The HTC RE Camera launched last year, the device was available for $199 and now HTC has dropped the price of the device to $50.
There have been rumors that there is a new RE camera from HTC on the way, so the price drop may be before the launch of a new model, or it could be because HTC wants to clear out its inventory of the device, it is not clear how many units of the device HTC sold.
Features and Specifications
The camera has a 16 megapixel sensor and the device features a wide angle lens, it is designed to be waterproof and it comes with a microSD card slot. The wide-angle lens allows users to capture more of the scene in each shot, making it ideal for outdoor adventures and group photos. The waterproof design means that the camera can be used in various weather conditions and even underwater, making it a versatile choice for travelers and outdoor enthusiasts.
In addition to its robust design, the HTC RE Camera also offers a range of connectivity options. It can be paired with a smartphone via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, allowing users to easily transfer photos and videos. The camera also supports live streaming, which can be a great feature for those who want to share their experiences in real-time on social media platforms.
Market Position and Competitors
The HTC RE Camera was initially positioned as a competitor to other action cameras like the GoPro. However, its unique design and features set it apart. Unlike traditional action cameras, the HTC RE Camera has a cylindrical shape, making it easier to hold and operate with one hand. This design choice was aimed at making the camera more user-friendly and accessible to a broader audience.
Despite its innovative design, the HTC RE Camera faced stiff competition from established brands like GoPro, which offered more advanced features and a wider range of accessories. This may have contributed to the decision to significantly reduce the price of the HTC RE Camera.
