Features you'll enjoy

The HTC Eye Experience

Take advantage of the 13 megapixel front and back cameras to capture striking

photos and videos. With the new HTC Eye™Experience, enjoy features beyond

conventional camera shooting. Here are some of these features:

In a video call, the camera will track you and the people with you

Face Tracking can detect not just you but also the people around you during a video

call. Your caller will see up to 4 faces that are within your camera’s field of vision. Also,

you can share what you're looking at on your phone screen to the person you're

chatting with. See Video chat on page 92.

Both sides of the story

Use Split Capture mode to record the action in front of you and yourself at the same

time, or record the action first and then record yourself giving a commentary. See

Using Split Capture mode on page 77.

Always be part of the story

Want to put yourself into that great shot of the Eiffel Tower while you're taking the

shot? Crop-Me-In automatically crops you into the picture. Voilà! See Using Crop-Me-

In mode on page 77.

Blend faces with anyone

Face Fusion uses two photos such as your selfie and a photo of your favorite celebrity

to merge your looks together. See Using Face Fusion on page 87.

Look good in an instant

Before taking your selfie, use Live Makeup to smoothen your skin. See Applying skin

touch-ups with Live Makeup on page 75.

Taking selfies just got a whole lot easier

Flash a smile, and the camera instantly captures your smiling face. Or, Just "Say

Cheese"! See Using Auto Selfie on page 75 and Using Voice Selfie on page 75.

Your mobile photo booth

Take 4 selfies and the camera automatically merges them into a single picture. See

Taking selfies with Photo Booth on page 76.
