Verizon HTC One M8 getting a power boost, updated Android OS come September
Verizon's HTC One M8 will be in for a treat come September as HTC executives have announced on Twitter that the handset will get some notable software updates. In particular, the flagship aluminum-clad phone will get a software boost to Android 4.4.3 as well as the Extreme Power Saving Mode to extend the standby time of the phone by turning off non-critical radios when not needed.
HTC Americas president Jason MacKenzie confirmed that the update will be happening "by mid-Sept." on his Twitter.
Additionally, Mo Versi from HTC also commented, saying, "...we're working on it and had to re-spin SW. It's target is early Sept. Thanks for your patience on this. It will include EPS."
