Title: HTC admits phones "could be better"
Post by: Simon on February 06, 2012, 22:19

HTC has admitted its latest batch of smartphones aren't good enough, as the company posted disastrous January sales figures.

The company's latest monthly sales figures are more than 50% down on the same month last year, plummeting to 16m Taiwanese dollars. The company had previously reported a sharp drop in sales of 22% from the third to the fourth quarter of 2011.

HTC was one of the early Android smartphone pioneers, and won plaudits from PC Pro and customers alike for its HTC Sense interface and wide range of affordable, high quality handsets.
