What do you guys think?
I think it could very well be the end HTC as a major player in the smartphone business if they dont market it right. It lacks a removable battery and expandable storage, something its competitors offer on their high end phones. It has some nice features but if it gets terrible battery life or doesnt perform well against the competition due to Sense 5 I do believe HTC is in trouble. Will have to wait until some reviews start coming in and I get to play with one first hand.
I don't care!! My next device is gonna be a Samsung no matter what! I'm sick of HTC and all their crap.
Still love my amaze regardless. It was the final device HTC made with everything the people wanted.

I'm still trying to figure out. Is the phone gesture based or is there capacitive buttons? I've seen 2 crappy videos that it looks like it's both.

The sad thing is all they had to do was listen to what consumers wanted. Release a phone with at least a 3000mah battery especially if its non-removable. 16Gb, 32Gb, and 64Gb versions WITH SD card slot. Make HTC Sense optional as in a skin overlay or theme that can be turned off with just AOSP Android running underneath so updates can come quick.

Reasons why this phone is bound to fail:
Crappy button layout

No latest version of Android
I can live with no SD card, thank God for them making 32gb standard, and non removable battery too... IF IT WAS BIGGER!

We appreciate your enthusiasm for the possibilities of developing software for HTC devices. HTC is committed to assisting customers in unlocking bootloaders for HTC devices. However, certain models may not be unlockable due to operator restrictions. For right now, HTC One is not unlockable; nevertheless, we continue to work with our partners on this, check back often for ongoing updates about unlockable devices

Well, to some extent HTC is following apple... cast aluminum designs without changable battery or SD slot? Sounds like the successful Apple product to me. I don't own one, and never will, but much of the software games that HTC plays do not seem much different than Samsung, just a different flavor of sour. So all Android compatible manufacturers being roughly evil in my estimation on that playing field, I'll take the phone with the hardware that lasts and doesn't feel like cheap plastic junk in my hand.

Will you still be developing for the Amaze?
I got my new device, SGN1, and love it. I have noticed the the Amaze camera is better even though the SGN1 has higher resolution. I'll still be using it just not as often.
Not that impressed with the galaxy nexus 4. It's a great value proposition but early reviews are not the greatest. The more cores you have the more battery problems you have. The LG camera is mediocre and I am not sure of the build quality. 16gb is still a joke IMO. Give me a 32gb option at least.
Staying with the Amaze because of the camera, camera button, removable battery, storage options. I am not upgrading to a phone with less features no matter what. I think HTC will come out with something decent next spring for T-mobile. Something like AT&T's One X+ but with a dual core Krait instead. I'd rather have S4 than Tegra at this point; better battery life.

It's not similar. It IS the one x. Only bigger battery and sd slot. HTC isnt going to specifically mention every one x variant by name. And the evo3d was a whole different mess as it was the only one of its kind. Apples and oranges.
Yes, it DOES look like Jelly Bean is coming but does anyone know when? No. No one knows. I'm not even sure HTC knows.

I'm more interested in this myself....
.... What about a development version of Android 4.1?
For our developer community, we plan to make generic development ROMs of Jelly Bean available for both the HTC One X and HTC One S. As soon as the ROMs are ready, they will be posted to our HTCdev site (www.htcdev.com). We strongly recommend customers take the time to understand the limitations of the development software along with the terms and conditions on the site before downloading to their device.

Typically Sprint HTC phones have historically had larger batteries and removable media. This held true of the One X series with the EVO 4G LTE and I hope it is true of the One series.
My worry is that this will have the same problem as the 3D in regards to the camera. This looks like it could be tough to port to new ROMS which could hinder development. Love the look though.
I also don't like not being able to remove the battery. Not usually an issue but has been very handy sometimes. How does one reboot a device if it is boot looping without pulling the battery? Also want removable SD card but that isn't as big a real I don't think though again has been very useful in desperate times.

I usually preorder my phones so I can have it on release day but this time I will wait to see if multitasking is back. If HTC disables this core function of Android again I will be going with another manufacture. Its ridiculous that if I am looking at a web page then check a text message then go back to the browser the page has to reload. I find this very infuriating, especially with all the power this phone is packing. Sense 5 doesn't look promising with the live tiles. Judging from the last couple of sense versions this release will be throw together also and won't be able to handle this new feature without studdering and serious lag.

It's ok... The best thing is the speakers... All phones speakers should face you... It just makes sense. But other that I don't see anything special about compared to the new up coming phones.

So are the windows essentially just widgets u could add to the screen?
I'm really drawn to the hd screen, extra ram, and extra storage. I also really love HTC's camera software.
The one drawback is the apparent lack of mSD expansion. As a systems engineer, I carry enough gear with me, so I often use my phone at job sites, carrying suites of software tools, ISOs, etc. That's in addition to the usual books, music, etc. So not having more than 64gb of storage that doesn't rely on the cloud will be a PitA (all too often, I'm in reception blackholes).
I know it'll come in 32 and 64gb flavors, but I really hate paying the premium for higher storage capacity consumption devices/phones.
If the Evo flavor ever does come to fruition, I have to hope that it comes with a microSD slot. Further, if it is released, I'll hold off getting one. I'm pretty happy with the 4g LTE and the price will drop in like 3 months anyway.
I'm in the same boat as you, I like having expandable storage. I can't always rely on cloud services. It's actually quite a debate. Some people like to flame others for wanting an sd card slot. I don't get it. Since I use my phone for work, mp3 player, and camera, the more storage I can get the better. I don't always have data and life is too busy too constantly swap what I have in my storage.
I tend to agree with many of the points raised here. Lack of external storage is rough, as is losing the kickstand. Also, while the new camera has better low light, i think 4MP is too low to allow for cropping. I'd have preferred a camera as good as Lumia 920.

How does this compare to the One? I'm trying to get an upgrade at the end of the year. I'm eligible this month but rather wait.

I would imagine that it can only be as good or better...IF this is in fact true. And Brian said...let's wait.
Thats the sex!!!!
With Sprint already having the "one" i dont see the point?
Most likely polycarbonate, 5" screen, proper buttons, s800 and maybe an SD card.. I'd ditch the One in a heartbeat.

It's definitely gonna be a nice phone! I owned the Evo 4G, still have my Evo 3D with about 6 extra batteries , and still have 2 Evo LTE (1 in each color). That said, I could care less if it has the Evo name or not, to be honest, I don't care if it's named HTC Turd! Lol. A name is just that, a name. It has nothing to do with the phones features and functionality! If it doesn't have an sd card slot then I won't even consider it! The One is a huge disappointment to me with no sd card slot and only a 4.7" display! That's why I now have a Note 2. I wanted a bigger display and gotta have an sd card slot! After 6 or 7 years of nothing but HTC phones, this Samsung is a very nice change(NEVER thought I would EVER say that)! It's nice to not have to worry about s-off/unlocking the bootloader, since Samsung doesn't lock their sh1t down like HTC does!! Oh, also nice being able to swap batteries again! One of the first things I did was order an extra battery! Almost forgot how awesome it was being able to swap batteries in my Evo 4G and Evo 3D!!

This is terrible imo... While I like the evo line I think that HTC made the right move having one phone rather than several. It has increased sales and spurred development.

I actually agree. When I first saw thus, I felt as though HTC was going back on their word to deliver One device (pun intended.)

HTC Evo 4G LTE
Well the One doesn't have LTE800 and it's going to start popping up soon so I'm ready to have a phone with both LTE bands ready to go. (assuming that this is all true and if the Butterfly S does in fact have the correct radios for LTE 1900+800).The One on Sprint has such a crappy antenna design when it comes to LTE and 1X...I didn't use my upgrade on it so I'm ok with the switch if need be.

Thank you for this. Just made my decision yo get the One easier. I was worried about snap 800 right around the corner, and honestly, I think this butterfly device is butt ugly and screen too big.
Thanks, Brian :thumbup:
