the body is a bit slippery
The HTC Re's features might not be as unusual as its design, but it's still a solid little camera that's easier and faster to shoot with than your average smartphone....

Abstract: So HTC thinks it can make a camera, eh? We'll see about that. We were in New York last week with one of the very first Re camera units from HTC, and we decided to put it through its paces around the City That Never Sleeps.HTC's philosophy is that we're al...

Abstract: Point-and-shoot cameras teeter on the edge of extinction, rendered obsolete by our smartphones. But shooting with iPhones or juggling our Android handsets aren't always the best or most comfortable; just the most convenient. What's the solution? HTC think...
The HTC Re is a device I want to like. I want to laud innovation, and this little camera is certainly that. But can HTC start a new product category? It's too expensive - I get that it needs to be to reach the premium performance level, but it's not even...
Handling, Compactness, White balance management, WiFi, Smoothrunning app
No screen display, No lens or mechanical stabilisation, Only captures video in Full HD with 30 fps, Images lack sharpness, Poor sound reproduction
The HTC Re achieves its aims, but its lack of technical features (no 4K, Full HD 60 fps, or integrated screen) prevents it from competing with the rest, such as the Kodak PixPro SP1, for example. That said, the camera's primary selling points are its comp...

Abstract: Like MP3 players, digital cameras have been all but obliterated by smartphones which assimilated their features into a single monolithic slab. It's no bad thing: our pockets are less cluttered, our lives simpler because we only have to charge one devic...
Funky but thoughtful design, Wide-angle lens, Instantly ready to use, Shoots decent photos
Additional features, settings buried in app, Video quality could be better, Short battery life, Overpriced
Despite our initial qualms, the Re turned out to be fun to use, and if you don't expect too much out of it (like moviemaking chops), it does the job. Photo quality is good, and video is OK, but it stands out from the crowd with its unique and effective d...
