The manager at Verizon corporate store says Verizon will skip the Samsung Galaxy S4 and the HTC One

[Lodingi]

They did for the htc one. They said it on their twitter and Facebook.

It most likely will be rebranded as the Droid One or DNA 2.

The manager at Verizon corporate store says Verizon will skip the Samsung Galaxy S4 and the HTC One.

I got into an argument with him... but he kept insisting that he was right. He's worked at the same Verizon corporate store for 11+ years.(and I've known him for 6 of those years)

I sure hope he is just plain wrong.

That whole response to me seems like a load of crap. A cell company not carrying a flagship device with high marketshare? A loose analogy would be a Ford dealer not stocking Mustangs or a Chevy dealer not stocking Camaros/Corvettes. I agree with another post that says you should make a bet with him if he still insists on the point of them not carrying either phone. He gives you a free one if they do, you give X amount of money if they don't. But don't expect him to hold to his word if he takes the bet.

The HTC One will be the Droid DNA + and it will not be anything like the nice aluminum One we see on every other carrier. Sad to say but Verizon wants it their way and that means you don't get it your way.

I Have the Droid DNA and am very pleased with it,simply gorgeous 5 inch display,and handles everything i throw at it.

I wish I could have said the same about my Thunderbolt, glad to be rid of that phone long ago.

HTC and Verizon have come a long way since the Thunderbolt,just like Samsung has come a long way since S2.i am so glad i held out going with Verizon and leaving pre paid behind when i did,only 4 months till i can upgrade my rezound and it still works great,and i am pretty sure my DNA will also go the distance.

I have to agree HTC has come back from the old days of the Thunderbolt, but the issue with the HTC One is the UI, its just doesn't work for me, sealed battery non-expandable memory I want options and flexibility. Ideally I want a GS4 with 64GB and microSD card support.

64GB and microSD card support.

What on earth do you need that much internal/external storage for?

 

[Raptor007]

Well, I like to keep my entire music library with me that's about 16GB, Podcasts about another 18GB, take photo's, video's, have some of my 470 movies on my phone. Now if that 1TB microSD is available at a reasonable price I would take my entire iTunes library which sits at about 585GB. It would be nice.

Besides you can never have too much storage and if you have it you will use it and find ways to use it.

off topic but i see in your sig your selling your iphone 5. put it on ebay and or craigslist. you will easily get 550+ for that thing.

yeah, but most people don't need near that much and would rather have a cheaper phone so I can't see this in a phone, a phablet, yes, but not a phone.

Do you know what you could get for a 16GB iPhone 4S in mint condition, international GSM unlocked? I can go look myself, but if you know for some reason, that would save me some research time.

the iphone 4s would go for less. it depends on the condition. maybe $350.

I can think of many scenarios where you would need that much storage.. But for me, I have 32gb on board and 64 external on my gs3 and they are about 80 percent full each. I for one travel a lot and having all my music, photos, documents, and movies on local storage is "A MUST". Try streaming Netflix or even Google music on gogo in flight... You'll know what I mean. We're just not there yet where everyone can store everything in the cloud and stream everything all the time...

Verizon slashes the price of the S3

[smooth4lyfe]

Maybe that specific store is skipping it....that be pretty messed up though

 

[ibcop]

We all know Verizon is getting the S4 and not the HTC One. Let this thread die.

 

[Raptor007]

It will still take Verizon a month to unload stock before they do anything. Still no official word on the launch on Verizon and no word on pricing. Sorry I am set on moving to AT&T for my GS4.

 

[BoomBoomPAP]

Managers and sales associates usually lie about upcoming devices to get sales that day. "No one walks" is their MO.

 

[Joe the Insider]

Verizon already said their getting the S4. So end this discussion.
