HTC just released a nice Lil $600 phone with a headphone jack and a microSD card slot. Think I'd rather have that.
Didn't google buy HTC?
I feel like I remember Google buying them for the IP. I didn't know the company existed as a separate entity. I'll take it as a good thing. I had a couple of HTC phones back in the day.
Nope. It's still it's own Taiwanese company.
Gotcha.
Upon looking into it further it seems they just bought the design department. That's crazy.
I used to love HTC phones, and was a loyal customer. Glad they're trying to make a comeback.
Me too. Their needs to be more competition in the US market. I blame the three phone carriers laft. Their phone contracts only offer the most off to Samsung and Apple. In sure Samsung and Apple pay to have it that way, of course.
