HTC may never pay Apple, says Android will flourish

Apple, with its newfound vigor fresh from the Samsung and HTC double whammy, should take note of the latest headlines from HTC. Simply put, the Taiwanese giant is flipping Apple the louie and saying it does not intend to settle.

HTC chairwoman, Cher Wang, had this to say at a recent press conference:

“HTC has great skills in innovation and has the confidence to face legal lawsuits with Apple. Samsung’s loss does not mean the failure of the entire Google Android ecosystem. Market conditions will stabilize but Taiwan needs to increase efforts and we believe the future will get better.”

Pretty confident words to a company that just mopped the floor with you, HTC. Aren’t you folks supposed to be quietly brilliant? Let’s all wait and see if the 3 new models being released in Q3 have any solid backup to HTC’s defiant position. On tap are the variants of the award winning HTC One X: One X+, One XE, and One XL, the One X+ being a 5″ touchscreen phone with support for 4G LTE. Also, just between you and me, I heard a rumor there may be an HTC tablet in the works. Interested?

Is HTC a sinking ship? Resignations, poor sales, and absent leadership suggest so

It has been difficult to know exactly what to make of HTC recently. The company has been touting success with the One, and is turning decent profits after months of underperforming, but today we learned…

Ive noticed that HTC keeps secrets better and better. Like Apple had in the past

HTC should have been Samsung. The HTC Desire (and its cousin the Nexus One) was the first really valid iphone competitor. In fact, it was the first phone that surpassed the iphone in specs and usability. They had a head start on everyone including Samsung. They’ve completely lacked vision since then and meandered to this point. I mean who’s idea was Beats? Every manufacturer was making bigger and higher res displays because mobile devices are all about the *visual* experience and HTC regress back to offering cheap earphones and a mediocre equalizer. Fortunately they still have the most solidly built devices, but I don’t know if that’s enough anymore.

I hope they can work it out. I really like my One x and would love to upgrade to the One but need to know that they are going to be around to support it. There should be an annoucement about the One for Verizon later today and that can help but it seems that they need a big internal revamp to really turn things around.

It never floated so how can it sink? LoL. I’m not buying a phone with non-removable battery, and if I was to go for a good build quality phone, I have chosen an iPhone. NOT HTC!!!
