  • HTC doesn't sell as well as Samsung

    because their phones don't have microSD slots or removable batteries. HTC could use titanium alloy and diamonds in the construction of their phones and I won't buy one if it doesn't have those 2 features. Fanbois can tell me I don't need them all day long but when I'm spending my money, I'm buying the features that I want. Not what somebody who doesn't know me tells me I want.

    • HTC Does Have microSD cards and Removable Batteries

      You're referring to the inferior Iphone. I currently have an HTC EVO 3D and I have a removable microSD card and a removable battery. Actually, I have a few spare batteries to use when I'm not able to charge my phone (i.e. long flights).

      • Nope

        I'm referring to the inferior HTC One that Matt and Kevin were talking about in the podcast. You did listen to it before replying to my comment, right?
