HTC’s latest promotional video for the upcoming “All New HTC One” teases the handset’s “sleeker” unibody construction, which is both taller and thinner than the original model. The first HTC One had a plastic chassis that held the front and rear aluminum panels together, but HTC appears to have eliminated that for its latest flagship.
Samsung has released two new promotional videos for the Galaxy S5 today, focusing on the handset’s design and new features. One showcases its much-improved new back panel, slimmer form factor, and larger display; while the other highlights things like the 2,800mAh battery, its 2.5GHz quad-core processor, and its new software features.
HTC Watch, the movie store that comes pre-installed on HTC devices, will close in the United Kingdom on March 31. HTC confirmed the news in an email to users this week, and the company encourages them to download movies to their devices if they wish to keep them.
Samsung unveiled its scaled-down portable Galaxy Tab 3 variant, the Galaxy Tab 3 7.0, back in April, 2013, and three months later the device was available to purchase in the U.S. from several independent retailers for $199. However, if you haven’t had the opportunity to pick one up before now, it might interest you to know that Best Buy is currently listing the slate with a $20 discount if you order online.
Yesterday, an unannounced HTC smartphone passed through the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the U.S. Information included in the brief filing documentation reveals that we could potentially be looking at the ‘All New HTC One’ (HTC6525L) — a revamped model of the Taiwanese company’s flagship smartphone of 2013.
