    HTC revealed three stylish new Desire smartphones at Mobile World Congress, but the real star was the One X9, an upper-range model with a spec sheet to suggest it’s the successor to the HTC One A9. You know, the one that looks like an iPhone.

    Nice looking case design, buuuuuuut...

    How many times can HTC botch the camera on a high-end smartphone before learning that this is actually a big deal for purchasers of high-end smartphones?

    Well, I'm coming from a Motorola, so let's just say I'm easily impressed by even midrange cameras.
