HTC is not completely abandoning its smartphone business in 2024 and is once again launching an upper mid-range smartphone on the market with the HTC U24 Pro. Modern design is combined with old virtues such as a 3.5 mm audio port and a notification LED. Will it make the leap into the modern age?
TIL HTC still makes phones.
Used to love their devices then they just kind of…disappeared.
I also thought they had stopped making phones until I saw this review. But looks like their smartphone division is a shadow of its former self now. I think it is their only smartphone released this year, and there are no update promises either. There is a 3.5mm jack and micro SD slot which is good to have at this price point, but nothing really distinguishes this phone. I am not sure if this is an international release or just available in certain markets only.
To be fair, nowadays I will appreciate every phone coming with a 3.5 jack.
For this device, the main issue for me is the curved display, otherwise it could be interesting as a mid ranger
