One of the first smartphone announcements we hear from IFA in Berlin this week comes from HTC. HTC announced the new Desire 300 and 601 with Vivid Blue HTC One Mini and One devices coming later in Q4 2013. They are also expanding their accessory lineup with the BoomBass Bluetooth-enabled subwoofer.
I understand that HTC wants to have devices across the pricing spectrum, but it seems that the One and One Mini pretty much cover that and I don't quite understand the need for more devices that get away from the One brand. HTC has done a bit better with Android updates on the One and One Mini and needs to continue to focus on regular updates and support while launching advanced One products.- Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 dual-core 1 GHz processor
