HTC Butterfly S: So close, yet so far (away)

, Jun 19th 2013 Discuss [8]

HTC’s original J Butterfly was a phone of firsts for the company, most notably the 1080p display. It may not have been the only phone to feature Full HD resolution, but it pushed HTC back into the limelight and helped us forget devices like the Sensation XL, which got the big-display part right but then dropped the ball in terms of resolution. Of course, with limited Butterfly availability outside of Asia, we had to wait several months until the HTC One to get our fix of 1080p HTC. Now, just as One supplies are finally catching up, the Butterfly S comes along to show us that yes, HTC can fit it all into a single device, it just probably won’t sell it to you.

HTC Desire 200 official with palm-sized Android

, Jun 18th 2013 Discuss [3]

The HTC Desire 200 has been officially revealed, the company's newest handset and one that brings Android in a form-factor a little larger than a credit card. Fronted by a 3.5-inch HVGA touchscreen, and running Android on a 1GHz Snapdragon S1 processor, the Desire 200 obviously isn't going to break any speed records or, for that matter, give those wanting the HTC One pause for thought.

Kazam startup launched by former HTC executives to offer “robust” smartphones

There are some industries where getting a handful of marketshare is an uphill battle, with the world of smartphones being one such example.

HTC Desire 200 leaks as budget HTC One mini

, Jun 17th 2013 Discuss [1]

The tiniest of HTC smartphones from this HTC One generation appears to have leaked today with the name "HTC Desire 200" attached to it. While this little amalgamation of metal, plastic, and glass might look like a palm-sized HTC One, it's only a shadow of its larger hero cousin. Instead, this machine will aim for the ultra-budget crowd, bringing with it a low-resolution display and a slightly older version of Android and Sense than the common 2013 smartphone.

HTC M4 enters Bluetooth certification process: HTC One mini incoming

, Jun 7th 2013 Discuss [1]

When the Verizon HTC One hit the same process we're seeing a new HTC One Mini (aka HTC M4) entering today with the Bluetooth Special Interest Group, it was unveiled by the carrier later that day. Today, on the other hand, it's a bit more likely that this machine will remain under cover. The HTC M4 has been rumored to be in the mix for a late summer 2013 release for some time - in some cases, appearing as an HTC One Mini before the HTC One was revealed on its own!

HTC M4 vs HTC One: wait for Verizon, or wait even longer?

, Jun 5th 2013 Discuss [2]

As the HTC One is confirmed for Verizon here in the United States, so too has an “HTC One Mini” been all but confirmed by a set of leaked up-close photos. These photos are either the work of a hardware tester or an extremely dedicated mock-up artist – as we’re inclined to believe the former, it’s become apparent that a new choice must be made for those waiting for their favorite amalgamation of HTC and Android. Should you pick up an HTC One now, or does it make more sense to wait for the ever-so-slightly smaller HTC M4?

HTC CEO: Exec changes and “narrowed” focus are right for us

HTC CEO Peter Chou has insisted that the company is still on a solid track, despite the recent spate of high-profile exits from its leadership team. "Actions to streamline our business resulted in some reorganization and executive departures," Chou conceded in a statement given to SlashGear this morning, "but initial sales of the One have validated our approach." The comment follows some upturn in sales, though HTC is not out of the danger zone yet. Read The Full Story

HTC shuffles as COO jumps: Quality teams formed as revenues climb

HTC has lost another high-level exec, this time the company's Chief Operating Officer Matthew Costello, stepping back to work as an "executive advisor" while HTC reshuffles to form a new quality assurance team, among others.
