I don’t get it. Don’t all smart phones look the same?

They do now, since Apple showed the phone manufacturers what they should look like, but they should not look EXACTLY like an iPhone.

HTC is the reason why I now own my first IPhone.

On my last day at Disney World in Sept, 2014, HTC sent an automatic update to my One X that turned it into a brick. Every picture taken - gone - along with everything else.

Sprint couldn’t access the phone again. An outside recovery expert couldnt. The phone went into a reboot loop everytime it was reset.

Sprint offered to send me another OneX. Why the hell would they think I would trust that phone again?? I refused. They refused to offer me another product. One customer service agent accused me of trying to cheat my way to a better phone earlier than when my contract allowed when I suggested they replace it with an IPhone.

Really?

Verizon was more than happy to take my business AND provide me an IPhone.

I was a loyal HTC customer until last year. That OneX was my 4th HTC phone. I was a loyal Sprint customer until then, having been a custoner for more than 14 years.

HTC is the reason why I now own my first IPhone. I’m typing this on my first IPad. Windows 8 is why I own it.
