They won’t make it, they shot themselves in the foot too many times and are making the same mistakes again. I love my EVO LTE on CM10.1, and loved the EVO 3D before that. But if this ugly, over-bloated, over-rated phone is all they have to show for, then I am moving to the Xperia or Nexus lines for my upgrade

  If you think this phone is ugly get your eyes checked because you are blind. And a idiot.

    phone’s features are sexy. I love those stereo speakers, and vivid s-lcd3 display.
    
    but phone design is ugly. ugly as hell. I prefer One X design over this One.
    if you can’t see the ugliness in there I think you got eye cancer. :)
    
    oh, and one more thing,
    please learn to not resort to insult when other has different taste/ opinion than yours..
    
    cheers.

      In your opinion the design is ugly.
      
      In my opinion the design is very nice.
      
      Opinions, yeah?
    - Jason Deveau
      
      I really like the design and hardware. But again they let me down with no removable storage. Is it really so hard to pop a MicroSD slot on there? Even under the battery and I’d settle for it.

      I agree! The HTC One X is the best designed device by HTC thus far. It has sexy curves, and beautiful arches. unlike the current crop of devices (iPhone 4, LG Optimus G Pro, Samsung, Black Berry Z10, HTC One) which seems to lookalike. These current 5 are all iPhoney-lookalike – straight top, straight flat looks with little imagination.
      
      I will not touch these 5 devices with a 10 foot pole. So ugly!!

        i think you’ve got it wrong.which part of an s3 or note 2 looks like an iphone?

And yet they named the same phone the droid dna and htc butterfly. They are trying, they are just being dumb. RIM is the company that rested on its laurels.

i have to say you’re probably one of the few who were ‘impressed’ by htc one,i think its a decent but nothing special phone that will do anything to help htc.

  You are stupid.
  - oliolio
    
    you are what they call a fanboy,ALMOST AS BAD AS APPLE FANBOYS,i’ve seen all your comments clearly you are a HTC fanboy.i think im clearly entitled to my own opinions as much as you?i say this phone has great build quality,but what nice design when front it looks like a blockberry z10/i5 copycat with the placement of logo same as the z10 and design,and the back it looks like the sony xperia z?no removable battery,external memory,

Hopefully not!

I think HTC have done really poorly in marketing point of view: ineffective advertisements, stupid naming conventions that just confuses everyone, lack of public image/presence.

They used to make descent phones, but their new upcoming phones lacks distinctions and look very VERY stale. Look at Samsung, LG, and Apple, they produce ads about the new features, new components, etc. HTC’s One is hardly anything new, 1080P screen is already a market norm, SoC and other IC components are same old stuffs, Sense UI was cool back in the 08 and 10 but stale atm, 13M camera…seriously?

All these stuffs coupled with a lackluster battery life is going to be a disaster. They should design a new flagship to compete with others or go for a heavily featured phone that aim’s at narrower target consumers.

I don’t think people forgot about HTC, I didn’t, I remembered the shitty build quality, and refusal to repair known issues under warranty when I bought my next phone, from Samsung.

they should increase the support for old devices!

I had been considering ordering a htc evo for a while. I read loads of reviews and this one was very helpful http://search4reviews.net/ , I got my delivery last month and am very happy. I Would highly recommend to anyone still unsure,
Note II

I would love to own another HTC device… BUT im sure after a few months releasing the HTC ONE their gonna release an enhance version of it like what they did with the HTC Sensation and the HTC One X.. They make a smartphones like disposable and as a consumer they prove that they’re not a good choice of investment.
Ivan Budiutama

HTC One, their last hope. So far is not impressive. at least on the field they consider as their powerful feature.
In sound department, I never really fond on Beats Audio. I prefer a more balance output like Sony did. The Beats Audio is too high on the bass to my taste.
In Camera, well how do I start, the leaked captured pictures so far are very sub par. I can’t even tell the differences between my Galaxy Nexus and HTC One. Hopefully this one still not fully optimized and the current build still not grasping the whole function.
So HTC One needs to be very careful of what they will do next. Optimizing everything is very important.

I own galaxy s3, note 2 and Droid dna. No complaints here but HTC is way better quality. When you hold the device you can just feel it and that’s it. All of them are good, but when I take pictures I use DNA. They all sound great with my monster miles Davis ear buds, but DNA sounds better with beats and that’s it. I will always look for HTC first before Samsung, if Sony has 4G let in the states, I would look for new Sony but I’m waiting…

I hope HTC can pull it out. I love the way their devices feel in the hand. Sadly sense seems like a superfluous addition to android, much like touchwiz but more so. I hope by the end of this year they release another flagship, I’d very much like to try an HTC phone.
Mark

In my opinion HTC dropped the ball when it didn’t develop the Evo. The Evo 3D was gimmicky at best andto bulky to be considered “next gen”. It was their flagship device but it didn’t evolve fast enough. They moved to slow and lost their place as #1.

HTC is a great hardware company but it’s terrible in terms of software i.e sense software on HTC devices even though its jelly bean A.K.A jelly bean it sucks. It is full of lags and immature software plus they have no proper developer support or aren’t that open in terms of letting people install custom roms instead of their shitty sense ui. Samsung lets people install custom roms, look at cyanogenmod almost all of samsung devices are supported and it increases the life of the device. HTC you better make windows phone and R.I.P

I think they have a shot. I currently have a ONE X. Love it. complaints: lack of memory, when you release a 16 Gig phone, it only has 9 gigs. They seem to have solved that. Great. However Sense, is umm, dated. The real problem, their support of devices on the market. My One X – I havent had 9 months,the ENTIRE 9 months, I have been told I will be getting Jellybean. Hasnt happened. No estimate on when. Really HTC? Case in point, this shiny new device, already an update version behind. WOW! I hope they can make it, but they need to fix the holes before the ship sinks. I will be waiting to see what the new Galaxy 4 has to offer before I upgrade.

sealing shut the battery and no memory slot
when the one-x was launched it had a sealed battery of a smaller capacity than the s3.

and then the board of director must be whining in the meeting about loosing sales to samsung
Jason Deveau

Shame really, they have superior hard ware to Samsung. But always manage to mess it up. IE, No MicroSD, despite everyone begging for it.

And they keep on making mistakes with that HTC One. Bad design, still no 3g. I don’t understand HTC. Just put the Butterfly on the european market and get rid of that HTC One. It definitely is an ugly phone, i agree on that. I’m switching to Sony Xperia Z now. HTC lost another customer. Agree with Adam. Nexus or Xperia Z. for me it’s gonna be Xperia Z. Nexus don’t have 4g and sd slot and i like the bigger screen on the xperia z
