What's new
The HTC Eye Experience
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
162.
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 124.
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 142.
16 What's new

Look good in an instant
Before taking your selfie, use Live Makeup to smoothen your skin. See

page 122.
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 123.
