It’s rather puzzling though that HTC chose to hold a giveaway with its former flagship, rather than its current one. With the company’s future very much depending on the market success of the One (M8), one would think that it’s the new smartphone that the Taiwanese would want to keep in the public eye. Anyway, we wouldn’t mind having that One (pardon the pun) either, so if you’ll excuse we have some retweeting to do.

Good luck everyone!
