HTC One E8: A more affordable M8

  While reading HTC One M8 reviews, I stumbled upon another unit from the same manufacturer, HTC One E8.
  
  This is a "more affordable" version of the M8.
  
  Specifications:
  - LTE Capable
  - Dual SIM
  - 5" Super LCD3 with 441ppi
  - HTC Sense 6
  - Boom Speakers
  - Expandable Storage up to 128GB microSD
  - 2GB RAM
  - Internal 16GB
  - Rear Camera: 13MP
  - Front Camera: 5PM
  - Will be released with KitKat
  - Uses Snapdragon 801 (Qualcomm MSM8975AC)
  - Quad-core 2.5 GHz Krait 400
  - GPU: Adreno 330
  - Battery: 2600mAH
  
  The most noticable difference between the E8 and the M8 is that, the former is made out of plastic whereas the latter is made out of metal.
  
  Given the reason why they made this - to offer a cheaper flagship, then this unit may be a winner.
  
  The only question now is, when will this be available in the Philippines? Or will it be? I like this unit because it's dual SIM so I can merge my work and personal numbers. It's kind of tiring to carry 2 phones everyday.

  Lazada is now offering this phone, around 20k. may iba pa kayang option para bilin Ito?

  Oo nga noh. I just saw it now that you mentioned it. Isn't it a bit steep considering that the M8 retails now sa grey market ng around 25~27k?
  
  Wala pa ako makita sa ibang online stores. I like this phone.
