Oh HTC :(

After almost ten years of nothing but HTC cell phones, we had to go in another direction. Picked up a moto Z Force for the wife to replace her A9 and I got an essential phone to replace my HTC 10. Really wanted to stay with HTC but they have nothing to compel me to pay the amount of money that they want for their phones. It is almost as if they are no longer trying which is too bad.

My wife has the Moto Z2 Force.  She loves it.  WiFi was messed up and she had to replace it.  Returned it.  Second unit has been good.  Still waiting on the projector to arrive via FedEx ground.  Been travelling over the road from Minnesota, North Dakota and Montana.  Should be frozen solid by the time it gets to Washington State.

Yup. The wife likes her Moto so far. I just made sure she had a screen protector on day one!

Gotta say I'm happy with the Essential for the most part.  Did drop it last week and cracked the screen.  They were quick to replace it too. Htc just fell off after the M8. I did NOT like the 10.

The 10 was a pretty good phone although I missed my true dual speaker set up.

I too moved away from HTC. I’ve had almost every model Sprint carried since the Audiovox 3100.. but Pixel 2 XL called my name. I had nothing but problems with my HTC10. I had a case open and still open since May of last year. No resolution. Once in a while they send out an email. “We are working hard to resolve your case” blah blah.. I moved away from Sprint too. New phone new carrier.

My wife and I have been using HTC phones since the EVO 4g. I had a short stint with the Nexus 5 between the HTC 7 and 8. When htc upgraded the 10 to Nougat we suddenly had horrible battery life. It got so bad that we ended up forking out the money for two pixel 2 phones.

The speakers on this phone are what should have been in the HTC 10.

    • T-Mobile interferes with NextWave's network, FCC finds https://www.lightreading.com/5g/t-mobile-interferes-with-nextwave-s-network-fcc-finds At this point, T-Mobile should just open up the checkbook and pay whatever it takes together rid of NextWave for good. 
    • Flashback (January 11, 2018): Sprint Says No to mmWave, Yes to Mobile 5G https://www.lightreading.com/5g/sprint-says-no-to-mmwave-yes-to-mobile-5g Sprint's CTO said Wednesday that he is not sure that using millimeter waves to deliver 5G services is a practical economic use of the high-band spectrum and that Sprint will be focusing on using its existing bandwidth to deploy 5G, at least initially. "What is the cost to deliver a bit over millimeter waves? Where is the business case on that?" John Saw asked at the Citi conference in Las Vegas. The logic here is that using sub-6GHz networks to deliver 5G -- Sprint Corp. (NYSE: S) is using 2.5GHz -- will allow operators to get better coverage than mmWave (typically 28GHz or 39GHz) and re-use its infrastructure.
    • It looks like they have 700mhz of 24ghz n258 in those areas anyway. Seems like they've been trying to streamline mmw to just n258 anyway.
    • New n261 license reduction for Brooklyn and Queens kinda gives insight into T-Mobile's mmWave plans going forward. While it sucks that they aren't going to widely deploy it in the outer boroughs, they chose great areas to retain the license. Downtown Flushing, Long Island City, Dumbo, Greenpoint, and Williamsburg all make the cut which is pretty obvious given their density.  I'm surprised to see Red Hook make it in and the entire waterfront along Sunset Park. Maybe they plan on some mmWave small cells along 1st Ave in Industry City. Also looks like they retained the license in the party section of Bushwick/East Williamsburg where Elsewhere, House of Yes, Brooklyn Mirage, etc. all are so that would be cool to see get covered in mmWave. In Queens they scooped up Citi Field, Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, and all of Flushing Meadows Park which should be helpful for all of the festivals that take place in that part of Queens. Also looks like they kept the license for LGA but not for JFK.
