Sprint has made the Jelly Bean update available for the HTC EVO 4G LTE. However, you shouldn’t expect the smartphone to inform you about the new software version — rather you’ll have to manually make the phone check for updates by going to “Settings” -> “System updates” -> “HTC software update” and finally tapping the…
Sony and HTC have quietly made three new phones PlayStation Mobile certified – the HTC One X+, One XL and EVO 4G LTE, which join existing HTC devices supporting PS games including the One X, One S and One V. For some reason HTC doesn’t rave about this capability of its devices despite the fact…
HTC’s Windows Phone 8X is the first device running the latest version of Microsoft’s mobile platform to get an over-the-air (OTA) update. Microsoft introduced this capability in Windows Phone 8, allowing users to get the latest software without connecting their beloved smartphones to the computer (something Android has been doing for quite some time). The…
A month ago we’ve told you about the HTC One SV, a somewhat awkward device since the Taiwanese company has similar products like the One V and One S. Now it’s officially announced for Europe and will start selling from January in select markets, including Germany, Austria, Switzerland, while the UK will get it in…
Expansys UK prepared a dedicated page for the newly announced HTC Butterfly from where you can express your interest (register) for the highly anticipated device. As you know, this is the international version of Verizon’s Droid DNA, boasting such high-end specs as Qualcomm’s quad-core Snapdragon S4 Pro CPU, 2GB of RAM, 5-inch full HD screen,…
HTC Droid DNA (or that’s HTC J Butteryfly) finally got its international counterpart in the form of HTC Butterfly — and we tought it will be called HTC Deluxe (DLX). As you know from our previous posts, this is the best phone HTC has made thus far with its specs including a 5-inch full HD…
Although the HTC Droid DNA has been just recently announced, the Taiwanese company is already looking to launch another device. And I’m not talking about the international version of the DNA called HTC DLX, but a whole new phone which, to be fair, will be pretty similar to the existing one. However, instead of coming…
Almost missed this… HTC has launched its duo of Windows Phone 8 devices before Nokia did that with its Lumia 920T. The HTC 8S and 8X are offered by China Unicom, the country’s second largest mobile carrier, costing 1,999 yuan (about $320) and 3,999 yuan ($640), respectively. The 8X’s price is especially steep but when…
Clove, a smartphone retailer located in the United Kingdom, has the blue HTC 8S in stock and ready to ship. The mid-range Windows Phone 8 device is priced at the affordable cost of £224. At this price customers don’t get the quality of the flagship 8X, but some pretty reasonable specs instead. The HTC 8S carries a 1Ghz dual-core…
HTC has been supporting the hacking and modding communities for quite some time now, releasing source codes for its devices soon after they’ve been launched. Their latest gig is the Droid DNA kernel source code, which will allow developers to more easily make custom ROMs. Not that something’s inherently wrong with HTC’s Sense UI, it’s…
