One of our loyal readers received an email from a vendor listing "in-stock accessories for the latest Verizon Wireless devices" and displayed those accessories including Otter Box, Incipio and Case-Mate cases made for HTC's new Android flagship; either this vendor knows something that we don't, or else a mistake has been made...]]></description><category>News</category><pubDate>Thu, 23 May 2013 15:38:00 -0500</pubDate><comments>http://www.phonearena.com/news/HTC-One-coming-to-Verizon_id43321/comments</comments><author>Phone Arena</author></item><item><title>Insider says HTC is "in utter freefall"</title><link>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Insider-says-HTC-is-in-utter-freefall_id43286</link><description><![CDATA[<img src="http://i-cdn.phonearena.com/images/article/43286-thumb/Insider-says-HTC-is-in-utter-freefall.jpg" alt="" hspace="5" vspace="2" align="left" />Today has not been a good news day for HTC. Earlier, we not only heard that the company's Chief Product Officer had left the company last week, but another of a string of employees to leave the company recently told his former colleagues to "just quit. leave now." It has been a rough week, and now an inside source for The Verge has said that HTC is "in utter freefall"...]]></description><category>News</category><pubDate>Wed, 22 May 2013 11:56:00 -0500</pubDate><comments>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Insider-says-HTC-is-in-utter-freefall_id43286/comments</comments><author>Phone Arena</author></item><item><title>Mother's Day Giveaway: HTC First from AT&amp;T</title><link>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Mothers-Day-Giveaway-HTC-First-from-AT-T_id42873</link><description><![CDATA[<img src="http://i-cdn.phonearena.com/images/article/42873-thumb/Mothers-Day-Giveaway-HTC-First-from-AT-T.jpg" alt="" hspace="5" vspace="2" align="left" />May 12 is coming, guys, and you know what that means? It means that mom's going to be expecting a nice present from her beloved kid, because it's Mother's Day! Of course, we guess that many of you have already planned something to surprise mom, but just in case you're out of ideas, or out of good ideas, AT&T has you covered by giving you a chance to win an awesome new HTC First and the ability to send mom a lovely, personalized e-card...]]></description><category>News</category><pubDate>Fri, 10 May 2013 10:07:00 -0500</pubDate><comments>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Mothers-Day-Giveaway-HTC-First-from-AT-T_id42873/comments</comments><author>Phone Arena</author></item><item><title>Facebook Home arrives on Samsung Galaxy S4, HTC One and Sony Xperia ZL</title><link>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Facebook-Home-arrives-on-Samsung-Galaxy-S4-HTC-One-and-Sony-Xperia-ZL_id42856</link><description><![CDATA[<img src="http://i-cdn.phonearena.com/images/article/42856-thumb/Facebook-Home-arrives-on-Samsung-Galaxy-S4-HTC-One-and-Sony-Xperia-ZL.jpg" alt="" hspace="5" vspace="2" align="left" />Facebook Home might have one of the worst ratings of all popular apps on the Google Play store, but with 1 million downloads and counting it seems that people still download it…]]></description><category>News</category><pubDate>Fri, 10 May 2013 03:18:00 -0500</pubDate><comments>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Facebook-Home-arrives-on-Samsung-Galaxy-S4-HTC-One-and-Sony-Xperia-ZL_id42856/comments</comments><author>Phone Arena</author></item><item><title>HTC allegedly preps high-res R7 and R12 Windows RT Blue tablets for Q3 launch</title><link>http://www.phonearena.com/news/HTC-allegedly-preps-high-res-R7-and-R12-Windows-RT-Blue-tablets-for-Q3-launch_id42717</link><description><![CDATA[<img src="http://i-cdn.phonearena.com/images/article/42717-thumb/HTC-allegedly-preps-high-res-R7-and-R12-Windows-RT-Blue-tablets-for-Q3-launch.jpg" alt="" hspace="5" vspace="2" align="left" />It turns out that HTC might issue at least two slates with Microsoft's OS on them, codenamed R7 and R12, in accordance with their respective screen sizes. The "R" in the titles perhaps hints that these will be running the new Windows RT Blue edition Microsoft confirmed, but whether there will be "W" tablets with full-blown Win 8, too, is anyone's guess at this point...]]></description><category>News</category><pubDate>Tue, 07 May 2013 03:45:00 -0500</pubDate><comments>http://www.phonearena.com/news/HTC-allegedly-preps-high-res-R7-and-R12-Windows-RT-Blue-tablets-for-Q3-launch_id42717/comments</comments><author>Phone Arena</author></item><item><title>HTC M4 brings One style, sensibility downmarket</title><link>http://www.phonearena.com/news/HTC-M4-brings-One-style-sensibility-downmarket_id42524</link><description><![CDATA[<img src="http://i-cdn.phonearena.com/images/article/42524-thumb/HTC-M4-brings-One-style-sensibility-downmarket.jpg" alt="" hspace="5" vspace="2" align="left" />HTC has a certified hit on its hands with the sleek, unibody HTC One -- so it's natural that the company would want to extend its design language to lower price points.

Of course, nobody can say those two are nailing it in the eye candy department like HTC, Sony and Nokia do with their unibody chassis, so it's a tradeoff like everything else in our mobile experience...]]></description><category>News</category><pubDate>Fri, 19 Apr 2013 07:12:00 -0500</pubDate><comments>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Poll-results-Replaceable-battery-or-unibody-design---which-one-do-you-prefer_id42117/comments</comments><author>Phone Arena</author></item><item><title>Best Android phones to get this spring</title><link>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Best-Android-phones-to-get-this-spring_id42034</link><description><![CDATA[<img src="http://i-cdn.phonearena.com/images/article/42034-thumb/Best-Android-phones-to-get-this-spring.jpg" alt="" hspace="5" vspace="2" align="left" />Spring is in full bloom and as everything starts to get green and cheerful, you may look at your old phone and think it’s about time to bring change into your life...]]></description><category>News</category><pubDate>Wed, 17 Apr 2013 09:48:00 -0500</pubDate><comments>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Best-Android-phones-to-get-this-spring_id42034/comments</comments><author>Phone Arena</author></item><item><title>Replaceable battery or unibody design - which one do you prefer?</title><link>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Replaceable-battery-or-unibody-design---which-one-do-you-prefer_id41896</link><description><![CDATA[<img src="http://i-cdn.phonearena.com/images/article/41896-thumb/Replaceable-battery-or-unibody-design---which-one-do-you-prefer.jpg" alt="" hspace="5" vspace="2" align="left" />We were wondering how many people actually would carry a spare charged battery with them at all times, and to what extent the presence of a sealed battery compartment in the latest unibody designs would hinder their purchasing decision towards those handsets...]]></description><category>News</category><pubDate>Mon, 15 Apr 2013 05:48:00 -0500</pubDate><comments>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Replaceable-battery-or-unibody-design---which-one-do-you-prefer_id41896/comments</comments><author>Phone Arena</author></item><item><title>Facebook Home is not a threat to Android or Google (neither is Samsung or Amazon)</title><link>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Facebook-Home-is-not-a-threat-to-Android-or-Google-neither-is-Samsung-or-Amazon_id41856</link><description><![CDATA[<img src="http://i-cdn.phonearena.com/images/article/41856-thumb/Facebook-Home-is-not-a-threat-to-Android-or-Google-neither-is-Samsung-or-Amazon.jpg" alt="" hspace="5" vspace="2" align="left" />There is always a lot of talk around products that are supposedly "threats to Android" or "threats to Google", but we think that those arguments are looking at the puzzle the wrong way. Facebook Home is something wholly different and interesting, but it isn't a threat to Android. Samsung is by far the dominant handset maker in the Android ecosystem, but it isn't a threat to Google. Amazon completely forked Android and stripped out Google all together, but you know what? It isn't a threat to Google...]]></description><category>News</category><pubDate>Sat, 13 Apr 2013 12:31:00 -0500</pubDate><comments>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Facebook-Home-is-not-a-threat-to-Android-or-Google-neither-is-Samsung-or-Amazon_id41856/comments</comments><author>Phone Arena</author></item><item><title>13 terrible Windows Mobile smartphones from yesterday</title><link>http://www.phonearena.com/news/13-terrible-Windows-Mobile-smartphones-from-yesterday_id41704</link><description><![CDATA[<img src="http://i-cdn.phonearena.com/images/article/41704-thumb/13-terrible-Windows-Mobile-smartphones-from-yesterday.jpg" alt="" hspace="5" vspace="2" align="left" />Through the years, I’ve been fortunate to check out and review some wonderful smartphones.

HTC's Peter Chou came out near the end of the event to show off the HTC First, which will be the first device that has Facebook Home baked-in. The HTC First will be exclusive to AT&T and will release the same day as Facebook Home on April 12th, although pre-orders for the phone are live today...]]></description><category>News</category><pubDate>Thu, 04 Apr 2013 13:09:00 -0500</pubDate><comments>http://www.phonearena.com/news/HTC-First-announced-pre-orders-live-releasing-April-12-for-99_id41547/comments</comments><author>Phone Arena</author></item><item><title>Benchmark comparison: Galaxy S4 vs Galaxy S III vs Note 2 vs Optimus G Pro vs Nexus 4 vs HTC One</title><link>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Benchmark-comparison-Galaxy-S4-vs-Galaxy-S-III-vs-Note-2-vs-Optimus-G-Pro-vs-Nexus-4-vs-HTC-One_id41542</link><description><![CDATA[<img src="http://i-cdn.phonearena.com/images/article/41542-thumb/Benchmark-comparison-Galaxy-S4-vs-Galaxy-S-III-vs-Note-2-vs-Optimus-G-Pro-vs-Nexus-4-vs-HTC-One.jpg" alt="" hspace="5" vspace="2" align="left" />What could be more exciting than a benchmark comparison starring six of the best smartphones in the world?! Well, a lot of things, probably... but NOT when one of these smartphones is the one and only Galaxy S4! It's not really a secret that the GS4 is an amazing performer when it comes to benchmarks, but hey, it never hurts to give some perspective to its scores by comparing it to more and more Android smartphones. That's exactly what we've done here, so behold – the Galaxy S4 torches those benchmarks alongside the GS III, Note 2, Optimus G Pro, Nexus 4, and its biggest rival, the HTC One...]]></description><category>News</category><pubDate>Thu, 04 Apr 2013 09:37:00 -0500</pubDate><comments>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Benchmark-comparison-Galaxy-S4-vs-Galaxy-S-III-vs-Note-2-vs-Optimus-G-Pro-vs-Nexus-4-vs-HTC-One_id41542/comments</comments><author>Phone Arena</author></item><item><title>Image of HTC First smartphone leaks with Facebook Home installed</title><link>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Image-of-HTC-First-smartphone-leaks-with-Facebook-Home-installed_id41482</link><description><![CDATA[<img src="http://i-cdn.phonearena.com/images/article/41482-thumb/Image-of-HTC-First-smartphone-leaks-with-Facebook-Home-installed.jpg" alt="" hspace="5" vspace="2" align="left" />With the new Facebook flavored version of Android expected to be introduced Thursday, evleaks tweeted a picture of the HTC First, which is a smartphone running this enhanced OS; some specs were sent along with the photo including the size of the glass (4.3 inches), the dual-core processor and the 5MP camera all of which puts a mid-range label on the device...]]></description><category>News</category><pubDate>Tue, 02 Apr 2013 19:58:00 -0500</pubDate><comments>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Image-of-HTC-First-smartphone-leaks-with-Facebook-Home-installed_id41482/comments</comments><author>Phone Arena</author></item><item><title>AT&amp;T's HTC One release date is April 19, price starts from $199</title><link>http://www.phonearena.com/news/AT-Ts-HTC-One-release-date-is-April-19-price-starts-from-199_id41466</link><description><![CDATA[<img src="http://i-cdn.phonearena.com/images/article/41466-thumb/AT-Ts-HTC-One-release-date-is-April-19-price-starts-from-199.jpg" alt="" hspace="5" vspace="2" align="left" />AT&T has finally announced the release date and price of the HTC One - a smartphone that a lot of people have been looking forward to.

Its slick and toned aluminum unibody just begs to be flaunted, and is one of the best Android phone designs around.

Today we're revealing the results from our latest blind camera comparison, as well as the identities of all the smartphones that were used. A big "thank you" goes to everyone who cast their vote, and a 5 internets prize goes to those eagle-eyed few who named the handsets correctly in the comments! Perhaps you're all wondering which device we attached the mysterious Phone #4 moniker to.

We're so happy that we had the chance to check this guy out early on! Not only did we enjoy it, but we also managed to get a lot of content done for you guys. One of the things we decided is worth checking out was how the brilliant 5" 1080p Super AMOLED screen compared against the other best screens currently available. You know, the usual suspects like the iPhone 5, Lumia 920, One and so on. Well, let us tell you this – the Samsung has done a wonderful job with the GS4's screen, although there's still room for improvement...]]></description><category>Reviews</category><pubDate>Thu, 28 Mar 2013 09:42:00 -0500</pubDate><comments>http://www.phonearena.com/reviews/Screen-Comparison-Galaxy-S4-vs-iPhone-5-vs-Xperia-Z-vs-One-vs-Galaxy-S-III-vs-Lumia-920_id3286/comments</comments><author>Phone Arena</author></item><item><title>Don't expect the HTC One in the U.S. until late April</title><link>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Dont-expect-the-HTC-One-in-the-U.S.-until-late-April_id41135</link><description><![CDATA[<img src="http://i-cdn.phonearena.com/images/article/41135-thumb/Dont-expect-the-HTC-One-in-the-U.S.-until-late-April.jpg" alt="" hspace="5" vspace="2" align="left" />HTC has completely squandered the head start it had over Samsung in the U.S. as the Taiwan based company has announced that the HTC One won't reach North America until the end of next month, around the same time that the Samsung Galaxy S 4 is expected to launch in the United States; the HTC One will debut next week in the UK, Germany and Taiwan...]]></description><category>News</category><pubDate>Fri, 22 Mar 2013 12:37:00 -0500</pubDate><comments>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Dont-expect-the-HTC-One-in-the-U.S.-until-late-April_id41135/comments</comments><author>Phone Arena</author></item><item><title>Verizon delaying HTC One release for "testing", could this sink HTC?</title><link>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Verizon-delaying-HTC-One-release-for-testing-could-this-sink-HTC_id40795</link><description><![CDATA[<img src="http://i-cdn.phonearena.com/images/article/40795-thumb/Verizon-delaying-HTC-One-release-for-testing-could-this-sink-HTC.jpg" alt="" hspace="5" vspace="2" align="left" />This definitely isn't the first time that Verizon has delayed a release of something Android related in order to perform "testing", and it probably won't be the last, but this time is a much more dire situation for those involved than a couple of months waiting for an Android software update. This time around, the delay could have a serious impact on HTC, and could be trouble for the company...]]></description><category>News</category><pubDate>Wed, 13 Mar 2013 12:28:00 -0500</pubDate><comments>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Verizon-delaying-HTC-One-release-for-testing-could-this-sink-HTC_id40795/comments</comments><author>Phone Arena</author></item><item><title>Do you care about the viewing angles of your phone's display?</title><link>http://www.phonearena.com/news/Do-you-care-about-the-viewing-angles-of-your-phones-display_id40709</link><description><![CDATA[<img src="http://i-cdn.phonearena.com/images/article/40709-thumb/Do-you-care-about-the-viewing-angles-of-your-phones-display.jpg" alt="" hspace="5" vspace="2" align="left" />How important are screen viewing angles on your phone - do you care a lot about those levels, or do you think it does not matter, as you usually look at your handset straight-on, and, besides, it makes it more difficult for prying eyes to tell what's happening on your phone's screen?

They both have this magical aura around them that makes you want to hold them, touch them and of course, own them. Most of that appeal comes from the fact that the two handsets are very well made. Aluminum is used for the construction of both smartphones, which gives them a very solid, premium feel...]]></description><category>News</category><pubDate>Wed, 27 Feb 2013 06:34:00 -0600</pubDate><comments>http://www.phonearena.com/news/HTC-One-vs-iPhone-5--first-look_id40297/comments</comments><author>Phone Arena</author></item><item><title>HTC One vs Galaxy S III vs iPhone 5 picture and video samples comparison</title><link>http://www.phonearena.com/news/HTC-One-vs-Galaxy-S-III-vs-iPhone-5-picture-and-video-samples-comparison_id40295</link><description><![CDATA[<img src="http://i-cdn.phonearena.com/images/article/40295-thumb/HTC-One-vs-Galaxy-S-III-vs-iPhone-5-picture-and-video-samples-comparison.jpg" alt="" hspace="5" vspace="2" align="left" />We snapped a few photos  and videos at the MWC expo with the display HTC One unit, and then the same ones with Samsung's and Apple's finest.

Granted, the S III is thinner, but that doesn't really feel as an advantage, rather the HTC One feels more solid in the hand because of the extra girth, and easier to grip. The One is also more narrow and elongated, which helps operate it with just one hand and your thumb better than the S III...]]></description><category>News</category><pubDate>Tue, 26 Feb 2013 12:55:00 -0600</pubDate><comments>http://www.phonearena.com/news/HTC-One-vs-Samsung-Galaxy-S-III---first-look_id40266/comments</comments><author>Phone Arena</author></item><item><title>HTC: A brief history in solid handset designs</title><link>http://www.phonearena.com/news/HTC-A-brief-history-in-solid-handset-designs_id40076</link><description><![CDATA[<img src="http://i-cdn.phonearena.com/images/article/40076-thumb/HTC-A-brief-history-in-solid-handset-designs.jpg" alt="" hspace="5" vspace="2" align="left" />Now that HTC’s big fat cat is out of the bag, everyone is up in arms over the HTC One’s stunning design, which isn’t too surprising considering that it’s premium in every aspect.

The HTC One is one damn fine looking device, especially when it’s utilizing a sturdy metallic casing. Going with a metal unibody design, which HTC details specifically as a zero-gap aluminum body, our hands can’t stop falling in love with the sturdy feel.
