HTC has discounted its RE Camera to just $50 — but one for today. You'll be able to bag yourself the portable shooter at a quarter of the original listing price, making the accessory a viable option when compared against the GoPro and other cameras.
The HTC RE is a 16-megapixel handheld camera that can connect to your smartphone to act as a view finder. In addition to the usual still photos, it can also handle video, time-lapse, and slow motion.
We're currently aware of this deal being valid for the U.S. only. Oh, and be sure to check through our RE Camera review before making the purchase.

HTC slashes price of the RE Camera to just $50
So, did anyone else just get a big fat order cancellation email?
Yes, and didn't even THINK to look at the website. They could have at least given the reason rather than letting us think we accidentally cancelled it ourselves! Now I see it's sold out and may have been when placing the order except it didn't say Out of Stock while doing it. Was I THAT close to the end of them?
Response from HTC;
Hello Shane, thank you for contacting HTC,
At this moment we are gathering information on why this is happening to some of the orders. However, we are escalating this issue since there are multiple situations like this one.
We're sorry for the inconviniences that this may cause, but we'll make sure to resolve it as soon as possible.
Have a great weekend,
I just took mine on a cruise...this thing didn't let me down for the $130 I paid for it. I hope this isn't a fire sale
Taking only my G4 and my Re-camera into the Parks.
damn US only
83 Euro incl. shipping via borderlinx. Thats less than half the normal european price.
It's back to its original price and sold out.

I managed to get a blue and a white a few hours ago. Finally got a hold of my sister in Jersey but when she tried to buy they're showing in stock but at $199. Oh well, I guess I'll have to gift her the white one.
ahahahah HTC had like 10 for sale. At least if they show out of stock but price still 50$, you could go to Best Buy and price mach.
out of stock ?? are you kidding us, HTC ??

Just have to wait for the best buy sale now.

Just wondering if it would be a good dash cam for the truck

It has a standard screw-type camera mount at the bottom, you couls probably mount it. Wide angle lens and HD. Probably work well.
Yes. I have a small tripod for mine and tested it out on my dash of my Ford and it worked very well. I may order a second one and a suction cup mount and keep it in there permanently.
The suction mount works well, and if you mount it upside-down near the top of the windshield, you can have it flip the movie.

So, they slash the price of their camera to $50 while announcing that the A9's US price of $399 was only an introductory price and that it's real value is $499........
I'm in. At $50, this will be good for quick video while mountain biking, so I don't have to pull the phone out.
I got a blue one!

It was worth it at $100, and I was waiting for it to drop so I could get another. Guess I'll get two now, lol. I read that particular review for the first time, and either the review unit was defective or the reviewer has jittery hands. I used it as a stealth camera in a poorly lit building, and had no problems with grainy shots, and blurry shots were very rare. My son is a professional photographer and wants one after borrowing mine out of curiosity for a wedding.

That is a bummer.
So are they getting ready for the next model?

Good to see that they have started pricing their devices with more SENSE than DESIRE...

This could truly be the ONE thing that will save HTC.
From my Oneplus One via the new and awesome Material AC App
Honestly not even worth $50. Everything in the review is spot on.

AC loves this thing, still not sure why.

Had to reread the title. Thought they upped the price like the A9 lol. I had just gotten up, I'm awake now.
