lol. yeah. the name is stupid too. it is like samsung launching Galaxy s after galaxy s iii. with this they are effectively killing their One series which i thought was going to be their thing for a while now. it's getting absurd really. Nokia could be launching lumia 1000 in the near future. Sony already has xperia z announced. and htc is dumping one series with HTC One.actually. it is like samsung launching a phone named Samsung Galaxy.
lol. it launched too close to s3. few people bought it like me of course. manu also has it i think. but most people went with s3. and htc did not amuse these buyers when they launched one x+ just a few months after one x. with samsung at least you know that s4 would be their premium offering for around a year. only note3 would have better specification. i mean htc could launch htc one+ 3-4 months from now and your one x would be outdated rather quickly?
I thought It was a hit.my bad. Saw a couple of guys with it..loved the premium finish. Thought of getting one myself. I was sorta surprised when they launched One X+ suddenly with minimum hype.
well that's the thing. samsung has realized the need to have flagship devices that remain top of the line for at least 10-12 months. htc has not. even Sony keeps on making the same mistake again and again. LG? god forbid they want to fix their shite.
Gone by the wayside are those pure polycarbonate hulls -- HTC's Sense 5-laden Android Jelly Bean (4.1.2) handset comes crafted with an all-around premium look and feel, housing its 4.7-inch 1080p Super LCD 3 display (boasting 468 dpi and protected by Gorilla Glass 2) in a machined aluminum unibody. And, in a bid for the top spot on the mobile totem pole, the One also bears the distinction of being (one of) the first smartphones to feature Qualcomm's quad-core Snapdragon 600, clocked here at 1.7GHz and paired with 2GB RAM.
Tackling the "myth of the megapixel," HTC's outfitted the One with a 4-megapixel BSI sensor and f/2.0 lens, such that each pixel is meant to gather 300 percent more light than the current crop of smartphone sensors. The camera unit also features optical image stabilization and HTC's ImageChip 2 for HDR, 1080p and 60fps video. But that's not the end of HTC's imaging focus. It's also introducing a new feature / service dubbed Zoe, which allows users to capture and share short videos, much like Vine, via HTC's dedicated site.
