The BETTER One is coming out, which seems impossible, but they did it.

That's all for now, no more leaks.

You leaked it.


Well the current HTC One is supreme and I couldn't think of any way they could improve on it, but they have.

At the moment, the name is " The All New HTC One" we'll just have to wait and see how they've improved on the impossible and how they've improved on the best phone ever designed.

lol why do you think its the best phone.
Havent you seen nokia lumias?? Particularly Lumia 720. It was one third the price of one, and a brilliantly designed phone.

In the price range of iPhone or one you can buy another awesome nokia Lumia icon.

Nokia's are good, but currently it's the Android and metal build that is giving the HTC One all the awards (well actually not because of android)

I've seen the latest Nokia and used it but they are too colourful an easy target and a horrible collection.

Yes, I would still recommend Nokia over the iPhone because you're getting your monies worth.

Tech neck....

Your smartphone could be giving you wrinkles

9 March 2014

The use of smartphones and other gadgets could be giving you wrinkles around the neck, as constantly looking down at handheld devices and computers develops a line around the neck and chin.

According to CACI international, a U.K. nonsurgical facelift systems manufacturer and supplier, there is an emergence of the new wrinkle 'Techneck' amongst tech-obsessive people, Slate Magazine reported.

The CACI, who have noticed a surge in enquiries on combating lines around the neck area, are offering to combat 'Teckneck' with a treatment called the Microlift.

Dean Nathanson, managing director of CACI international said that they have identified a correlation between the rise of technology in recent years and the growth of the 'Techneck' and they can help people reduce wrinkles with their treatment.�

All new HTC One leaks in stylish new flip case
Mar 8th 2014

March 25th still more than 2 weeks ahead of us, we were wondering just how much more of the device would leak before its unveiling. We already received an interesting 12-minute hands-on of the phone last week, along with a benchmark following a few days later.

Today, @evleaks is giving us yet another look at the all HTC One, this time as it appears snugly inside its all new flip cover. The case looks similar enough to last year's model, only now it will apparently feature small Lite Brite-styled holes on the front to display information. We've seen similar offerings from Samsung and LG, but HTC unsurprisingly making things a lot more stylish.

Last year, we saw the HTC One eventually launch in a Google Play edition variant, so we assumed this year's updated model would be no different. Although we don't expect to receive any official confirmation until the phone is actually announced (or possibly during Google I/O), @evleaks has also received word that we could all look forward to a Google Play version of the new M8 as well. Schaweet.

You having a laugh sister.

All those who give your posts a thumbs up are the ones you want to ask, but they make excuses and shy away. The truth is, they won't come to defend something that has no chance.

Actually, I changed my mind, they have given you thumbs up for your courage.

I've obviously given you thumbs up because I think it will boost your confidence and make you feel that maybe there is something else that is better than the iPhone.

The iPhone 5c flop hurt Apple more than you might realize



When Apple unveiled its latest iPhones, the 5s and 5c, many wondered why the 5c was priced just $100 less on a new two-year contract than the 5s, which was clearly seen as Apple's high-end phone. On a two-year contract the iPhone 5s costs $199 for the 16GB model, while the 5c costs $99 for a 16GB model. That's not much of a difference, despite the many different features the 5s offers.

The differences between the iPhone 5s and 5c are stark, with the 5s offering the 64-bit A7 chip, the M7 co-processor and TouchID, which Cook said customers clamored for. "I think the 5s, people are really intrigued with Touch ID," Cook said when asked why the iPhone mix was so skewed. "It's a major feature that has excited people. And I think that, associated with the other things that are unique to the 5s, got the 5s to have a significant amount more attention and a higher mix of sales."

The iPhone 5c offers none of those features, and is actually just the iPhone 5 in several plastic casings, coming in green, yellow, blue, red and white. Consumers, particularly in North America, saw this as a retread item from Apple, and clearly opted for the 5s.

Apple noted that it believed it was opening up its ecosystem to even more customers by unveiling the second phone, which to its credit, it did. However, the pricing structure between the 5c and 5s was, and now clearly is, a mistake, as more people want the latest and greatest from Apple, not a second-tier phone.

Supply chain management is supposed to be Tim Cook's area of expertise. This large gaffe, of betting on the 5c this much, seems to speak to Cook's failing in this area, at least in the short term. He did note that the 5s eventually came into proper supply, but that it took Apple much of the quarter to get it right.

This is a gaffe for not only Apple, but Cook as well, as the company comes under pressure from shareholders, particularly Carl Icahn, who want to see the company do more with its cash. Apple looks like it will overcome this mistake, and learn that pricing an inferior product so close to a superior one doesn't make much sense, even if you put an Apple logo on the back of it.

I believe the thumbs up are for support in my views and good taste in choice of phone, 'iphone', which means members that have given my posts thumbs up are also iPhone users and can relate to my love for iPhones.

I don't believe sales can predict whether a particular handset is better than another. You keep posting about the HTC handsets I don't see any difference, apart from the iPhone being produced by a reputable company. Apple is apple, it's not like your paying for a merc and getting a ford escort, you get what you pay for, a reputable and reliable product.

To be honest, for me Apple have been an inspiration to many, me too.

The fact they came out with the 5C is something no one expected because Apple only target yuppie type of people. With the 5C they tried something new. In other words, they tried to appeal to the lesser spenders like myself. But the problem is that they still priced it to high. Other brands have budget handsets which out perform the 5c, and this is the biggest issue.

All the other brands make handsets to suit different budgets, what do Apple do? They increase the memory which costs them 80pence and charge hundreds of pounds more.

So why should someone who can't afford a Mercedes, be forced to buy one just because there friend has one?

I'd rather buy a Ford because it costs less to buy, cost less to run, costs less to maintain and still gets me from A to B with the added satisfaction that if it crashes, I could fix it for a lot less too.
