In the world of phones, most go through many names before they hit retail stores and that’s exactly what we’re seeing with the HTC Endeavor and Ville. Both of these phones, no matter what they will end up being named, are something to get excited for. That said, a solid name always helps.
The Endeavor’s name may have been switched around and could launch as the HTC One X, which does have a nice ring to it. We’re also hearing that the HTC Ville may also be dubbed the One S. This naming scheme seems to be a bit of a departure from previous HTC handset names, as most previous names had a tendency to have an elegant styling (with the exception of its Droid handsets). The One X and S evoke a feeling of power, which would make both the Endeavor and Ville aptly named.
The new names remind us of HTC’s Sensation line, which also had letters following the name like XE and XL. Seems like the company is sticking to this sort of naming system and we’re ok with that.
Expected to land at MWC this year, both the Ville and Endeavor should be quite the hit for the handset maker. The decision to scale back the number of handsets released per year in order to focus on quality over quantity was a good choice for HTC, and even though we have yet to get our hands on either of these devices, they both look as solid as can be.
We’ll soon be able to see exactly what HTC will be calling the phones in due time but for now we can only ponder.
Do you like the One X and One S names or would you rather the internal code names instead? Moreover, if a phone has everything you want in a handset, do you care much about what it’s called?
