Best Buy is reportedly planning to slash the price of HTC’s 7-inch tablet on October 6th,…
Video: HTC tinkered with Android to try and differentiate themselves, made it laughingly insecure
It’s been discovered that recent HTC devices such as the EVO 3D, EVO 4G, Thunderbolt, and others, have a massive security bug that enables applications to read pretty much every piece of sensitive information on your device. HTC, in an effort to gather statistics on how people use their devices, installed a data logging application…
HTC Sensation Z710t is the first smartphone to ship with ST-Ericsson’s NovaThor chip
There’s a reason why every single device HTC has ever shipped has a Qualcomm chip inside; Qualcomm owns a small stake in HTC. With that in mind, the news that the HTC Sensation Z710t will pack an ST-Ericsson chip inside comes as a shock to those of us who obsess over these sort of details.…
Virgin Mobile to offer LG Optimus Slider and HTC Wildfire S
Virgin Mobile is introducing two new Android phones to its portfolio and we’re not sure if customers should start getting excited or not. The LG Optimus Slider and the HTC Wildfire S both sit snugly in the mid-range spectrum but also both sit in your standard pricing of a high-end smartphone for any other carrier…
Is this HTC Rhyme ad brilliant or awful?
I know that I’m probably not the target demographic for the HTC Rhyme on Verizon so I’m going to throw it to the wisdom of the crowds in determining if this ad is awful, great, creepy or a mix of the three. In the ad, a multi-armed lady uses the device for various parts of…
HTC Explorer is a low-end Android smartphone with 3.2-inch HVGA display, 600MHz CPU and 3MP camera
HTC unveiled another Android device, this time tailored toward the first-time smartphone buyers. As such, the HTC Explorer (which BTW we’ve already seen before) is an entry-level device with a 3.2-inch HVGA capacitive touchscreen, 3-megapixel camera, while 600MHz CPU should be good enough to handle all processing needs (or so we hope). Needless to say,…

Nexus One gets Android 2.3.6 update
Google and HTC have started rolling out the Android 2.3.6 update for the original Google phone – Nexus One. The main bug this release addresses is the random start of the Voice Search application, something many users have complained about. In addition, I guess there are also some other under the hood improvements that should…
HTC Radar 4G visits FCC on its way to T-Mobile
HTC Radar 4G, which we see as a mass market Windows Phone 7.5 Mango device, is at the FCC where the government-paid engineers are testing its radiation levels, making sure it’s safe to be used by the general public. Once that process is completed, HTC’s baby will be heading to T-Mobile USA, which we think…
