HTC has the right idea with the Re. They see the need for a small and affordable action camera and they are trying to fill the void. Although the Re cam was way overpriced (to me at least) when it came out, at the current prices now, it's not such a b...

Abstract: High-end smartphones sure can snap a pretty picture these days. This fact alone means it won't be easy for HTC to win over mobile photographers with its pocket-size RE camera. Billed as an easy-to-grip device that shoots photos and video with a new level ...
Again I wasn't expecting it to be blown away by the Re but throughout my time w/ it, it did change my mind. I did manage to get some pretty good photos + videos on it. But like many 1st-gen devices, there are missteps and there are bugs. Its not beatin...
The HTC Re camera is extremely cute and friendly. Its design is “human” and that makes it very agreeable to hold and to use in your hand – which is not the case with pretty much all other “action cams”. After spending some time with it, I wouldn't even co...
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...
