Get the "F" out!!! No microSD card???
People buying this might as well buy an iPhone and sync through iTooonz and iSky!!

November 29th here I come; take my $699. plus my share of NYS/NYC sales tax!!

Yeah when I found out it was like a punch in the face! HTC really doesn't get it. EVERYONE is putting nice sized batteries but HTC just walks down its own path.

Don't they know that path leads to oblivion? WAKE UP HTC!

actually, they aren't purposley sabatoging it. if they knew they were sabatoging it, then they would stop it

the fact that they aren't doing anythig about it labels them as plain stupid

I think its the buracrac y. the smart people who realize this is stupid can't talk and can't do anything about it. the stupid ones who add bloatware and make stupid designs don't realize that they are doing something wrong

and thats why we're not getting Nexus4... man, it sucks to be on Verizon sometimes. except i cant leave b/c my unlimited data of course.
i also hate CDMA vs GSM. we miss out on some really great phones. at least VoLTE launches soon?

I think they will do like they did with de One X+... In the next few months they're going to release a better version of this with better battery life.

Maybe in standby. This thing will get a couple hours of screen time, tops.

At least you get 4.1, when most phones are just now receiving 4.0 and won't even see 4.1 one for months, or may not even see it period.

I won't be. I got an N4, so I will get 4.2. Even if I was on Verizon, I wouldn't get this. It's a show pony, not a work horse, with that tiny (By Android standards) battery.

I have to agree about the battery. I was soo hoping HTC would have a winner with the DNA, but the battery is just soo... Dinky!?

Yeah, that's just disappointing. Of course, of the major advancements in smartphone technology I have not personally used, a 1080p screen would have been LOW on my list of priorities. Give me next-gen graphics (PowerVR Rogue), unbelievable battery life, ceramic/carbon fiber bodies...almost anything, except resolution bumps. The 720p screens, at that size, are already awesome, and I don't need a better grade of awesome, I need a phone that matches that screen in every other way.
