HTC on the Galaxy S4, “More of the same”

HTC’s Chief Marketing Officer, Ben Ho, to no one’s surprise was not impressed with the new Samsung Galaxy S4.

While the presentation was going on, HTC was trolling from Twitter unapologetically and introducing a hash tag “#theNextBigFlop.” With a demeanor like that, you might expect to hear some cats hissing at each other in an alleyway somewhere.

Mr. Ho offered up some sharp criticism for the new Samsung flagship and as one might expect, he hyped the premium feel of the HTC One and its design.

"With a continuation of a plastic body, and a larger screen being the most obvious physical change, Samsung's new Galaxy pales in comparison to the all-aluminum unibody HTC One.

This is more of the same. HTC remains the best option for those people looking for the best technology wrapped in premium design. Our customers want something different from the mainstream, who appear to be the target for the Galaxy.

Our customers want original cutting-edge technology, mouth-watering design and a premium feel from their mobiles, which is why we created the HTC One." - Ben Ho, Chief Marketing Officer, HTC
