Oh What a Shame, the HTC First Isn’t Coming to the UK

The HTC First, the disastrous Zucker-HTC mashup that's crashed and burned in the States, has had its UK launch delayed indefinitely. They're not even going to fulfil the three pre-orders that were placed. It was scheduled to come to the UK 'exclusively' with EE in the next few months, but now I guess Facebook addicts will have to click two extra buttons or install Facebook Home to get their stalking fill. The horror. Read More >>

UK HTC One Lacked Micro SD Slot Due to “Space” Restrictions

According to technical reasons we are not clever enough to be able to argue with, the version of the HTC One sold here lacks an SD card slot due to internal space restrictions. Because of something to do with our mobile radio frequencies. That's what HTC says and we are powerless to argue. Read More >>

The Red HTC One Is Real, Probably

It looks like HTC took a look at these awesome colourful renders from the other week, and decided it would be a great idea to spice up the One with a splash of red. It's not quite as bright as the concept renders, but at least this one is real -- well, if retailer Handtec can be believed, anyway. Read More >>

Rumour: HTC Will Launch a One-Mini in a Few Months

Liked the HTC One, but thought it was a bit big (or a bit pricey)? Well, rumour (from the normally-reputable @evleaks) has it that we'll soon be seeing a 4.3-inch, lower-specced version of the One, which'll serve up the One's good looks in a smaller, dual-core package. Read More >>

Obesity Crisis Hits HTC One, But Doubles its Battery Life

That vaguely familiar chap up there is the HTC One carrying an extra three or four stone in additional flab, thanks to the Mophie Juice Pack. In return for fattening up your phone you get nearly double the battery life, which is a trade off we suspect many will take. Read More >>

Nokia’s Attempt to Block HTC One Sales Has Failed, For Now

Nokia's spat with HTC over microphones thankfully won't affect sales of the awesome One for the time being. HTC's apparently free to use the HDR microphones it bought from STM electronics and to continue to sell HTC Ones with them already in until further notice, which is good, because HTC really needs the One to do well.

HTC One Update Hitting Today, Improving Camera and “Stability”

HTC's said to be pushing out an update for its monstrously popular HTC One smartphone in Europe today, focusing on updates to the phone's camera system. The upgrade features camera sound, noise reduction, dynamic range and EXIF data fixes, plus HTC says users who install it should see "improved system performance and stability" as a result.

The HTC One Could End Up Getting Banned From Europe By Nokia

It seems HTC just can't catch a break. It's got a stellar phone in the One, but it can't get them out the door quick enough because of supply issues, and now Nokia's attempting to ban it. It's managed to get a preliminary injunction against HTC, which could see it barred from sale in Europe. Read More >>

Samsung Might Be Hiring Students to Post Bitchy Comments on HTC One Reviews

Naughty-boy of tech Samsung is in hot water yet again -- this time, it's apparently been hiring students to post mud-slinging comments at the bottom of HTC One reviews, and the same Taiwanese authorities that raided their offices looking for industrial espionage are now investigating Sammy for false advertising. Uh-oh. Read More >>

What If the HTC One Came In These Awesome Colours?

HTC's finances have hit rock bottom, profit's down, revenue's down, and production hiccups mean it just can't get that fantastic new flagship out the door fast enough. HTC's going to need some seriously miraculous sales to dig it out of that mess, so maybe going radically coloured with the HTC One is the way forward? Read More >>
