Hurray, Roland Quandt lives and keeps on leaking. Our second most favourite leakster has just Twittered that HTC will release four colour variants of its upcoming U12 Plus smartphone. There will be classic black, red and violet colours as well as a half-transparent one. Cool, right? Unfortunately, Quandt believes that U12 Plus will be a pretty expensive smartphone. According to him, it will cost something around 950 – 1000 dollars. That is quite a bit. Whether or not the device will be worth it is up to you.

HTC lied in its U11 ad and United Kingdom banned said add

The story goes as follows: HTC has been promoting its U11 smartphone in the UK since mid-2017. Its advertisement, like advertisements do, promoted and highlited phone’s main features. Ad showed British Olympic diver Tom Daley use his HTC U11 at the swimming pool, taking selfies, using phone’s squeezable sides, all the good stuff. Important detail of the ad was that Mr. Daley was using his phone as he was going out of the pool. This was when UK’s Advertising Standards Authority came in, stating that element of the ad is misleading. HTC responded by, well, tucking its ...
