I started out with an HTC for my first smartphone years ago. it appeared so large and heavy. It was a pleasant surprise to findthat it wasn’t at all. It’s the perfect size and has so many unique features only HTC can create. I love the BlinkFeed, Themes, and how spaced apart the icons are in the app drawer. I’ve dropped it here and there and it’s still imperfect condition.
I like to buy covers for mine which also helps when I’m clumsy. The battery ranges from 13-14 hours or more depending on my daily usage. Overall, I’m hooked on HTC’s quality and don’t think I’ll ever switch to another brand. Very happy with this device!
