HTC's new Desire 12 and 12+ embody the company's recent failures in the smartphone market

[Redaktion]

HTC has announced the release of its two new budget devices, the Desire 12 and Desire 12+. Considering how much of a part the Desire series played in the journey of Android, it's a tad surprising to see the latest devices in the series fall so flat on their faces.

Hard to disagree with this write-up overall. I mean look at HTC U11+ for example. The batt size brought some relief (finally!) because all this while it seems like HTC were bent on being anti over 3000mAh for God knows why on every single top end flagship of theirs before. This being said, HTC could have still fine tuned the release because U11+ hasn't really scored what it should in the batt life tests dept.

They changed heads but whoever is in charge of product planning I believe are so lucky thus far, should have been fired or quickly removed when Google passed that money for the engineers. Evidently Google was smart enough probably to have successfully avoided from lugging said person in along with the deal.
