    Post Why can't HTC or Motorola make a truly flagship device?



    We see a lot of phones these days, and not just because there are a lot of manufacturers out there. No, we see a lot of phones these days because there are a lot of manufacturers out there, and they are making a lot of phones. There is nothing wrong with that at all, truth be told. These companies make money by selling phones, and the only way to keep doing that is to make phones that everyone wants. Or someone wants, over and over again. It helps that companies like HTC and Samsung have multiple mobile operating systems to choose from to release a phone, while companies like LG (for the majority, anyway) and Motorola have chosen their Android ways, but manage to release plenty of devices (one company more than the other, though) anyway. But, here’s a question: why on Earth is Samsung the only company out there that can manage to make a truly flagship phone?

    the article seems to be more ranting than facts ... why did they write such a long article so baseless ....
    real reason for mass fame has to do with ads , more spread of word ...
    Just look at Beats headphones they made it popular due to Dr Dre as a icon ...
    But we all know its a piece of junk that people wear for fashion ...

    that article is crap.. anyone who has known android long enough knows that motorola, htc and even lg have their flagships

    motorola's flagships are the droid/milestone line and the incredible line - just that they dont garner as much attention as samsung galaxy line because the galaxies IMO are usually better specked but none the less motorolla has their following

    same applies to HTC, although they do not have particularly brand name device like "galaxy " or "droid" but they have the name "HTC" and thats ALL THEY NEED!! if someone says "yo boss.. i have a HTC android phone" no questions asked.. u know he has a top-quality phone.. their NAME in itself implies the term flagship boss.. is like chuck norris.. he doesnt go swimming at all!! water just wants to be around him!!

    A SO DEM ROLL!!

    think you guys are missing the point of the article completely, the razr droid is the closest to a flagship droid moto has, and the jury is still out, what stands out in htc? they release too much phones similarly spec'd and none stand out like the samsung...

    Someone ask for a flagship? HTC being so kind they have decided to give you 4

    #1 Sensation XE & XL

    #2 Amaze 4G

    #3 Rezound

    #4 Raider 4G

    All match up to the SGS2 in different ways... please please remember besides SGS2 and Galaxy nexus samsung does not have multiple phones out. remember they lost a few law suites to Apple.

    And I agree with Pezz and Vylle points...I just added pics to hopefully bring the thread to an end sooner.

    I guess flag ship means only one phone? lol
    Maybe HTC like to be different... It just makes Sense 3.5 lol get it sense 3.5 ? no ahh crap failed at my joke...

    missing the point again, by next month 4 more htc like that will be out and those will be forgotten

    you techies seem to meet alot of easy points, too smart eh? lol, sad

    sometimes less is better, there is only one iphone, only one ssgII, and a million htc phones floating around
