I have the developers edition. My updates come directly from htc. The phone just isn't that great. It's really that simple. The adaptive buttons are stupid. I'm always hitting the back button. I can't wait to ditch this phone.

To each his own. If you want to change phones, by all means do it. You don't have to use something you don't like.

For many of us, this phone has been great. The button layout was one of many factors I went for the HTC One and not the S4. Having a back button on the left side is more natural than placing it on the right.

I somewhat agree with the updates, but HTC promised 4.3 for all unlocked/dev editions by the end of September. IMHO they shouldn't have skipped 4.2.2 for US models but if they keep their promise, all will be fine.

Sony, lg, & moto don't even have a time line yet. I think rhe gpe gets the code out faster to htc & samsung.

I would love to get the Note 3 because I have the S3 and the Note 10.1.

But if you think the HTC One sucks, you wont be satisfied with anything. It took me one year to stop getting worked up about updates. It's like i've heard others say....."If you don't like the phone the way it is in the store, DON'T BUY IT!" Never bet your life on their promises about updates because something always comes up.

How could anyone really think the HTC One is not good? All those reviewers are dead wrong? I don't even have or want one but that just doesn't make sense. By today's standards it's a premier phone.

Why not just flash to google edition if it's such a problem?

I have to agree. I dont have one either but I think it's a really great phone. There are several really good phones out there right now - something for everyone. Just because its not your choice doesn't make it bad. Don't understand bashing other makes, models, or OS. They all have their pros and cons. As grandpa used to say, "that's why they make chocolate and vanilla ice cream." Heck, wish I could have one of each! ;-)

A Little Premier and kind of outdated phone.

The dev edition is still dependent on carriers for updates. The reason the dev addition doesn't have any new OSs in the US is likely AT&T.

That. Right there. Up above.

When you realize who is really responsible for your device not getting updated it makes things a little easier to take.

He just assumed he got the updates direct..

Well you know what they say about assuming... .

That's completely incorrect. The developers edition is also compatable with other services. A quick call to htc will tell you that the developers edition gets updates before att locked phones. It is not an att phone and does not get the same updates the updates come directly from htc. The reason for it is technically developers are supposed to be using the phone and getting a head start on the updates. Matter of fact the firmware is completely different.

Sorry, that isn't correct. Many of us were under the same assumption, but it is not accurate. Because of the LTE bands and the way each carrier implements them differently the carriers must test OS updates before they are pushed out on their networks. Even for dev editions that are not carrier branded or sold.

Either way you cut it the developer edition gets the update before the carrier. Regardless I know I'm being harsh on the phone. It's a good phone I just can't help but feel a little burned by htc.

Okay but now you're arguing about getting it before the carrier version... Okay so what? You get it before...

The point they were saying was you're blaming HTC when it's the carrier that could be dragging their feet on the update. Therefore... That's not HTC's fault.

We hope it does, but we don't have any evidence of that yet do we?
