The Taiwanese company HTC did not wait after the presentation of its new HTC Desire Eye. In this presentation he assured that he would update his flagship, the HTC One M8, with all the new camera features that the HTC Desire Eye incorporates as standard under the name " EYE Experience ". But HTC, in addition to having started sending this novelty a few hours ago to the owners of the HTC One M8, has also begun to distribute the Android 4.4.4 KitKat update, the most recent version of the Android operating system, in the same file.
The update has begun to be distributed in all European countries under a file that responds to the name of 3.28.401.6. The Android 4.4.4 KitKat update does not mean big changes for HTC One M8 users (beyond some bug fixes and certain security improvements), and what is really interesting about this new file lies in the news from EYE Experience. EYE Experience is a package that contains new options for the HTC One M8 camera, and among these options we have, for example, the option of “ Face Tracking“, Which allows you to configure the phone's front camera to permanently focus up to a total of four different faces, thus allowing you to take photos and videos without the user having to worry about focus.
The file that contains these news occupies a space of approximately 252 MegaBytes, so it is recommended to download using only WiFi connectivity. The update is being distributed via OTA, which means that any user of the HTC One M8 can download this new file directly from their smartphone. To do this you simply have to enter the Settings application, enter the " About device " section and click on the option "System updates.". Even so, the most common is that this type of updates are notified through the notification bar by means of a message with the title of "System update available ", so we can also wait for our terminal to notify us of the availability of the update.
On the other hand, HTC confirmed at the HTC Desire Eye presentation event that the EYE Experience camera news will also reach these other smartphones: HTC One (presented at the beginning of 2013), HTC One mini, HTC One mini 2, HTC One Max, HTC Desire 816, HTC Desire 820, and HTC Butterfly 2. HTC has only reported that updates to these smartphones will begin shipping in the coming months, so it is to be expected that before the end of this year 2014 the seven mobiles on this list will have received the camera news of the HTC Desire Eye, a curious mobile that is presented on the market with a 13 megapixel front camera with autofocus and dual LED flash.
