Hey guys, I speak alot on the mobile market, but its because the mobile market is evolving so fast. The pace that it is moving is unlike any technology we've ever seen. This year HTC has poised itself to make a good year, especially after its loss. Signing the deal with Sony and PlayStation to bring PlayStation suite to HTC devices was a great move. And the one series can cement them this year and prove premium handsets don't just belong to Samsung. Speaking of the one series, there's one thing that it lacks...expandable memory but, comes in the HTC cloud service that they're bundling in with purchases of the one series devices. I forget it its 1 or 2 years free, but its 25 additional gb on top of the on board storage the devices have. So now we have the Google cloud, amazon cloud and bundle in a personalized HTC cloud? And now you have data, music, and media in many places. Expandable memory may soon be forgotten in the android community if we can move the masses into the cloud. Which personally I've joined. But why is it that they've tossed the micro SD slot? Tossing the slot slims the devices, which was a main complaint for most consumers...and yes I hear you out there saying the Droid razr offers expandable memory at 7.7 mm thin. Yes, but they also had to ad extra width to the phone to make everything possible. The one x? Got down to 8.9 its the slimmest HTC device we've ever seen. The removal of the SD slot made this possible, with the removal of expandable memory HTC integrated a free subscription to their cloud service with the purchase of your one series device. Now you may say I'm a fan of cloud services, and also how come the razr kept the SD card and slimmed in under 8mm? Well I ask you, how much real estate is On the side of the device? From the screen to the edges? There is quite a bit of extra space they left there. Now I'm just a young man with a blog, and an HTC phone and I'm jealous of the new owners receiving this perk just for purchasing a new phone...how about myself and legacy device owners (I.e sensation series) receiving a mini cloud. 3gb at best nothing major, just to play around with. This way we don't feel out of the loop. Im no CEO, I just have an opinion on these things and I feel its best to give perks to those loyal consumers. Especially those who love their sensations. I mean, the original sensations and the evo 3d just missed the whole beats integration, so are you going to make us miss out on this cloud service? Please don't. ... But its just a thought.
