Sana lang almost same pricing as Android series nila or lower. Okay na sakin yung 8V for around 11-12k.
Where is launching?
HTC going back to to where it began.My HTC Prophet is still working til now w/c was purchased on 2006.Put an SPB Shell on it w/ “rubber band effect” which surprisingly is owned by Apple.
The smartphone industry is looking good with all these options.
