A phone to control phone, then what is an actual purpose of having a phone??? How stupid, if you made a better camera or something instead then I would maybe consider buying your device.

what a waste product.

Suggestion : If u really want to create something good then try to make nice keyboard for typing messages or to play games. which i think quite useful for gamers & other keyboard lovers.

This device is so obsolete, if people want a handy smartphone then they won't buy anything beyond 5''. if you really need to control your phablet with Bluetooth then there are many cheeper and better alternatives out there. Btw, reading messages on this small screen sure isn't fun. So why bother with a second 'phone'?

HTC still has not a single f*cking clue what they are doing, if they continue like that I can tell that they won't be making their comeback in 2013.

It's a plus if it comes out with the package. But if you'll buy it separately then it's a minus.

quite good, if can also act as a tv controller, it will be a bonus. if the bluetooth range is good, it may replace house dect phone.

It would've made "Sense" had the butterfly been a 10" tablet.

I think it is actually pretty cool, but they should throw it in the package for free. It follows a trend were people are using their tablet for most of the things and do not need a smartphone which essentially does the same plus makes calls. So having a large smartphone plus a device that let's your read text messages and make calls is pretty cool. At least they try to come up with some meaningful implementation for NFC!

It's not so funny. Apple will do the same combination but with a watch.
