Hope they will be quicker updating whatever version of Android it uses than on their older phones for example, HTC tend to priorities sales rather than software updates

Looks like a worthy replacement to the venerable original HTC Desire. If the S3 doesn't have any major tricks up its sleeve, i'll be getting this the minute it comes out.

Yep, seems like the job to replace the Desire HD

They're still going for the guts of 200 quid on adverts which is good news if you're looking to sell..

The price you pay for having sense UI (which I don't like)

Mightn't be to your liking but its certainly not shíte. In my opinion its the nicest interface of any Android phone. Cant wait to see ICS with Sense 4. Anyway thats for another thread. The HTC One looks great. That is some amount of processing power for a phone.

I would very much like one of these. Alas I am rocking a Sensation that I got last summer, so it's not even a year into it's 18 month contract. Ah well, I'll have to make do with (hopefully) ROMs for sensation based on Sense 4.0...

Does look like HTC are getting back to amazing looking phones, if they stick with these 3 or 4 phones as their entire lineup,that'd be cool...

really hope Meteor get this - and not just the S or V (like they haven't got the Sensation XE).

Really like the look of the phone and the new HTC Sense features so would love to get this in a month or so.

Having said that, the Samsung Galaxy S 3 could blow it out of the water in a few weeks, so it will be interesting to see what happens there. As long as Meteor stock one of them I'll be happy enough I reckon
