So sad to see HTC going downhill. I was a big fan of HTC HD2.
I hope they come back.
The problem with their phone is too trivial.
No outstanding feature compare to other phones.
HTC still thinks its in the Blackberry Era..
Pricing always above like $600+ & they thought they were the best..
I think its over for them as a solo company..
the only hope is if google does buy the Rest of HTC for Pixel lineup..
