Whoah hold down there a minute. Certain things are included in certain market and I think we're trying to figure out what exactly who is getting what be it buying the unlocked version straight from htc or buying it from a carrier.
As far as the head ones are concerned these are the jbl noise cancelling ones.definatley not no 10 dollar Inc. Find me a pair of those for 10 dollars and I'll buy them.these are connected through the USB port.
The charger is another thing if I buy a phone I don't want to have to go out before I get the phone and get a charger. It boils down to cost cutting but for a phone that's going to cost me 900 dollars surely they can include at leat that.
Am I wrong in thinking they are legally bound to provide the product as advertised when you pre-order? There is no asterisk here that says "only in certain regions".
It's pretty awful to have it on the spec sheet when it's not offered. I'll bet that if someone ordered based on that and kept a screenshot, they'd get their headphones, even though it might require escalating the complaint beyond HTC. I had an ATT phone rep make a false promise and it required the FTC to straighten them out.Oh, I see. You have to click on the "Learn More>>" link of the "Audio" section of the "Description" tab to see that though. I guess that makes it "legal", but it is certainly misleading.
I want to give them a second chance, and the 10 might just do the trick, but they're not making it easy, particularly for the USA. No 64GB option, most likely no headphones, not offering all color choices. C'mon, HTC. I know you have to make deals with the carriers, and app sponsors et al. but you're not in a position any longer to be charging $699 for a phone....
.
The phone isn't available yet though. If there's no freebies then it absolutely makes sense for people to wait to see what other deals come along since they can't have the phone for another few weeks anyway.Totally agree. In my opinion, if you aren't buying the phone due to a charger or ear buds then you probably weren't going to buy it anyway.
Funny I talked to chat support today and the answer is no.the only thing included is the charger and cableI just asked on chat support. I asked if the unlocked HTC 10 preorder will ship with headphones. He said yes, ships with headphones and charger!

I used the wrong word I guess I shouldn't of used the word funny and used strange as funny it makes it sound like I'm calling him a liar ,my apologies.To be fair, your conversation with tech support and McDoogie's took place three days apart. A bit of dust has settled in the interim.
Well...there is this disclaimer...

I'm definitely down on them for their mistake but let's not blow this up to sound as if they are intentionally duping customers. It was a mistake, smartphone manufacturers are certainly not immune to them. They released an apology for the twitter thing and hopefully they clarify on the website so all their ducks are in a row.but If this is how HTC does business.
