HTC’s M4 and G2 Androids likely to launch after the M7
Posted by Gsurface

Now that we know the M7 is alive and well, we can look at the other goodies that HTC is going to bring us this year. According to the pretty reliable @evleaks, two more Android phones will be launched at some point after the M7′s pre-MWC debut: a fairly powerful M4 and a low-end G2. The former’s highlights are its 4.3-inch 720p display (same as the 8X’s), a 1.2GHz dual-core Snapdragon chip, a whopping 13-megapixel F2.0 camera (apparently the same as the M7′s) and optional LTE. On the other hand, the G2 will pack a more modest 3.5-inch 480 x 320 screen, a 1GHz processor and a 5-megapixel camera, so it’s very much just a slight upgrade from the Desire C which also runs Ice Cream Sandwich — unlike the beefier M4 with Jelly Bean. The same leakster reckons we won’t be seeing these two devices at MWC, but we’ll keep an eye out just in case.

How would you change HTC’s Titan II?

on October 8, 2012

Let’s imagine you shunned purchasing a Lumia 900 in favor of HTC’s Titan II, the company’s final Windows Phone handset before its colorful reinvention. You were probably drawn to that 16-megapixel camera, but given the tight restrictions imposed by the operating system, there’s little else to separate it from its kin. The question is, what would you have done differently? How Would You Change asks you to share what you’d wanna see, should the company ever build the Titan III.

Cyanogenmod 9 struts its stuff on HTC’s One X

So you’ve procured yourself HTC’s new super slim, 4.7-inch halo phone: the One X. By now, you probably have the device set up just the way you like it: applications configured, widgets in place and Adele ringtone set. But there’s just something else left to do, isn’t there? If (like some of us) you’re a smartphone user who just can’t leave well enough alone, you’ll be excited to learn that a build of Cyanogenmod 9 for the Uno Equis has been made available via the MoDaCo forums. The ROM will deliver that stock Android experience, and all those CM9 accoutrements, to those that don’t fancy the panache of Sense 4.0. The forum post does caution that the One’s camera, and hotspot functionality, aren’t currently working, so interested parties best proceed with caution. If all that doesn’t phase you, grab a cup of coffee, get the Android SDK all warmed up and take this ROM for a spin!

HTC’s unaudited Q1 2012 financials: revenue down by 35 percent
Posted by Gsurface
on April 6, 2012
No comments
HTC’s unaudited financials have just hit the wires and it looks like the negative trends from last year are continuing. For the first quarter of 2012, revenues are down nearly 35 percent year-on-year, with revenues of 67,790 million Taiwanese dollars (around $ 2.3 billion) for the period. Operating income was 5,099 million Taiwanese dollars (roughly $ 173 million) and profits after tax 4,464 million Taiwanese dollars ($ 151 million). The company will hope that the rather middling news will be the last of the nasty hangovers from HTC’s previous scatter-gun approach to phone production. Now that it’s gone with the sleek and slender One series lineup, we’ll see how well the company’s about-turn does in the next two quarters.

HTC’s 2011 Q4: good summer, bad winter
Posted by Gsurface
on February 6, 2012

HTC’s big 2011 was limited to those warm summer months, when everyone wanted a smartphone for the beach. Now the accountants have confirmed HTC’s initial statement: fourth quarter revenues were down 2.49 percent (year on year). It made 101.42 billion Taiwanese dollars (just under $ 3.5 billion) in the last three months of the year, which looks worse than it is because of the blockbuster 135.8 Taiwanese dollar takings in Q3. Overall year on year revenue was up by 67.09 percent, but profits were down 11.88 percent, with the company saying the outlook won’t get any better in the first quarter, but should pick up when it begins the process of shedding a few pounds phones.

How would you change HTC’s Rhyme?

Clearly, it was never going to go down well with feminists, or the general public. HTC’s “ladyphone” was found to sacrifice power and features for, erm, a flashing notification bauble that didn’t even fit on our reviewer’s purse. Its lackluster spec, patronizing marketing and plenty of bloatware meant we couldn’t recommend this phone — but if one wound up in your pocket / hand / handbag, how has life been with it? We want to know how you feel about the unit, does that good camera compensate for its flaws, how does the charm indicator work on a daily basis and most importantly of all, if you were offering suggestions for a revised version, how would you change HTC’s Rhyme? The comments are this way, fill them with words and let’s talk this one over.

HTC’s UK chief wants to ease off the new-product gas, focus on ‘amazing hardware’
Posted by Gsurface
on January 26, 2012

If you ever thought remembering HTC’s titanic product line was like trying to recall the Greek alphabet, then it seems you’re not alone. Phil Roberson, head of the firm’s UK operations apparently thinks the display cabinet is getting a little crowded, too, telling Mobile Magazine “We have to get back to focusing on what made us great – amazing hardware.” No surprises that there’s been a tightening of focus after filing disappointing results just earlier this month. There’s already been the odd whisper of new directions for HTC, and this year’s phone roll-out is already under way, but with Roberson suggesting tablets aren’t high on its list of priorities this year, we’re banking on further details of 2012′s product plans at next month’s MWC.

How would you change HTC’s EVO 3D?

A 3D phone? Who woulda thunk it? HTC would have, and the EVO 3D is the product of its labor. The jury’s still out on whether 3D will end up being more than just some over-marketed, over-sensationalized fad, but judging by the sales of this thing on Sprint’s network, someone is into the concept. We saw it as one of Sprint’s stronger Android offerings, but the lackluster battery life and par-for-the-course display were quirks that we couldn’t quite overlook. For those who bit, what are your main annoyances? Would you change the design at all? Toss in a different panel? Would you tweak anything about the Sense implementation? Is the 3D camera serving you well? Let us know in comments below!

HTC’s unaudited Q3 results keep the revenue train a-rollin’

HTC clearly couldn’t wait for a pesky audit to tell let the world about its continued financial successes. The Taiwanese handset maker posted unaudited consolidated results for the third quarter — and, not surprisingly, things are (continuing) to look good for the company. HTC marked a 79.07-percent growth over this time last year, with NT$ 135,821 million ($ 4.4 billion) total revenue. And according to HTC, the company’s net income post-taxes was NT$ 18,638 million ($ 612 million) for the quarter. We’ll update the results when we get something a bit more official.

Hands-on with HTC’s Amaze 4G for T-Mobile (video)
Posted by Gsurface
on September 27, 2011
No comments
So how does HTC’s Amaze 4G stack up to its European counterpart, the Sensation XE? Pretty well actually. The 4.3-inch qHD smartphone also features Qualcomm’s 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon CPU, but bumps the RAM from 768MB to 1GB. It’s also HTC’s first NFC toting device and joins T-Mobile’s Galaxy S II as the other 42Mbps HSPA+ -capable handset on Little Magenta’s network. More noteworthy is its trick eight megapixel shooter, which features the same backside-illuminated sensor, f2.2 wide-angle optics and 1080p video recording capability as the myTouch 4G Slide. Much of the camera software and functionality carries over from that phone, but new is the ability to take five shots, which the phone automagically combines into one better shot. We also liked the addition of two physical camera buttons, one for stills and the other for video. First impressions of the Sense-laden, Gingerbread smartphone? It’s very much like a Sensation on steroids, with a definite T-Mobile flavor. Take a look at our gallery and hit the break for our hands-on video.

How would you change HTC’s Droid Incredible 2?

It’s borderline crazy to think that we posed this very question about the original Droid Incredible in June of 2010, yet here we are again. Same question, different day, and (mostly) different phone. Verizon Wireless has been pumping out Android devices like it’s its job — and really, it sort of is — and HTC’s DI2 is certainly one of the more polarizing options. Loaded with Sense and plenty of VZW “extras,” we’re anxious to see if the things that bothered us also bothered you. Is the screen size adequate? Are you still better off with Sense than without? Would you change the form factor or software in any way for the inevitable third iteration? Holler in comments below — we’re all ears.

4G variant of HTC’s Radar spotted in the wild, flying a magenta flag
Posted by Gsurface
on September 22, 2011
No comments
The Radar’s arrival in this world was overshadowed by the massive Titan released on the same day. But if a batch of spy shots sent to TmoNews is to be believed, then this mid-specced 3.8-inch Windows Phone could be about to get some much needed 4G pep on T-Mobile’s network. The photos also reveal plenty of magenta branding, Tango video calling and of course Mango running under the hood. Further corroboration probably won’t come til we detect an HSPA+ Radar at the FCC, but with some decent 6/7Mbps real-world download speeds and hopefully some mobile hotspot action this could well be a device worth having.
