  • I think the battery cant hold the mobile bcz it has 1080p display and 441ppi. I love the overall mobile but what i dont like in this is only the battery. 2020mah isn't enough for this beast.

  • does it have pink issue ??????????

  • Hi, There are four variants to this device. 1st released in Japan, the HTC J Butterfly (HTL21), then other areas of Asia as HTC Butterfly (X920d) followed by Droid DNA (HTC6435LVW) in the USA and then came HTC Butterfly (X920e) for Russia and China. Differences? 3 version butterfly = waterproof Droid DNA no as it adds wireless charging , HTL21 & X920e have memory card, microsd, slots the other two do not, and obviously the networks they work on and cellular bands they support. Malaysian users, get Singapore version - x902d

  • It's possible the version would depend on the country. there are some countries that has x920e as the HTC Butterfly version. In Asian countries you might see it as x920d...

  • The HTC butterfly has types so the one without the sd card is the american version and is also called HTC droid DNA. But the actual butterfly has an sd card slot.

  • How to reset power during phone is hunting, power button, touch, are not working.

  • HTC Sync Manager is much more different than the HTC Sync software...

  • there's no prompt on how you would like to connect the phone to your computer. you'll also need to first install HTC Sync Manager to your pc first so that proper driver will be installed as well. Once you do that, your phone will automatically be detected as a mass storage device when you go to "Computer" for Windows 7 or 8/8.1...

I am unable to turn off mobile data on or off at few locations the data symbol doesnot go away and takes long time. At the same location other HTC phone desire 816 is able to access same Airtel network. But when I turn on tethering and when I use on tablet, the network stays on without any drop.

  • Go get the Xperia Z. you won't regret it. I use both Xperia z and Galaxy s4, in which the Xperia Z gives better performance, and forced be to give my S4 to my brother coz i found Xperia Z better. HTC butterfly has good display and a very cool UI, thats all i can say about the butterfly. I take my xperia Z outside when its raining and i can take pictures with it. I get good quality photos too.

  • if it is between the HTC one X and HTC butterfly, you should go for the HTC butterfly, as the HTC one x was released earlier than the Buttefly. It is more expensive than the HTC one X, because it has better specs, and the display of the htc butterfly is simply stunning and magnificent. I recommended the HTC butterfly to my friend and she was enjoying it, based on specifications and hardware. Goodluck, I hope this comment can help you

  • Yeah I support your opinion

  • Yes,I regret upgrading it to sense 5 cos the fonts and the lock ring is damn ugly. I live in Malaysia and guys u know how funny?? My AREA is at IPOH, PERAK and the only HTC SERVICE CENTRE is at KUALA LUMPUR. So if anything happen to my HTC, I have to take about 2 hours car drive plus waiting for the queue and waiting for the staff repair my HTC.

  • Guys, what do u think about the new software HTC Sense 5.5 with Android 4.3 OS after u all upgraded it?? Frankly say I do regret after upgrade my Butterfly to HTC Sense 5.0 with Android 4.2.2 OS cos the new fonts are sucks, previous one look more great.

  • update my butterfly a week.yesterday my phone suddenly cannot play any sound from gallery,youtube,ringtone.for call only vibrate.alarm also just vibrate.if i use ear phone sound come back ok.anyone has this problem?is't speaker prob?

  • i recently started using this phone, its awesome but sometimes the screen just goes blank and there is nothing i can do to get it back unless it stays blank until battery runs completely dead before i can start charging then after switch it on. its crazy,if it were other phones you just have to take battery out and put it back in and switch on then you are good to go but with this phone you cant take out battery which means you have be without phone for as long as battery will take to run out and the hours it will take to charge before you can use. i will be glad if someone can tell me how to rectify or remedy this situation. and by the way, is it normal that it takes so long to charge?

  • I have been using this phn since last May. After update the phone's screen doesnt turn off during charging. This is really annoying.

  • I really love this phone but the problem is that is too cost in my country negeria.

  • Do you need to keep backup of ur contacts before updating ?

  • Till Dec end it was 27k . I had bought in that price with 30 days replacement warranty. But now it is 34800 that too with 10 days replacement warranty. You will get it in Reliance digital Stores in Mumbai at 31k.. I did a 2 months hunt for this and finally got it from flipkart. At Reliance digital u will get the display piece. I think in whole mumbai only 3 black pieces and 2 white pieces are there..

  • Hey before updating I want to ask is there any problem occurring after the update ?

  • No buddy.. Till Dec end it was 27k.. I bought in 27k.. with 30 days replacement warranty. Now it is 34800 ..with 10 days replacement warranty... Mumbai mein it is available in 2-3 Reliance digital stores at 31k. But the black piece is a display unit everywhere.. the white may be sealed.

  • The phone is really awesome.But how come the 4.3 sense 5.5 update is not shown within the specifications?

  • every shop says this mobile has been discontinued, From where can I get it??

  • I know we just got the 4.3, but is 4.4 expected on this device? The droid DNA is getting it. Any chance us poor souls will get it?

  • Ha finally got 4.3 and sense 5.5 update in India. HTC rocks \m/..but nothing much in update just got zoe mode and music player updates thats it..although the phn is much smoother and faster..and i feel battery backup of butterfly is far better than One X...:)

  • can anyone tell how is the battery life? Coz within 4-5 hours its getting low

  • hell,how can I know the genuine htc butterfly, because the one I wanted to buy is made in china not in Thailand, is htc having it genuine branch in china, please help me to know the signs to easily recognize the original

  • Upgraded my butterfly today to 4.3+ & sense 5.5. I'm from Malaysia. Yeah, waited sometimes for this and not regreted choosen HTC. Nice phone with quality & solid like iphone.

  • Best phone i got, overall great. Display very crisp, sound great especially when use beats audio, battery live can stand 1 whole day. And software update fastest than others, just now got 4.3 + sense 5.5 ongoing update. Position Indonesia...

  • nope, i have the butterfly!!!

  • I just had my Sense 5.5 and Android 4.3 update on my Butterfly. Now I have Zoe and dont need the HTC One again. Most of my friends even prefer the Butterfly to the One. Its so durable after its many falls.

  • Htc butterfly is more powerful than iphone 5 with big full hd display grt battrry performens just go for htc butterfly good job htc

  • Seriously s4 is better on the processor but legging, I don't understand, HTC butterfly is better and until now I don't have any plan to change( until Z1 compact later because of camera capabilitiy ).I root s-off and upgrade to jelly bean 4.3 sense 5.5

  • Root, s-off and install rom boa 4.3 jelly bean.

  • After root s-off install rom boa jelly bean 4.3 Super smooth, not get hot anymore when using dataline, the best is battery can stay longer in one day. After 6 hours connect to wifi still have 40 % battery(initial battery is 95%)

  • I bought this phn one week ago.. but one problem is there with the image processing of this phone.. the images it shoots contains lot of grains nd lacks fine details.. how can i solve this problem..

  • Its the best phone ever made bu HTC. Its 2 GB Ram surfs super fast just at a click, Picture quality is stunning, Stunning Dispaly, Awesome looks, Its a must-have gadget for all smartest phone users.

  • Its the best ever phone made by HTC. Amasing graphics stunnung looks great deal

  • I m planning to buy a new phone but I m confused between lg g pro and butterfly.earlier I have s4 but the phone lags too much. Please anyone suggest which one to buy. I m little bit worried of camera battery and heating issues of butterfly.

  • Such awesome phone at 24500 Wow got blown away with screen sound n camera. Great HTC touchviz 5.0 wow man just wow. Such a cheap buy for a premium device. Thnx HTC n flipkart

  • Weird... I can connect without any problems. I didnt even install htc sync in pc. Pc can read the phone easily. Maybe check your pc setting or try another usb port on pc.

  • I forgot to say when connected to mobile data, yes, it gets hot easily. But not on wifi.

  • There are times it gets hot but very rare. Usually when playing online whike charging.

  • Something sure is wrong with your phone. Either software or hardware. Its impossible for the battery to drain that fast. Playing a heavy online game takes me at least 3 hrs to be used up with all syncing on. That happened to me before, i reset the phone and everything became okay. Sometimes, downloaded apps causes what happened to you.

  • Turn off your bluetooth and WiFi, cause when always on drain much. My butterfly battery can last for around 12hr without battery saver with normal usage (massanger, socmed, telp, browsing)

  • HTC Butterfly, is any day better than its competitors.... Amazing Camera and Sound quality. HTC's native widgets are all you'll ever need. You can customize it online (Theme, wallpaper etc.)... Its truely a great bargain at 30K.

  • Hey Guys,my butterfly drains battery too fast.I charge it to 100% but after around two hours,it is only 10% or 15% without using the phone.How can I solve this problem?Help!Thanks.sorry for bad English

  • if u want for performance and look than go to xperia z or htc butterfly,if u want to showoff then go to s4 but its performance is not good but its features r brilliant

  • this phone rocks.. after I upgrated than it became a monster.. I like the audio quality of this phone. it is much much better than wolfson dac phones; those are mostly known samsung galaxy s series and the others, such as iphones etc..! and I recently heard something about this butterfly which it can get usb out for delivering pure sound to the external dac such as fiio e17 etc..

  • Blindly go for HTC as this phone was launched for 46000 and didn't get sold due to it's high price compared to Xperia and now just for 30000to sell remaining stock

  • i m planning to buy this phone but i m worried about its camera and battery.Can anyone please tell me about its battery life and camera performance?

  • Can u help me abt htc butterfly n xperia z?which one is gud bz i'm confuse to buy but which one .which one is giving gud camera quality?my range is till 30000 so if anybody suggest me plz i'm waiting 4 thnks

  • i have this phone, yes it does heat up, and i mean it gets really really hot, with regards to performance i'm more than happy with it, but it's temperature really bothers me too, i hope i have helped you

  • Im planning to buy this phone..but since the battery is unremovable..im a bit confused..does the phone get heated up very fast like the nexus5? for how long does the battery last?

  • Has its production stopped?

  • no nfc in india?

  • With regard to getting hot, i dont know. But when i am downloading torrents and at the same time playing an online game or watching youtube while also charging, it does get hot. But not so much. Just a little hotness. And when it does, i let the phone rest for 5 mins at least and put it in front of an elec fan. Maybe somethings wrong with your phone. Why dont u reset.

  • Ram is so much better after update. Before the update, it only has about 800 free without any app running in background. After update it usually sits in 500-600mb so a lot of free ram.

  • It would ralways refresh when checking storage space. Also, maybe the app is causing this.

  • Maybe u have the droid dna, not the butterfly.

  • Havent experienced any. Before i play a heavy game, i do killrunning tasks just to be sure. U can do this by pressing menu key then slide every app away.

  • I wouldnt gamble. As phone is still a phone and a glass is still a glass. I would drop it for sure as the glass might break. Got caught in heavy rain and phone got wet. Nothing happened.

  • Yes. As of now if can only be upgraded to 4.2.2.

  • If u r on sense 5, no need to download battery indicator. Go to setting then power rhen check battery percentage. Amd yes the light in front would turn green if fully charged. Updated to sense 5 or not, light will turn green when fully charged.

  • No problem dude. Glad i helped.

  • Thank u

  • download battery indicator from play store. it will show u all.

  • Who evr u r I like ur review.....evn I watch naruto shippuden episodes on crunchyroll n I m plannin to buy this phone....I like to listen to music....n tanx to u gve me exact info tat I needed

  • I have been using HTC butterfly for the past 2 months, got it updated last month to sense 5 and sense 5 is much better than, sense 4+, only thing that hurts is the internet tethering worked fine with sense 4+ with sense 5, it dosent work well with market(extremely slow)but all other applications internet can be used with tethering, the UI is super smooth Samsung,Sony,LG.. no company has such a smart mature fluid UI,Battery life improves with update still not something to boast of will hang on a day, camera performance is just average sony,samsung dose better,Loud speaker is not loud enough, HDMI port is a real missing for those with HD TVs,the phone is very fast and there is consistency in performance,GTA Vice city,NOVA 3,REal Racing 3 lags but they are playable say average fps 20,In flipkart with diwali offer its available for 33.5k, DAMN! MUST BUY HTC ROCKS, HTC is the only brand that bridges the gap between android phone and an Iphone in user experience,If some1 is looking for Iphone 5c take a better look at HTC butterfly

  • No such problem since day one. You may bring back your phone to check with HTC support.

  • My Butterflly runs smooth with 4.2.2 and sense 5, but will it have update 4.3 like hrd one? Cause kitkat will come end of october

  • u can downgrade ur software at htc service centre

  • in top, right side of the power button there is a slot for sim and sd card together

  • pls some one tell me where is the micro SD card slot in htc butterfly

  • U cannot downgrade a software that has been updated. The only way is to root your phone and install the old software. A lot of tutorials on youtube and forums have been provided. Try searching the internet.

  • Open your messaging application. Tap the three dots, its beside the plus sign. Setting-general-baxkground

  • Is there anyone know how to downgrade Android 4.2.2 Sense 5 to previous one ? The look looks irritate for me, esp. fonts. previous one is way better. Ps. no back up before upgrade to Sense 5

  • I live in the U.K and HTC have just sent OTA update for HTC Butterfly. I have been dieing waiting for this. Thank u HTC, yupi!!!!!

  • Like how long or how much? Music doesnt eat up a lot of battery just for u to know maybe 1 hr is just 5-8%. this is on headset. Texting does not eat up a lot of battery too like u wont even notice that its decreasing. For videos, if charged to 100%, then i watch 3 naruto episodes, it ate up 18%. An episode is about less than 24 mins. My phone is set to 2/3 brightness and half volume. Phone running on 4.2.2 with sense 5. Phone nicely managed-no running apps on background and apps i dont use are disabled. And auto sync turned off. Hope this helps.

  • How much will its battery last me if just using music and texting and maybe a little bit of videos ?

  • Totally agree. HTC Butterfly....Best you can buy :-)

  • Hi I bought HTC butterfly last Friday and updated to sense 5 and the phone is uber smooth and flawless, no Samsung nor Sony can nearly come close to HTC level of perfection and sheer user experience. Only cons I find are battery could have been better, barely hangs on to a day and the camera is just average not worth any praises or not worth the hype, still for everyday usage it's ok, but sort from these gripes, HTC rocks Sent from my HTC butterfly

  • Is the htc butterfly water proof

  • See in that SIM slot in that only memory slot is there

  • Yes I agree but comparing to popular device like samsung galaxy s3, how does it fare? I find s3 battery very good for my usage, just for comparison only about battery ?

  • I find battery same as before. But i dont find it awful and quite similar battery life like other smartphones. its just fine for me and its because i know how to manage the battery life of my phone. Comparing this phone to others with bigger battery is just not right.

  • Of course, NFC is not present in HTC Butterfly

  • Is there battery life improvement with update 4.2.2 in HTC Butterfly, as of now battery life is awful

  • NFC+LTE only avaible for Droid DNA butterfly dont have that but have external storage. now with 4.2.2+sense5 battery saver work's very well day time average 50% remaining from 6am - 6pm night use for game and play video.

  • Hii i m from india and there is no nfc option in my phone

  • Hi butterfly users, please can anyone help me wid how i can open the memory card slot on this beautiful babe. Thanks in advanace

  • Seems that all of us from sea encountering the same problems with the kayboard update and all of us are from sea. Found no workaround as of the moment. Already tried every possible solution to no avail. Also heard from other people in our country received the update already for their one x+. The butterfly update was announced way before one x and one x+. Location: philippines

  • I'm from Thailand and I got the update too. But, my country has some problems on keyboard update. It can't install after downloaded and the second update still not available. Hopefully the update is coming soon!

  • Same goes to me. Tried install many times but failed. Anyone encountered similar problem and got d workaround pls share. TQ.

  • Im also afraid of not being able to update even if its available. Got a keyboard update but it doesnt want to install due to error.

  • I see. Thanks! How about the ram? Is it better now. I only have 1gb-1.1gb free with apps killed already.

  • there are no issues with the update as got cool new features

  • Im getting excited about this. In and ph usually receives updates at the same time. Wud greatly appreciate if u can let us know if there are problems within the update once you have installed it.

  • today got official update of sense 5 and android 4.2 In India

  • Not that im saying i dislike my butterfly. Its good and really happy with it. Im just saying there are better options.

  • I dont suggest any one of those two u mentioned. One x+ and butterfly are both old devices. 4.2.2/sense 5 would probably be their last update coz only few people bought it. There are a lot of better options out there.

  • I am gona change ma old note 1. I have 2 optns htc one x+ and butterfly Which should i choose.. Help me

  • Think we got the same updates. I too had the updates you mentioned. Im from philippines. Hopefully 4.2.2 with sense 5 will be rolled out asap.

  • I got an update too but not the sense 5/jb 4.2.2.. Its a package update of less than 2mb to install updates properly and a 6mb one for keyboard updates. Think we got the same update. Im from philippines.

  • Still dont have an update too of sense 5. I wonder what country is the dude from...? Those updates are old updates got it when i first bought the phone. Got 2 updates when i turned it on the first time.

  • May I know which country you from? I got 2 updates 1 is small package to update before the OS and 2nd is d keyboard updates. Yet to receive any notification that 4.2.2 can be downloaded even manually check.

  • received sense 5 update today but the servers are very slow it took forever to download it

  • received sense 5 update

  • just now received sense 5 update first 1.38mb and then 531mb but damn the htc servers are very slow

  • In terms of personal experience, im not happy with experia arc s. Thats my one and only sony device and didnt buy again. I had htc desire as my first smartphone. Up to now, it is still working without any problems. I upgraded to arc s to try catch up with specs but i didnt like it so i sold it and bought sensation xe. I tried galaxy s3 but i liked lcd screens more than amoleds so sold it. I now have the butterfly and i am really happy with it. With the arc s, it is not responsive enough at some games while the low spec'd htc desire can run it properly. I also dont like sony's ui and for me sense is way better. However, a lot of people dont like it. Others are complaining too that the notification area lacks a lot of shortcuts. What theybdont know is that htc is rich in quality widgets which would compromise the notification area shortcuts. I also hate scrolling with sony that ubaccidentally hit things but that doesnt happen with htc phones. If you are really torn between the two devices, there is a review made by gsmarena featuring those two battling each other with detailed descriptions and honest comments. For me, spec-wise, z wins. Better camera, battery and slightly faster. The big disappoint with z is its ugly screen.

  • Sony for multimedia? Butterfly for me has better speaker than sony. Music is very good both on speaker and headset.Very loud and clear. With regard to screen quality, there's no doubt butterfly wins again here. Sony screen is too dim.

  • Power button is at the top of the phone. Press and hold the power button then quickly press the home key to yake a screenshot.

  • HTC is always best and compare to other. But if you are a multimedia fan then u can go for sony

  • Ppower button is which one?

  • @fuzzydesigner; s3 doesn't come close to the butterfly at all

  • Could you give me hand? Which phone should I pick? Sony XPERIA Z or HTC Butterfly? I'm undecided about which one to pick... Just love both of them... Which one is better? Don't bring me specs , since I have already checked out the entire web... Based on your personal experience , etc. Thanks.

  • The only good thing that butterfly has over the one is it has card slot. One is better in everything else.

  • Obviously, the HTC One is superior in every department. It should be, because it's their flagship model.

  • help me?!? butterfly or one?

  • Ppwer button then home key takes printscreens

  • Anyone can teach me how to print screen by using HTC butterfly? or it cannot print screen? thank you^^

  • are you even sure?

  • Very true. The way they are handling global customers other than their home turf ie taiwan, its showing their partial behavior. Butterfly is the last HTC phone i am using...provided their behavious with non-taiwanese people

  • how to upgrade the OS from Android OS, v4.1.1 (Jelly Bean)to Android OS, v4.2.2 (Jelly Bean)

  • dude id like to tell you its android those apps are so common i assume your using symbian or java phones please go out from where you are the world around you is now so big for you to grasp ok? please....please....please

  • Is it really having a card slot???

  • The 4.2.2 with Sense was released months back to Taiwan, and now the update was released to HTC One X and X+ phones. However Butterfly phones with CID other than 621 (Taiwan) is yet to get the update. HTC continues to show its lack of understanding that good support and upgrades aids and reinforces customer loyalty.

  • Thanks really appreciate it. I have been desperate for this update since I knew it was coming to the Butterfly

  • yeah its water resistant IPX-5

  • Is there any difference between international and Myanmar version?is there any stupid extra apps?

  • Go to software update and update 4.2.2 jelly bean

  • I've spilled coke on my butterfly and luckily its still working. To think that almost 3/4 of the glass was poured onto it. So i think its water resistant.

  • Sorry, i am referring to update for philippines.

  • Htc chat support said that it'll be out 2nd or 3rd week of sept. I hope it will be really ready by then.

  • when will sense 5 and 4.2.2 arrive for this phone in the Philippines and Singapore? thanks

  • Why at the spec doesn't mention about IPX5 (water protection)...

  • Htc plz launch a big screen low price phone like samsung grand and sony xperia c

  • Iam from India cn sm 1 pls tell me when r v getting 4.2.2 update

  • after updating it, my front camera not working now after few days. My friend's also and occur on same day. She want to sell her now.

  • never update to 4.2.2 me and my friend's front camera became damaged yesterday, same day. and cannot use Myanmar font anymore.

  • I am in Cambodia, and I was waiting for sense 5 as well, but it never happened.

  • This phone wasn't released in EU and I'm Feed up waiting for update 4.2 + sense 5 in the U.K. looks like it's never going to happen. :-(

  • obviously not. Which era are you living in?? how can it support whatsapp? and viber, well forget it! buy a nokia 1100. it will support whatever you want.

  • Ofc dude..it's android :)

  • Good Sound Quality . Better than all..... Amazing sound ....

  • Those are apps that you can easily download from the play store for almost every phonw. I use both on my butterfly.

  • dats it support whatsap,viber etc?

  • I thought of that as well which is better one or butterfly. I really wanted the one especially the looks and all but got the butterfly instead and the main reason is because butterfly had a micro sd slot. I should've waited because the butterfly s is out and with a monstrous 3200mah battery. Im happy with the battery life of my butterfly but id be happier with the butterfly s. If internal memory isnt an issue with u, u shud get the one. If u r willing to sacrifice the looks for the battery get butterlfy s. Dont mind the normal butterfly. In terms of screen quality, hands down the one is better. It has the best screen of all.

  • batry cant removd.......only problm....

  • Typical 8mp camera. Whats good with htc cameras is it always has wide angles. Especially the front cam. Has wider captures compared to competition. 8mp cam on this one is good enough for me.

  • i am going to buy a HTC mobile,which is best among htc one & htc butterfly suggest me? now i AM using htc one s

  • Especially the screen quality. Butterfly's screen is awesome.It has the most beatiful screens available. Only next to the one. Ive never seen a phone display better than the one.

  • If the dual sim capability of desire 600 is not important to you, get the butterfly. Butterfly wins in every department over desire 600 except the dual sim and 64gb microsd card compared to only 32gb of butterfly but note that butterfly has 16gb internals compared to 8. It depends on u but if i were u id choose butterfly for it wins in almost every department. 4.2.2 with sense 5 for butterfly also out just waiting for it to be released in our country but no zoe. Didnt hear any news about 600 regarding an update. Only problem is that butterfly s is also out. Touch responsiveness of htc phones were never a problem. I like htc touch more than samsung and sony. I never accidentally hit things while scrolling compared to both.

  • Forgot to mention that the phone has great standby time for its battery.

  • i m confusd vich mobile to buy in htc htc desire 600 or htc butterfly and is d touch good of htc butterfly?? battery problm is d issue of every android phones coz of lots of apps. plzzzzzzz suggest me

  • For a 2020mah battery, you'll be surprised. For me, the battery life is great if u would be using wifi for internet. Not good if you'll be using 3g as main internet connection. Also, battery life of every phone depends on its user. If u know how to manage your phone, battery life would be a lot longer. U can also use launchers like nova launcher which makes battery life longer too but i uninstalled it because i missed the sense experience. Overall a very good phone. Speaker is better than s4. One of the best for music especially on headset. Camera is good enough for an 8mp, nice build quality, feels good to hold, doesnt heat up much.Just an example for battery, from 8pm at about 85% battery level then non stop internet using wifi-browsing, checking mails, playing online games battery would be around 45-55% at 11pm. What i dont like is charging time. Takes 2 hrs 30mins when completely empty.

  • good camera, good battery life, easy to use overall full satisfaction,

  • Very good phone, cons only for battery 1. Average battery live 14hr (many usage of chat 3G and internet, phone and massage) 2. Charging 2hr (phone turn off), 3hr if on condition 3. Very good display. overall I love the phone, and waiting for update 4.2 + sense 5

  • i saw your opinion. could you tell me pls what is the battery life of this phone?

  • Camera is fine. Typical 8mp. And please use gsm arenas compare picture. U can see it in specs so u can see for yourself.

  • i wanna but this htc butterfly,then how bout the camera?

  • Anyone who already has the new update? How is it? Whats new?

  • are u sure it isnt 8mp?

  • i love htc butterfly. i cant say bad about this phone. internet is so fast. long battery life and nice graphics for playing movies and playing games. this is very good. try it for you to experience. :P

  • The 2020 mah on this butterfly phone is just fine. Honestly, i expected it to be not good enough but i was surprised. For example, i charge the phone 100% at the morning then go to office. i leave home at around 8am Have 10-15 text messages, a total of 1 hour of on and off wifi usage on internet. Then reach home at around 8pm. The battery would be at around 82-88%. Note that the internet usage of 1 hr is wifi. If mobile data was used, it would be much lower.

  • Hi i would like to buy htc butterfly. could you tell me what is the battery life of this phone? how many hours we can use once full charged?

  • Thats a lie,the camera is 4MP not 8

  • is it have android 5.0

  • Finally, HTC had released the JB 4.2.2 for Taiwanese users. Waited so long for this and hopefully they will release soon for the rest of countries. Well done and please keep up the good work.

  • How is battery life? full day? I am very interesting I just concerning if the battery life is to short.

  • Tecno F7 is more advance...

  • this phone is water resistant IPX5

  • Tecno N7 and Tecno F7 which is more advanced?

  • Why settle for something only ok when you can reach for a better one. Not every people is like you.

  • I dnt knw why people love wasting money wen there are substitute at cheaper price. I wnt u guys to check on gionee e3,e6,tecno n7 nd f7, these fone are awesome @ a low budget price which can equally serve u best with a guarantee. Am presently using tecno Q1 which is an android 4.0.4 phone wit 1ghz dual core cpu which I bought @ a cheaper price. Wise up guys

  • I dnt knw why people love wasting money on fone dat u can get the substitute for a cheaper price. U guys can check on gionee e3,e6,tecno f7 dey offer same specification at low price, these fone ar awesome. Am using tecno Q1 wit ics android OS wit1ghz dual core at low price nd am enjoying it.

  • My HTC butterfly screen is going off and on, the volume just stopped working and I just got thus phone may 15.

  • Have had this phone since last Xmas. A gift. I like it. No lag time. Fast web access. Good battery mgmt software. Battery lasts twice my previous S3. There's a reason why the battery capex remained same. My best so far.

  • try papago m11.at google play.

  • Why not consider checking the specs before buying a phone.

  • my butterfly is tooooooo goooood!!!!

  • papago cannot be install in my butterfly due to resolution to high..any way to install??

  • True. I havent used AMOLED for the same reason. I shall better experiment the phone before buying. Thanks.

  • Nope! Mine is perfect.

  • Dear All! I bought three HTC Butterflies yesterday and all have one or more dead pixels and bright white dots (can be clearly seen on black background). Then I went to HTC showroom and replaced new but unfortunately again got the same issue. Any of you face with the same issue like mine???

  • wow with the price of 30k php..u can already buy a durable 13mp lte 2gb quad core android phone with a lesser price..even by that time the s4 was still not released in the philippines

  • Not a Sprint CDMA PHONE and a tiny, tony battery. Go away

  • It's very power full phone.

  • In short, you should be the most unfortunate one. No LTE is the fact and you should knew it before purchasing the phone.

  • I am a current owner of an HTC Butterfly. I acquired this phone last February 6, 2013 (obviously my phone is under warranty). I was extremely impressed with the aesthetics, the screen resolution and the processor speed. I was a little annoyed however with the fact that the phone was not LTE ready and the battery was a measly 2020 mAh. In spite of that I even recommended your dual-sim Android to my brother-in-law since he needed one. Last April I noticed that the left hand trim on the phone started to come loose. It seems that the quality of the adhesive used was poor. I tried using your website but it is rather difficult to use. Eventually I found out that you only have one repair center in the Philippines. I even managed register my phone (case 13PHCW19ENA000465). Since I did not have the time to bring the phone to your service center I managed to repair the trim myself with regular 3M double-sided tape. I did not have time since I had a trip to the Netherlands. I managed to compare it with another flagship phone that my mother recently bought. (Not an HTC. After my experience with this phone I strongly discouraged my mother from getting any HTC product, she takes my recommendation since as she puts it she is a digi-dinosaur). After the issue with the trim was fixed your service center called weeks after to follow-up. I told them I fixed it with double-sided tape. I was ready to do-with and let-go the previous defect. However last June 7, 2013 the screen on the phone inexplicably flickered and wouldn�t work. As it stands the phone is broken. I have never dropped the phone nor mishandled it. I have never rooted the phone. It seems that the build quality is incredibly lacking for a phone worth $700.00. (Php30,000.00). Your competitors have already come out with Aluminum Casing and glass sandwiched 5-inch phones. It seems that the HTC One was created in response to this (durable aluminum casing). That begs the question, was the HTC Butterfly released just to satisfy a market but neglected build quality? I know that you cannot satisfy all of your customers but your company will never beat the other phone manufacturers at your current state. Please consider the following points: � As of January 2013 the standard for a flagship phone worth more than $600.00 should be: o Aluminum Casing/glass sandwich/Kevlar (or any durable material which is NOT plastic) o A high capacity battery level. A 5-inch quad core phone should NOT have a battery less than 2400 mAh. o The phone does have good screen resolution at 441 ppi. o LTE as standard. � More service centers in South-East Asia. � More service centers in Europe. � A better research, DESIGN and development team. (Please compare your HTC One design language to Blackberry Z10. Another lemon of a phone. Both phone look too alike.) � A company commitment to durability. To get a feel of how lacking the service is and how much work the company needs in quality please refer to this website.

  • Hope you can transfer your applications to SD when you update to v4.2.2;-(

  • relax..it's normal and rare happen almost to all smartphones nowadays...try to restart or reset will be better..seems like application instruction faulty..

  • i suggest you go to HTC center..more meet then the eye..HTC always giving high quality product..don't trust anyone unless you see for yourself..Although butterfly are LCD not AMOLED but for the 1080p i choose HTC due their realistic effect..AMOLED just for shiny day above the sun.

  • don't be biase...HTC phone always the harder to cracked better then samsung...either you trying to be jerk or sammy fans.

  • No NFC And wireless charging in india, but still its good mobile...Love Htc

  • The Butterfly is the best phone I had yet. Just waiting for the Sense 5 update.

  • Good news for htc one owners they'll be getting a 4.2.2 update. I wish, we, butterfly owners would get the same update. I'd like to see an extended quick settings menu and the battery percentage indicator.

  • one drop from ~1m and screen cracked...

  • If a phone is not taken care of, no matter what brand it is, glass would break. It also depends on how it fell and what surface it fell into. No matter what, lesson is do not drop a phone. Glass shatter? If there is a phone that fell into a hard surface without the glass being shattered, i'll buy it for sure.

  • I've dropped once and I thought the screen will break. My one no issue and I believe this is due to my silicon housing which safe me from ~3feets dropped and the screen was also faced down.

  • The scree breaks so easily, otherwise great phone

  • used butterfly for a month now.. everything about this phone is good..but seriously...battery life really sucks...really2..bad...wats the point of having a great phone if we cant use it due to the lacking of power n juices... really killed the phone entirely..disappointed with HTC stupidity...offering only 2020mah battery on a high performance smartphone like butterfly... WHAT THE HELL WERE U GUYS THINKING...U CHINESE PREEK...seriously plan to change my butterfly to HTC One..but im still have my doubts on HTC battery lifespans..although there are few good reviews about HTC one and its battery juices... CAN ANYONE GIVE ME MORE DETAILS ON HTC ONE'S BATTERY PERFORMANCES OR CONFIRMED THAT HTC ONE'S BATTERY LIFE HAS MUCH BATTER IMPROVEMENT...?? THX...

  • Fantastic phone and also dashing

  • This is the best phone. I love HTC.

  • This is the best phone. Waiting for sense 5 update for it. It would be fantastic. Highly recommended for you to go for it.

  • Anybody please help me with build quality . I have read many users saying that it is weak.. Coz display shattered unexpectedly.. Is this true?? My sis is using HTC desire Hd since 3 YEARS.Not a single comcomplain.. Except the updates.. Hardware is awesome... Please somebody help me with this query.. Thanks

  • This is a highly underrated phone, deserves more love.

  • It would be great to have the external memory size up 64GB card slot, just like sony xperia z

  • THIS is what HTC One should have been. Too bad you can't buy it almost anywhere.

  • I'm using this phone since early Feb 2013 and never encounter phone hang or reboot by itself issue. No worry. This phone is my 3rd HTC phone which my last swiched from iPhone and blackberry. I'm satisfied this phone for its quality and battery life is much better than my iPhone.

  • One phn in my life i've seen in android world with no major problems nd bad reviews frm uzers.. I gonna get dis fo sure..

  • Gsmarena scored butterfly a 45hr endurance rating in its battery test. U can read it from the butterfly vs experia z review. For one and s4

  • Best phone i have ever used in my whole life.

  • Is this phone has a nfc for indian market?

  • Hey.. i am confuse for which smart phone buy???? I have 3 choice htc one htc butterfly and galaxy s4 but i want to know that the bettry life of butterfly becouse its a 2020mAh that so l m littlebeat worried but i like its all thing like display sound all features so plz give me ur opinion...

  • owning this phone for about 2 weeks now. its perfect!!! the display is just amazing, camera is pretty good, its super fast even with 20 apps open and playing games. battery life is pleasing. using wless all day, facebook, surfing the net, playing games and it lasts for sure the whole day and another half. definately worth it!

  • It is a Waterproof Divice ?

  • it's also a water protected device.

  • It is not a dual SIM phone.

  • I have been using the butterfly since february 2013 after having used Note2, the S3, S3 mini, so understandably I am used to the samsung android environment. Anyhow, the experience of using it have been great, the display, the camera especially. Battery wise as usual with OTHER phones as well, using android with massive display needs either a large battery capacity OR just buy an external battery which we can just plug in on the go. I can understand the butterfly having a small capacity by its display size standards, not compromising the 'slim' factor. The battery issue was more or less the one that I had with the Samsung S3 as well. HOWEVER, the past few weeks, I have been experiencing 'SD removed unexpectedly' notifications, time and time again, even though I am not removing it by force nor I dropped or hit the phone that might have affected the integrity of the SD mechanism. IF i were to remove the sd card, i use the safety of using settings-unmount, so i beg your understanding. This intermittent notification is making me crazy. Just beware. I take a lot of photos and luckily enough the butterfly has 16GB worth of storage. I am using 32GB Sandisk SD card by the way and the notifications still persists even after I changed to another memory card. Does anyone have the same issue?

  • It is not a dual SIM phone.

  • Is it dual sim GSM + CDMA dual standby handset? Is it available in Bangladesh?

  • The Butterfly's design and screen are great...just great. You'll love it. I've not regretted buying it and you wont.

  • Mmrjg, desire has bigger screen at the same resolution, so u can see more graphics information on it, without loosing any visible quality bcause of high ppi which is much greater than the human unarmed eye can recognize(300ppi). Fashionable design and Gorilla Corning Glass 2 makes their job.

  • I buyed htc butterfly in singapore, can any one tell me where to buy offical external battery(3000 or 6000mah) for htc butterfly x920d(international Version) in india.

  • hi guys i wanna buy one of these nice and pretty cool phones....HTC ONE OR BUTTERFLY i know their specification and their hardwares equip and .... but the only things that i doubt about it is the butterfly's screen and its design... i thanks so much to know your ideas...help me please and please tell me your experiments and reasons... i appericiate

  • htc butterfly best custom rom

  • Does anyone experience when exiting an apps like wechat,whatsapp,fb or browser need to press the back button for 5-6 times. Sometime its really annoyed me. Not that frequent but sometimes it do once a while. Currently on stock rom with newly updated firmware. Any sollution will be helpful. Thks.

  • the 1 one is true

  • the image of this phone is same as given

  • DEARS, I'm planning to buy this phone in a couple of weeks, but before that, I just want to clarify myself. I'm very keen on details that's why I've noticed a different HTC butterfly images. I have here 2 links: 1.) 2.) Can you tell me what's the difference on the 1st link with only camera and flash? Unlike to 2nd link with camera, flash and the unknown thing? THANKS GUYS :)))

  • To all HTC lovers. I must say that the Butterfly is awesome. I am connected to Telstra in Melbourne Australia and I am pulling up to 25mb per second download. So why worry about 4G. In addition to the 16gb internal memory I have installed a 64gb micro sd card which works like a charm. So one would ask why go for a limited 32gb HTC ONE when the Butterfly kills it in looks, build, and some specs. Awesome Phone and highly recommended.

  • ya 1100 the KIng of communication like it love it

  • Its price slashed in India.......only 40k i must go for it over htc one

  • cost is not reasonable for the specifications it has it will be good if the price is around 18-20000 rupees

  • Yes, it'll receive an update to new Android version with Sense 5.

  • does htc can be upgrade to sense 5ui??same as the htc one start screen

  • I got my international version through amazon last three days. But its without LTE though...I got the X920d

  • I got my HTC butterfly last Monday and its been a great experience. I'm in love with the display and the battery of 2020mAH is just adequate...I charged it fully last night and with my data on I still have 30% battery power. All in all, its about how you use it. Everyone is in awe after seeing the phone so I'll advise you to go for yours now.

  • HTC butterfly will support Internet calling like Skype, Nimbuzz, Nymgo

  • HTC have done some remarkable improvements: - great battery life - great wifi reception - speaker sound highly improved - in call sound quality and volume also improved - fassssst but the build quality is a bit deceiving, HTC could have done a better job on the build quality. the device is a bit tall, theres some usless space on the top and bottom borders of the screen

  • Yes it is in univer cell

  • Gsmarena, please add all 3 models of Htc butterfly specifications, HTL21, X920d, X920e. Thanks.

  • HTC Cmpany, Please post all information on your site about all 3 models of butterfly, except DNA of course. GSMArena, please add all this 3 models specifications on your site. It's very confused which one have sd card, which one has wireless charging, which one is for China, Japan, Europe. Thanks for your cooperation.

  • can anyone tell me why HTC butterfly in singapore don't not come with LTE ?

  • battery is excellent and camera is much better than xperia Z

  • butterfly is better than htc xplus

  • you're blatantly a lie even many reviewers can tell that LCD is natural but super amoled are animates. Have you ever played around LCD 3?

  • LCD 3 is good, but still, it cannot match the awesomeness of deep blacks of Super Amoled Screens

  • This is a great phn. . . . .but heated immediately when we use butterfly

  • Since I knew you, you have never known the word appreciation. it's bad... I'm using this phone battery is good...

  • I'm using the phone yet I dont have any problem with the battery do you use the phone?

  • Guys, does this phone support micro sd card??? Because I've seen in many websites it's supported, from other sources it's not supported. Or models of this phone are different? Thanks.

  • solid explorer... the best for me.

  • World in my palm baby! HTC user here since forever. I never had problems with all of the handsets that i've got from htc. Camera, sounds, clarity its always does it's job. What i like about Htc marketing is that they dont brag. You'll just notice it, and you'll be surprised that you'll get more of what u expected. I'll be looking forward to the next handset that i'll buy from htc, next to my htc butterfly. HTC, quietly brilliant it is. ;-)

  • HTC butterfly is the bestest one. experia z is hopeless .so poor nd old UI

  • i want htc butterfly... but it is not available in kerala...

  • shubh offcorse sony xperia z is better then htc butterfly

I have NIKON DSLR for camera and external batery also car charger and usb charger when i in emergency :-)

  • hi guys... pls i need some help i want to know which is better xperia z or htc butterfly in terms of performance,battery,CAMERA.

  • its screen is only water resistant

  • Great News HTC Butterfly Is Water proof IPX-5 certification............HTC Kings Of Smartphone

  • Its true, compared to One X / One X+ camera is much worse. But then I think poor camera and rest all awesome is a part of hTC legacy ;)

  • Unlocked means you can use it with any carrier i.e. the phone is not locked with a particular carrier - say Vodafone / AT & T blah blah blah.. :)

  • Guys anybody aware, if this is a water proof? I can't test my one and only, so plz don't ask me to experiment !!!:)

  • Butterfly camera is brilliant under good lighting conditions, OneX+ camera is good even in the low light. Now you can see not much difference.

  • I have heard that it's camera quality is not at par witth that of HTC ONE X+. Any suggestions.

  • You're right its very cheap but it's unlocked. And I don't know what it means when they phone is unlocked. Can someone unearth the reality behind UNLOCKED.

  • best quality, best performance, best in friendly use.

  • HTC Butterfly is best gaming play

  • R4000 is pretty cheap, thats like AED 1500. In Dubai, UAE its probably gonna cost AED 3500 somewhere around R9000, USD 951.

  • you should do some research i think.

  • htc is feel like me king of the world

  • my mobile is incradible.

  • I love my mobile

  • This phone has all good quality in tee msn of all specifications But still why it's not popular in market. Does it shows lack of mkt about th8s beautiful phone

  • If you don't like it, then gimme your HTC Butterfly and go buy an xperia Z. Come on, I'm not kidding!

  • dude iphone is iphone....dont compare it with any androids..

  • According to HTC south Africa is not coming but I bought mine online here in the country worth R4000,00.

  • the different is not much except snapdragon 600 and blinkfeed and zoe and ultra pixel apart from that they are the same... I love my butterfly no problem thus far... HTC my whole world

  • sony xperia z is good

  • am using butterfly am not happy with camera quality display clarity and all my friend using xperia z its very good clarity of camera display i like the xperia z design

  • am using butterfly am not happy with camera quality display clarity and all my friend using xperia z its very good clarity of camera display i like the xperia z design

  • i am planning to buy a smartphone but i am confused .. samsung galaxy note 2 or htc butterfly . . please help thanks

  • I have this phone. It's the best phone I've ever used except for the battery stamina. It is good but not great. I mean, it can make it a day but you should limit your playing time if you're a gamer and you should shoot videos in a limited time coz the battery will drain that fast. Overall, this phone is very good and descent. If you can wait for the ONE then wait. If not, consider this or the X+. HTC is a great company.

  • Been using mine for 2 months now, no battery problem, fast browsing, beautiful screen, social network integration, sense ui etc. Absolutely love my butterfly!

  • Yes this is better than htc One/OneX+ 1080 px density with 441 px density is absolutely a treat to watch out.

  • when will it be in south africa mtn store and which one :(

  • Is this better then the new HTC One ?

  • I been using butterfly for about a month. I would say it is a really improve version of HOX. Battery life I can feel a minimum of 30% improve,browsing speed is faster than sensation and one X.

  • I been using butterfly for about a month. I would say it is a really improve version of HOX. Battery life I can feel a minimum of 30% improve,browsing speed is faster than sensation and one X.

  • I've used HTC for almost a year now, but I absolutely love it. I am just not a fan of samsung otherwise I might have considered the S4. I'm considering a change, but I'm not sure the HTC butterfly is that much different than my Sensation XL. Should I just wait for the HTC one?

  • Till last year I used htc mobile majority. I don't know why I switched to Samsung, but with in a year I changed three models, note to note II and sIII, I can't keep the SIII for atleast 2 weeks, but it's not a bad mobile, But I can't get satisfied with any other manufacturer. The main reason is the build quality and the innovation which never makes me tired of htc. Well done htc.

  • buy HTC butterfly beautiful phone... I like it

  • Don't ever try to be a comedian.... Get life.....HTC butterfly it has all that I wanted in a phone as I'm using it...

  • You are right, once i use HTC , from desire, desire hd until now one x+, i'm not planning to change others brand even i've try my friends Samsung, IPhone n etc.. still HTC the best

  • You are right, once i use HTC , from desire, desire hd until now one x+, i'm not planning to change others brand even i've try my friends Samsung, IPhone n etc.. still HTC the best

  • I recently take this phone on a plane.guess what..the side sticker which inside the side gap came out after the flight..i had to manualy insert it back which is soo hard..now my phone has a little bend on the side bcoz of the damage..i think butterfly cant handle the pressure while flying then only the sticker came out...hmmm guess have to switch to htc one.zerogap...

  • wrong samsung is s4 is flop

  • what about the battery life? since it is non-removable. bcos i've had issues with HTC battery life on my present fone.

  • hey is it worth usin htc butterfly???? presently i m usin htc one v....its goin good... shud i switch 2 butterly??

  • S4 is crap in front of butterfly's build quality.

  • As mega pixels wise resolution is bigger in Butterfly than HTC one. But HTC one using 1/3 sensor for the camera. So picture quality wise this sensor is lot better than normal phone camera sensor. If you are not going to print something huge so 1/3 sensor with 4 mp is better.

  • In Nigeria go get Chinese mobiles,you will get problems with spare parts.

  • Wait and get Samsung S4 for this amt.

  • Wait and get Samsung S4 for this amt.

  • the best feature is beats audio....

  • Is it HTC butterfly camera is better than HTC one??

  • I concur with you. HTC my brand

  • HTC One X+ And my new HTC Butterfly are doing exceptional well... Well Done HTC... HTC for life no matter what...

  • I have used a number of HTC phones (Wizard (imate K-Jam), Touch, Tytn II, Touch pro 2, HD2, Desire HD, Sensation, Amaze) they have all been very perfect. in fact never a dull moment with any of the htc phones i used.

  • how many types of color it has?

  • It's without doubt, Jan it was released, and within a month One was launched, shows helplessness of HTC, in their financials 40% down, the One is suspended, shortage of parts. Price Tag 900$ too much fr too little. Open up ur eyes, why this is happening. Obviously market Chinese 1080 sets fr 145$ avail, on gsmarena read.

  • finally i got htc butterfly...............awesome hai

  • The experia may hold a TFT screen but its full IPS backed up with sony's patented bravia display technology. Please don't comment unless you know what you are talking about.

  • htc is always great, just try to use it then u ll see how much u ll like this brand,other hand htc always made a great quality phones, by experience :)

  • Did you know butterfly have water and dust resistance..duh ipx5..just admit it xperiaZ are just TFT display save by bravia engine..that's all..Butterfly in other hand are Equipped with LCD 3 which are compete to Retina and Amoled.

  • right mr. only hTC!!!!!!!!

  • U can't compare any phone with htc..

  • HTC phones are awesome .........basic phone of HTC beats camera clearity of note 1 n any other brand.......ones u use HTC never shifts to other brand......its my personnel experience must try HTC once pls pls

  • u r right bro. HTC is d best.

  • Have been using the butterfly for 3 weeks now. Battery and camera are working fine. Only problem is the volume buttons in the side, it is a bit flimsy and easy to spoil. My volume down button does not work, need to send it to the service centre. Overall no problems with the butterfly.

  • HTC Butterfly for 132,000 Naira? How the hell will someone purchase the device. For the same spec, Samsung Galaxy S3 goes for 88,000 Naira.

  • Guys, yesterday it is reported 40% decrease in revenue, and One has partd shortages, whats the prices demanding so much, Htc is gone unlrss it merges with sony anyhow.

  • To be honest, you will know only when you start using the HTC products. It still lags behind the top model only in the marketing department. If HTC would been doing marketing like its rival, then it would have been different now. I wonder why this wont strike the dumb HTC people.

  • format to fat32 is supporting 64GB

  • For those who had their HTC Butterfly for a while now, please answer me, how's the camera? The external speaker?

  • External slot support 64GB although manual says support up to 32GB. need to re-format b4 use.

  • Just comparing the specs , the xperia z is more compact but 6 gms heavier.It has a larger battery 2330 vs 2020. waterproof, dust proof. Rest of the specs are pretty much the same. Now comes the pricing 46000 vs 39000. What do you get for 7000 extra? HTC as a brand still lags behind Sony and Samsung.

  • No battery problem as how other people provided their review. The battery last better than iPhone 5 n my ealier BB9860. Performance I'm happy with it.

  • you are wrong. HTC butterfly costs INR 46000/- don't know abt xperia. Soon butterfly will go for a price cut may be 3 to 4k. People who wants to stand out in the crowd will go for butterfly, its a real head turn product.

  • no dual sim and such huge price!! wats HTC thinking!!!

  • Bro ! Butterfly is lighter sleek and quite durable than Xperia Z! watch out their comparison vids on youtube plus there are 4 variants of butterfly according to areas.. Deluxe, Droid DNA, Butterfly J, Butterfly! Deluxe in European markets, Droid DNA in US, Butterfly J in Japan and Butterfly in India! HTC give its unique sense UI touch which brings glory to its handset in itself. Xperia Z is still under testings as it seems to have many bugs. Anyone can launch product but sustaining product is something HTC knows! Watch out for it's One latest handset hardware now and technology it is coming up with you will learn more about HTC

  • The butterfly is priced at Rs 49000 and xperia zl is Rs 39000. Who on earth will buy the butterfly? What is HTC thinking?

  • Hey it seems you are envy of butterfly!!

  • Uhm does anyone know which carrier is for the HTC Butterfly?

  • HIC quality is more than the Apple Phones. My HD2 was purchased 4 years before, still running very good and the clarity matches so many latest generation phone, what they are talking about pixel density.

  • If you are acquainted to HTC there's no way you can compare HTC to Sony. HTC does competes with IPhones and samsung galaxy S2/S3/S4. I own butterfly it is the best handset so far...

  • htc butterfly price cut is expected soon, they should match with sony Xperia z model.

  • Xperia is a over hyped model. Not worth at all. you can check you tube and gsmarena review, screen angles are not good, camera is not good for a 13mp. But the build and display quality-I assure no one can beat htc.

  • Xperis Z is launched today with price tag of 39 k...now wht will HTC people do now....although i,m HTC fan but i have to think now !!!

  • Me n husband has been using this for 2 weeks. No complaint at all.. battery can last 8-10hours. I'm a heavy user. whatssapp, fb, insta all the time. Love the camera and video mode. I have tried note II, samsung so many s version, but htc never failed me. been using sensation for almost 2years before changing to butterfly. and there is no problem to change to butterfly .i can even sold my sensation for rm500..

  • read my opinion once again, mr.smart. In fact I sold my 3 months NoteII in order to get this butterfly.Now you know at least I am not a Samsung fanboy.

  • not every HTC phone has a battery problem I talk experience. unless you're one of those who is on the wichhunt of demeaning and degrading the companies name. we don't generalize when we speak but be specific which model.

  • So what do you insinuate I think you're bored. if you don't have something to say in this HTC forum. go and play with your ugly plastic samsung.

  • Well, all the positives are told, now the only one negative should be told. Its the caners, really sucks, I do own a noteII, comparing to its performance, htc camera is a shame, especially the HDR mode is terrible. Video is on par with noteII.

  • Its been three days since I bought this gorgeous phone. I am a moderate user, the battery life is excellent [against all the complaints] the display is wonderful, no one can beat the display and build quality of htc. whites are not blue, whites are white. from any angle the display is the same. thanks htc, looking forward for the sense5 update.

  • Hi all, Any body know if this phone will arrive to Kuwait? Thanks

  • go for htc one

  • In addition HTC going to release sense 5 update for one x, x+ and butterfly. That's awesome!!!!!

  • Go for butterfly, its worth the money. Design, looks, performance,battery life atleast more thn iPhone 5

  • sb keep saying, HTC battery is low performing is it true HTC designer?

  • HTC never learn through mistakes. HTC fans complaining about poor battery life. Even though they manufacturing low capacity battery phone.

  • HTC never learn through mistakes. HTC fans complaining about poor battery life. Even though they manufacturing low capacity battery phone.

  • HTC butterfly

  • Here is my judge on HTC butterfly Positive Nice screen Reasonable size and wight Negative Samsung camera is better than HTC camera in pictures Unlike alot of saying battery sucks I found it OK live for 5hours of use its almost the same of s3 maybe better Alots of complaints about battery maybe because they don't charge it full first time before use Its mention in htc guide book

  • Should i go for iphone 5 r htc butterfly?coz i m worried abt d battery life f htc buttetfly aftr watchin d reviews..btw i m n xtreme user..waitn for ur reply:-)

  • This is the International Version of HTC Butterfly. This is not HTC J Butterfly or HTC Droid DNA. Thats why you can see that Both 4G and NFC are market dependent.

  • Nice phone, but how do i get it.Currently in Liberia, how do i order it please advice thanks.

  • It is perfect ,I want it too much ,and I am just waiting to have it.

  • which one better...NOTE 2 or HTC Butterfly?

  • guys this device is international or belong to a particular company

  • Me too....updating now the new system update 1.12.707.1. In short, this phone is much better when compared to my wife iPhone 5. The battery life is about the same to iPhone 5 as well. So far, no complaint on this phone except to wake up the phone must use the top button. Overall, this is excellent phone to me after my last BB 9860. yahooooo

  • htc butterfly is amazing phone and its looks osome

  • amazing smartphone i never see such type of phone and its looks osome

  • What's the sar rating of this phone?

  • I update to software version 1.12.707.1 this morning..improves a lot from previous ver..thks htc!

  • go for htcccc

  • go for galaxy note 2...it resolves everything....offering thing in less expensive rate than the phones u mentioned..Or wait for another two or three months... S4 and Google long waited project named Xphone are soon to appear on the scene....rest is ur choice... god bless u..

  • Holla everybody the only item's that HTC need to improve is.the battery that need to charge twice per day, and also the phone getting heat very fast other wise its the best

  • hi again ... thanks guys i finaly made it ...iPhone 5 ... Its awesome i hope you all get what you want ...thanks for the offers..

  • Hi Guys, phone design is good but camera quality is not up to the mark for a phone with this price range especially night mode photos are very worst...otherwise everything is good.mainly display clarity and HD Videos....So better opt HTC One hopefully HTC might have improved the camera performance..ultrapixel...

  • hey guys it s just 3 day from now i have bhougth this phone i really loved it the way they designed,the picture clarity is so suprb the screen with full Hd is quiet awesome and the speed of the phone is simply superb but here comes the issu for such a big the battery can still be improve,i dont say it as worst as iphone or sony ion or samsunglaxyS3,and for the price they could have give a good head phones as the present one are not to the mark including with beats audio amplification they could have give beats headphones like they have done it for one X the battery can be imrpoved to 2200mah so that it will with stand for 3g operations verywell but all i can say this is not phone or tab this is PHABLET AND JUST AWESOME I WILL RATE IT 8.5/10 WORTH BUYING Then iphone 5 especially sony Z bb Z10

  • its relay good phone bt price is tooooooooo much ..............more than i phone 5

  • i phone5 or try for bb10...both btr than d rest

  • chose htc one

  • Go for HTC butterfly or wait for htc one

  • definitely HTC Butterfy,but if you more like smaller devices then iP5,Xperia Z suck,believe me,screen contrast and viewing angles are damn bad..iP5 is also amazing phone but i'll choose Butterfly :)

  • Yes..most smartphone nowadays are like that..if u using phone for long hour better go inside cold temperatures room.

  • Well depends which country you are from.. If Butterfly Taiwanese don't have it and no SD slot but if Japanese version have all

  • Yes same as to iphone5

  • Go HTC butterfly LCD3 display and the speaker are from Dr beats technology(loud speaker and plug earphone)..xperiaZ are just lame with TFT display!..if u don't mind big screen and spec go iphone5..

  • first of all, the iphone 5 is not as good as the sony z or the butterfly. that should help your decision. i own an iphone 5 and it is garbage. same this as 4s but more expensive.

  • go for xperia z

  • Hey guys plz help me. ..I can't choose between ip5, htc butterfly and xperia z plz help me with this. and I know if I buy one of these phones I can't change it for at least 2 years...I'm counting onyou guys..ty

  • Dude, there should be LTE, unless the telephone company decided to take it off.

  • No dude it doesn't have beat headphone but its sound is amplified by beat

  • hi guys ...plz if anyone purchased this phone plz tell did it have beats headphones in the box? Ty!

  • this htc is waterproof n dustproof?

  • HTC Butterfly does not have NFC and LTE it shocked me because I have purchased it and I have known this after purchasing.

  • wow awesome... features...... dare is no comparision to the gelaxy ... of Samsung

  • sexy 4n

  • Got my HTC j butterfly....its awsome.

  • when will it avilable in india???

  • note 2 is the best one! all you can say is plastic! very nice anallysation, he he! of course if you are 10 y.o.! imho!

  • Is it normal for my htc butterfly feels hot at the back when use it directly for quite long time?btw mine is a white colour so its metal.pls anyone help me?

  • If you are currently using one x than stick to it... ...one x+ is faster and more storage space....that's all. - butterfly is the shape and very slight additional to the IU...that all Other than that all the rest are the same....even the display u can't actually see the diferrent...... If u have xtra cash, than go for butterfly ......if u take x+ , it is as good as u never change your phone......only the speed and the storage....even the shape is the same .....and with a bit is red light replace the white light for the 3 home button ans the wording on its back...

  • There is no big difference between OneX and OneX+ (you can overclock OneX to have OneX+ clock) but the real difference in Butterfly! so if you are the kind of hacking your phone keep OneX and play with it, there is a large dev community in xda forums! if not go for the Butterfly... and flyyyyy.... :D

  • how to transfer apps from the phone memory to sd card on butterfly?

  • hei all xperia fanboy REMEMBER that HTC is the MAKER of Xperia grandfather it is XPERIA X ONE so if sony has smart brain why they need htc for making it.... htc smart ;-)

  • This type of Handset is to carry a beautiful butterfly type display..... well done HTC.....

  • You are correct Sony phones are good but their displays are sucks. The are not vivid as htc and Samsung phones. Howevet xpeeia z better than the butterfly. But they can't beat new HTC One.

  • what you telling man if u dont want clarity like bravia engine & wanted strong battery back mean go and buy Cheap mobile like Samsung.

  • This Phone suck always got stuck. we can't Remove batter to restart.Game also opening slow. camera clarity not good as Sony & Samsung.

  • why every fanboy is trying to defend his fav brand... I personally feel that HTC isn't good as far camera is concerned. currently using HTC vivid and its camera is really pathetic. I've used many droid devices and vivid has worst camera in 8 mp regiment of the devicec I've used. now its gonna be a battle between the quad-core monsters let's wait and see who will win.. HTC definitely will lag behind in camera performance.....

  • I agree with u brother, xperia z screen looks fainted at angles. And we Sony has worst battery backup after micromax, And about 13 mp camera I would like to say tht Sony xperia s and ion are already having 12 mp camera but it hardly in any terms better thn 8 mp cameras then. Now how could one say tht 13 mp of z can change the game. It's just a no. Game and nothing else.this was Sony first quad core so I think they should celebrate tht event , but the truth is tht HTC is having quad core a year before when Sony hav it HTC has got it first quad core in April last year and Sony is having it now . It means tht Sony is a year behind HTC in terms of technology. And about Sony's mobile bravia engine it is said tht I make the picture real life like, but whn u activate tht engine it I warned tht trning on this feature will increase battery consumption. So u hav 2 options Option 1: watch life less picture quality without turning on mobile bravia engine so tht u can save ur battery Option 2: turn on bravia engine and be ready to plug in ur charger.

  • Hey Samsung fanboy ! Why don't to buy a 10 inch Chinese tab if u think thr is problem in this phn while typing text. U people r just stuck to removable cheap plastic back covers, and a low quality flip cover. Why don't u buy a good phn like this one so tht it won't need any plastic to cover it up.

  • i love your comment!!

  • was a samsung user for a while prior to converting to HTC and based on personal experiance, if you want something with more power, with the stylish touch of an apple HTC leads the charge, samsung phones feels plasticky and despite the battery performance, has nothing on HTC IMO~Sense adds on a new dimention to it as well~

  • 5" very large :(

  • how did you know about s4? are you working there? Common, sammy employees. Go back to your own phone thread.

  • Awesome phone

  • hi to all HTC supporters in sg, can anyone help me where to buy screen protector & casing for HTC butterfly, thank you so much...

  • hey guy i put into the water and it can work until now i still love this phone and it have water proof.

  • Considering the phone is 5+ inch display. The breadth is not even three inches. Not good. After querty keyboard is out the breadth of the touch screen phone needs to increase . See samsung phones. Galaxy S IV will come with 3.25 inch breadth Even Galaxy grand is 3.03 inches. Typing becomes pain in with less broad phones. Butterfly will become long narrow phone. Even videos won't be attractive in landscape mode compared to above three inch broad phones.

  • timescape UI is nothing compared to SENSE UI.

  • Xperia Z is by FAR 10 times better that this peace of crap. 5 MP better camera, better screen, speed, battery, thinner,lighter. EVERYTHING . & WATER PROOF. You don't have Sony Xperia Z so don't talk about it !

  • very well explained, i will buy the butterfly today, thanks a lot...

  • love to have this phone..been reading all the comments.. 1.battery - why worry get the external charger,build in battery - how many charging cycle?at least 7000 times thats nearly 2 years..by that time all of you will get newer phones. 2. camera - is there any difference between 8mp and 13mp..as far as i know no body here gonna print the photo as big as 2 story building..RU? might as well get a DSLR camera.

  • The Z's Screen Sucks , the viewing angles , the clolor representaion , the contrast everything Sucks. Even with their Sony Bravia Engine 2 Tech it still Sucks .The Camera was over-rated and was just a hype but now it turned out to be just as normal as what 8Mp sensors can do .The Butterfly is smoother , faster and has a far more better screen than the Xperia Z .And the audio quality of the Butterfly is just marvelous -Just WOOOW .Go HTC.

  • you obviously did not see the speed ,Smooth or the Quality of the Disply for The Butterfly .The Butterfly is beeter than the Xperia Z in almost everthing except the camera .Even the Camera for The Z was over Hyped and turned out to be just normal .

  • is it compatible with skullcandy headphones..???

  • HTC phone battery is always under power and this one not better, many of the 5inch phone battery is mAH3000 or more...

  • Yes its supports

  • Yes it is supported.

  • Want to know flash player is supported or not as i watch live horse racing. Pls reply early .

  • Butterfly is better because the difrence between 1GB and 2GB is more important than the difrence between 1.5 Ghz and 1.7 Ghz. so butterfly is better

  • HTC Butterfly was better, don't care on One X+, that one was tinny update from One X.

  • please advise me which phone is better, HTC BUTTERFLY (2GB RAM. CPU 1.5 GHZ) or HTC ONE X+ (1GB RAM. CPU 1.7 GHZ) please advise me which one is faster. thank u so much...

  • please advise me which phone is better, HTC BUTTERFLY (2GB RAM. CPU 1.5 GHZ) or HTC ONE X+ (1GB RAM. CPU 1.7 GHZ) please advise me which one is faster. thank u so much...

  • bought it yesterday for 44k im impressed really, I switched it from note 2, im not missing it anymore.. superior built quality , light weight and feels really good in hand, if u buy u will never regret believe me. im having an iphone 5 as well black, which got lot of scratches on its sides just in 2 months.im having black colour its good and white too look amazing, and last thing its battery backup is much better than iphone 5. really...

  • Srry guys I know this isnt the place but i have to ask, unlocking bootloader does unlock your sim? And does only unlocking your sim not bootloader affect your warranty?

  • All current Htc phones r plasticy. Plastic totally sucks. I miss the old metallic models of htc.

  • Readin its specs amazed me,it must b a gr8 phone and I m sure that HTCians including me will love it....yeah HTC the mobile market kings,the masters a great phone from ur side wich wil give a though competition to the competitiors... :P

  • U jst leave it until battery turns dry and after the battery is zero percent den u plug in a charger I knw it takes a long time though.

  • What happens when it hangs? I remove the battery for my galaxy S2 and restart it. But what happens when a non removable battery phone hangs?

  • Beautiful phone like a butterfly

  • When are you guys going to benchmark this device... I wanna see it go head to head with the galaxy note 2 in terms of power, performance and features...

  • Press the on-off button follow with the Center button

  • You can try press on/off switch and volume down key together

  • Just press Power button and Volume Down button at the same time then screenshot is done.

  • To take a screenshot press power button and volume down button together

  • Very perfect design!

  • Who can tell me ? How to take screenshot from htc butterfly pls help

  • is it possible to make video call without any application like skype...........?

  • that is not important at all surely new updates are inevitable. easy come easy crack... look at most phones of samsung after update they freeze a while before the could go back to their normal use.

  • i guess u shoud wait Htc M7 to be announce on 19 February..

  • it is 64 gb expandable

  • I was reading specs and was loving this phone then came "Non-removable Li-Po 2020 mAh battery". That's a deal breaker for me smh. Come on HTC

  • if it had 64 gb expndble mmry wud been at the top.

  • awesome phone better den I Phone n samsung galaxy note 2 i am loving using dis phone greaaaaaaaaaaaaaat phone.........!

  • No chipset like one x..is this phone better for playing games like modern combat zero hour 4(MCZH4)

  • Got mine last night. No complaints yet. It was a replacement for my One X. Only cons could be it is slightly longer than the One X, makes it a bit uncomfortable to hold. Hopefully will get used to it. Secondly to charge the phone we need to open the small cover at the bottom. Its a but inconvenient. Hopefully I can discover more features that I haven't used in One X.

  • I've never used HTC before but I'm definitely going for this phone.But can someone tell me if HTC update the Android software as fast as Samsung??How many years does a model have before HTC stop updating,or is it based on the hardware requirements too?

  • very bad battery

  • I am an Apple user, ip4,ip4s & now ip5. Deep into apple products as got an iPad 3 and MacBook Pro. Deep into whole Eco system invested deeply into apps etc. That's the reason I went for iph5. Today had a brief encounter with HTC butterfly for around 10 mins, screen was amazing as good as iPhone 5 Infact better because of the size (5inch). Gr8 quality better than samsung, atleast not plastic. And was so smooth, never saw android so smooth in any phone (used Galaxy S, GNOTE 2,). Only draw back was 2020mah battery for 5inch screen. It should have 3000 mah atleast. If this phone had such battery i would have changed from ip5. It will be really interesting this year I guess as many andoirds flagships will be 1080p and 2 GB ram, with these specs android now is getting smoother. Apple will have to really do sitting big to retain its customer. The only thing apple now is banking on its AppStore and ecosystem. I bought 32GB iPhone for almost 980$ here in India (yeah it's very exp here ). But now have started getting the feeling that the company is asking for too much. Wait for MWC on 24th feb to see what's next. If anyone ok with 2020mah battery I would strongly recommend HTC butterfly.

  • When this phone will be available worldwide?

  • bought this phone 2weeks ago and i'm lovin it. Previously using samsung but my battery consumption is very massive, like i had to charge my phone every 4hour.

  • It would be better if this comes with 64 gb of internal memory plus 64 gb support of expanded memory... Its worth buying..

  • bro i think u r a swimmer

  • Awesome phone

  • one of the best screens ive ever seen...........

  • Go for htc..... Butterfly

  • No

  • They didn't put that it is waterproof

  • i think the battery capacity will be in adequate for the given specifications

  • very nice phone i like the HTC Butterfly by msaimms

  • nice phone but nothing as compared to xperia zl which has 13mp camera and bulit in infrared to control tv,dvd player etc....and most amazingly thing its battery which is 2370mah 4 times to other sets..

  • Very perfect, this phone is 100% - I wanted a!!!

  • yeah right, if it costs the same as iphone, i would rather buy this instead of that stupid overrated iphone.

  • does it consider as an 4G device?

  • For the first time I could copy allcontact from my iPhone without any hastle. Butterfly was as smooth as a butterfly

  • lol htc for this price i cannot go for this

  • supper mamu you will defnetlly use this

  • yes Samsung is made up of plastic, we will come to know its body after using it for an year, my 1 1/2 year old HTC phone is still like a new phone(except scratches on screen guard)(EVEN APPLE phone does the same), And UI in HTC is awesome. Go for HTC

  • Go for Butterfly. Or wait for HTC's new M7 about to be launched on Feb 19

  • I recommend you to stay untill HTC M7 unreleased. Or orther option is you can go for Sony xperia z. Don't buy samsung, they are cheap plastics. I have both used HTC one x and Samsung galaxy s3. I can say one x is better than.the galaxy. Though it's your decision. Good luck!

  • I just got mine a week ago in the Phils at 35k. Very lightweight with sleek design, but I am kinda missing the heavy duty frame from the sensation models. Battery life is okay, depends on usage. On Data Plans it can run for more than a day but if you are sharing your internet via Hotspot, it only lasts 8 hours though...

  • Hi though I prefer z, but both of them is good you'll never go wrong if you chose buterfly

  • Hi I am a one x user I am planning to change my mobile which is the best one x+ or butterfly or s3 4g...

  • Hi presently I am using HTC one x. Now I am planning to change can u suggest me which is the best phone for Singapore network S3 4G or HTC one X+ or HTC butterfly?

  • ya bro............

  • True that friend..once an HTCian always you will be....they are way to good as a company..

  • Hey Guys, just got HTC Butterfly here in New Delhi..Guys trust me this is the finest phone in the global market till now....Simply amazing...may it be battery support ( not great but surprisingly decent) , Super clear n crisp screen , Absolutely no LAG, Sense UI rocks...WOW Special mention of its sound quality ..its just too good to be true... Camera is not as great as One X Close your eyes and go for it

  • I recommend you to buy Xperia Z! It's the best smartphone in Sony, everything in that phone completely full.

  • I'm prefer HTC Dragonfly...haha. btw..I'm using one x now...and after update the system it seem more compatible..and it have veryyyyy good grafic card.. O_O

  • I just got my HTC butterfly 2 days back. I don't see an issue with battery, comfortably lasts me 24 hrs with 3g on 100% of times and about 4 accounts on SYNC, 2-3 hrs of music, games. Its getting better with each charge, which was expected. I have used many phones like Iphone 5,One X, S3, Note/note 2, Lumia 820 etc etc but this is by far the best and by miles. Sound is brilliant, Camera is good, performance is zippy, no lag like in S3 and note 2, very nice to handle,i dont even want to talk about the display because its that good. It is slightly expensive but if you par INR 45000 for iPhone 5, i would pay this price any day for the butterfly

  • Guys, M7 now htc one has same specs only 13mp camera ad 32gb storage. Rest is identical, its specially released to counter xperia z, which is at par with one. Just see the prices 870$, its equal to an led 42`television, its waist of hard earned money. But some have called newly father wealth they can spend. I have had all top of the line ones now i will wait for sammy flexible screen concept. All invations are n my hands other things to cater for than mobiles.Take Care

  • HTC butterfly is amazing phone.... if people are planning to switch to HTC you can start with HTC sensation XL... one of the best phone launched by HTC

  • Best phone. But galaxy y is enough for me

  • It'd very good phone

  • buy HTC One X+ or Butterfly depending on your budget... I'm using HTC One X+..This are the best phones so far. HTC for life no matter what

  • Any one knows how to upgrade to 4.2jelly bean? I've try at the settings software update it shows no update available. Is it even release yet

  • unaffordable.

  • Go and check huawei ascend p2

  • what about battery?

  • i love you htc but this phone are very expensive keep my one x

  • I like screen of this phone. It so clear and highest resolution more than others. Almost it OK.

  • sony xperia Z is the Best...

  • iPhone 5 is about 60% of This powerful Butterfly Butterfly WIN iPhone 5 almost everything - CPU - RAM - SCREEN

  • Best phone! People who compare this with iPhone are stupid. iPhone has different league, HTC phones have different league. Both the phones have different feeling of use. Butterfly is very well designed phone.

  • too expensive! here in China it costs the same as IPhone 5! Not too many people will buy it when they can buy Iphone5.

  • When i have the money to buy this phone.. it will discontinue

  • I think the price of d Xperia Z hasn't been announced till nw .So I don't think there is any need to debate on this issue...

  • The red Butterfly is beautiful.

  • HTC Butterfly gives almost 60fps on 3D graphics. Original One X arouns 50~55 depending on software. So the Grapichs are greather, even on an 1080p. Battery seems to be better than Original One X, worse than One X+ . But if you like Better Battery go to One X+, I prefer a better screen, as its battery is better than my One X

  • which is better between one x+ and butterfly ?

  • butterfly is amazing phone. i rec get the red color.battery is quite ok but if u r a heavy user u might want to bring along the charger. i let go my xperia tx for this n dont regret at all.nice sense4+

  • mini amplifire with beats audio And full hd screen and sense 5!!!!!!!! it came for destroy me!! i done need to ever subject for my free time when i have it.. tnx htc for this masterpiece.

  • very exciting super phone.. solid like stone - beautifull like butterfly

  • this phone support LTE when i put ATT sim card in USA?

  • I love HTC..Now I'm using ONE X... No battery problem coz I always brought 11200mAH power bank wth me.. battery problem solved for all smartphone...Tq

  • this divice using igzo display technology which consume less power than amold & ips

  • Hey guys..i just got it yesterday.if u left money then just go for it..i dun understand why ppl said that "battery life sucks,dun buy this phone etc"..how about iphone?the ohthers brand?are they good the performance?i just change from lg optimus 4x hd.the lied to me.that one battery only suck,half day then finish.this phone is awesome!!beautiful screen.and the battery life quite ok even only 2020mAh,can use up to one day more.FUll HD display is best.u dun even watch a dot of noise whenu watching video.although the youtube provide Full HD video..but the bitrate is still low.so not so clear.if u find some video from bluray or HD Video with high bitrate.its awesome.i can swear to u all uwill love it.trust me guys.

  • Who needs a 441 ppi screen density? Besides bigger resolutions sacrifice graphic speed not to mention the high battery consumption.. Come on HTC you can do better than that

  • i too . i will buy only if it is priced not less than inr -70000.

  • wooow i like pricey phones! getting it when released in my country!

  • I want it, cuz HTC has premium build quality..(I've proved it) and interesting User Interface :D I hope HTC will release "HTC Butterfly+" equipped with 3500 mah of battery, android 4.2 OS, and has shutter camera key. (cuz quad core should need more battery consumption, 3500 mah must be enough) if it become true,, I will spend my money for that!! :D

  • i love the design of HTC butterfly but i need a camera shutter key and a bigger battery,lower price and it would be great.. but for now ill choose SONY even compared to m7 the m7 is quite a downfall in design aspects not including red metallic accents. Xperia Z fits my standards and personal preference.

  • I agree u. Its very costly. Xperia z is far better than this butterfly with more lovely and exciting features. I owned xperia p and xperia ion. And my experience is that sony is the best these days.

  • Go to Sony Xperia Z ... more mAh battery.. more mega pixel camera.. water proof in 1 meter .. more pixel per inch (ppi).. sony roxxxxxxxxxx ... :)

  • i love htc phone beacuse it support all my faverate game and camera now it cuming with beats audio software i love htc mobile and good design.....

  • Why it is so costly, when sony xperia z has far better features than this mobile...Is butterflies body made up of Gold or what ?

  • i have samsung glxy s3....but i gifted it to my brother....Becouse i like my htc one x+.....it is awsm and brilliant....it more beter than sgs3......i waiting for htc ..Next flagship htc m7

  • I bought this phone end of December in Taiwan for teh equivalent of GBP480, i got the black model. It was hard to get as it was constantly sold out. The sim card port cover broke immediately the first time we opened it, it wouldn't click into place after being opened, but HTC replaced it with a new one after examining it. very lucky. Apart from that rocky start, this phone is the best i have ever owned...period. It's fast, has a fantastic screen and design and fits in the hand well. battery life is surprisingly good, i get 15-18 hours on average with lots of internet surfing, photo taking,listening to music through my bluetooth headset, and always being connected to a wifi or a mobile network. However no NFC for taiwan versions, but it's available on the japanese, US, and chinese versions. WTH??

  • my dear frnds I love htc phones love its sense and its looks bt battry is not up to mark its hardly passes d whole day.....my suggestions to htc is plz improve ur battry.... I own one x although its ultimate phone bt battry sucks..... dear frnds batry place important role for a smartphone so think thrice before buying and u must go for htc bcz its different.....

  • you will need to root the device. and download and install a copy of stock android os. whichever you 4.0/4.1/4.2 and so on. thats the only i agree. the different ui's from manufacturers are a bit naff.

  • I don't think they will launch a new phone at that time buddy,because that would be time of Samsung's brand new Flagship phone Galaxy S4's arrival. Even if they(HTC) launch a phone at time, no one will even come to know about HTC's launch wher the market would be flooded by SGS4!!

  • Buy Google Nexus 4!!

  • Girls, You know what? I am sick of the UI that every manufacturer puts it in every of their phones. HTC, SAMSUNG, APPLE, SONY, LG, HUAWEI all of them. I wan to delete/disable the UI from the system and use ANDROID own on UI. How do I do it? Anyone? Would love you immediate feedback. Thanks

  • you probably never owned a htc device. you think you can judge better than gsmarena's review? take a leave, samsun employee

  • hey sammy employee, you can take a break now. My note 2 is only 12 hours long, and takes 4 hours to charge.. wth..

  • some folks are far to grow mentally if not academically. they posts trash which goes like this IT IS NOT FOR ME why can't you keep quite cause it is not for you OK what impact will it make to someone when you dislike a phone which you don't even use? I'm using HTC OneX+ which is great in terms of battery. Experia Z/ZL it's UI is terrible compared to HTC Sense. HTC batteries mostly are moderate except HTC desire S & HTC One X+ that has the best battery that can reach almost 2 days.

  • If u dont care about the battery life then its fine, but for me its a big disadvantage for a device that are so beautiful but very weak/poor battery life... Htc will make a new upgrade version soon... They wanna match with sony xperia z/zl and samsung galaxy note 2 and samsung galaxy s4... They will announce it soon!! Just wait another 3 month frm now...

  • Any other problem? Accept for the battery life is not met expectation otherwise it will be a great device with higher battery capacity... Screen display is just awesome but do not set the screen brightness at max lvl.. Surely the battery will not last long... Its true that the usb hatch sometime very hard to open if u hv short nail to open it...

  • Well i have a basic question.. when the brand says launched it should also include "in stores" ... ppl go mad calling stores n dealers and they say its launched not in stock. i feel this is insane. There should be sm rule that launched means in "hands of final consumer"... not launched in sm stupid conference or room

  • Personal preference. For me Note 2 looks like a mutant. Too big. And what are its advantages really? S-Pen? Is that an advantage?

  • I have no problem with my battery. Plus this phone is just palin beautiful!

  • Guys i am using HTC one X, the battery life is dismal. HTC should try bigger batteries. it doesn't make any sense of the processing power/Ram/Storage if u don't have the juice to run it...this phone with 2500-3000 mah will make it perfect.

  • Just one week i'm using HTC butterfly, when i try download mail service, display INSUFFICIENT MEMORY...any suggestion

  • Shame they are not gonna sale this in United Kingdom! Love my HTCs and this looks really great!!

  • Omg! What is HTC even thinking about this phone? An old 8mp camera,2020 maH battery and the fanous beats audio(only htc should know what that beats really do!!) And above that it is priced at Rs 46,000!! There are lot of phones available within 35k( Optimus G,Nexus 4, SG Note & SGS3) Save yourself HTC!!

  • You serious? Is there any disadvantage other than battery life?

  • There will be a new model, an upgrade version with lte+nfc, bigger battery, 13mpx camera, new snapdragon cpu, little but bulky n ugly 5.5" design! It has almost same design as butterfly but ugly!!

  • Pls do not buy htc butterfly!!! Battery life if sucks!! It drains very fast!!! Dont be fool by it beautiful design and specs, u will regret on the 1st day u bought it!! Save ur money now bcoz htc will come with new htc butterfly with bigger battery, this 1st batch is just a fail prototype!!!

  • For instance(Just in case) it may not have extra features but atleast it doesn't allow root access to any 3rd unknown user sitting at remote location against your will like the Exynos and issue is still not addressed Losers There is something known as quality, in which HTC is way ahead of samsung. Real difference is HTC doesn't make hype for its way too small features as samsung does

  • sammy employee, you can take some break.

  • Well said bro.I second it..For 45k HTC Butterfly is not worth..Note 2 is superior in all the departments whether its looks/specs/design/price..or Wait for another 2 months for S4 launch...

  • how was the battery stamina ?

  • were can i buy it online

  • It seems to be one of the best mobiles in the market, however depends on the price and value for money!!!

  • samsung galaxy note 2 with 5.5inch and more good features and specifications with only 37bucks why to waste huge 45 for just 5inch and less features. either get a note 2 or add 5bucks more and get an apple laptop but dont waste your hardwork sweat money on this htc butterfly let it fly

  • HEY HTC butterfly deserve its price because it got everything and every feature in it which is needs to be in complete smartphone and please do not compare there high quality branded things with low quality mobiles(canvas 2). I also like MICROMAX CANVAS 2 BUT its is not competalbe with this beast in and condition.

  • Dear Respective team !! compareto Note there is no extra application please let us know why this Cost of HTC

  • no water resistant as xperia z

  • Launched in India yesterday for huge 45k... dumb move. Over priced. better to wait for Sony Xperia Z.. more battery, more camera pixels, fiber glass body (even polycarbonate of HTC is good in a way) and water and dust resistance... woah... looks like Sony is back with a Bang... only con is TFT vs Super LCD 3 of HTC.. It would be huge success if pricing and timing is rightly... atleast in India

  • Such a high range of specification but in rating why not in top 8 in gsm arena Does people not aware of this phone ?

  • Does anyone know if SOLO HD Beats headphone will work on this phone? I know it has a beats headphone sign on the back of the phone....

  • for texting and calling you can get Nokia 3310 - will last you few weeks before you'll need to charge it again :)

  • This costs 31k in the Philippines... They only released the red version first.

  • Launched in India for 46k.....

  • WOoahhh Bro that's called a mob ;) Resolution best Usb 4.0 :) specificition are realyy NICe but the name of the mob is very girlish :)

  • if u used to one handed using phone function with full HD Screen than u go for Butterfly.. If u like bigger screen and no problem to used two hand when using the phone ..and all your jeans and shirt have bigger pocket than Note2 is for u ^^

  • HTC Butterfly comes to India for Rs. 45990..........

  • What do you know about BUTTERFLY? Nothing Do you even use the phone? No So why commenting? Bored I personally own the phone its beautiful inside and powerful outside.. great work HTC...

  • whatever it may be we cant use video call,if we r paying more then 35k we expect these features

  • Depends on your environment and usage. If you're already in Apple's environment such that you've purchased songs and movies from iTunes, get an iPhone. If you're in Android ecosystem, get the Samsung Note 2. But for Android, I'd recommend the Xperia Z. If you want something new, smooth user experience that can match the iPhone, go for the Lumia 920. It's also said to have one of the best 8MP camera :) Hope this helps.

  • I need viewers opinion... I was thing to buy a new gadget... Iphone5 ? Samsung NoteII ? Nokia Lumia 920? or HTC Butterfly...... which one is the best specification...hurry i need a feedback

  • htc upgraded the model but insanely reduce other part(battery).for heavy user its a hell...

  • I purchased this phone on the 17th of Jan and received it in the post on the 21st of Jan. I Love this phone. - The screen is awesome. Very Bright, very clear, very sharp - Feels great - The tapered edges make the phone feel paper thin - Feels fantastic (I have the white one - and NO it does NOT look like a iphone) Quality of build is excellent. - Battery is fantastic for medium use - 100% in morning, Phone calls, messages, email, hotspot, general play - Battery at the end of the day is about 20% - However if you play games etc (which I don't a lot - unless I am waiting for my wife whilst shopping!) battery is reduced - Still lasts most of the daylight hours. - I LOVE HTC SENSE - I played with my mates S3 and he played with my phone, he says he wishes he'd bought the Butterfly - He doesn't like S3's interface either. - I rate this phone a 10/10 however IF I did play games all day (Which I don't cause I have a job) I probably give it an 8/10 for battery life. Purchased it through Expansys for $777 inc extended warranty.

  • I'm not sure about the battery life of the Butterfly but my LG L9 has an impressive battery life, around 2 days with normal use. Me thinks can last more than that if I just use it for texting and calling.

  • I had using Note for past 7 months..i love it but not pocket friendly .. So i switch to this Amazing phone..u will love the speed and performance is fantastic..! The Sense ui is way better than TW.. And for the battery life, is good for one day used..and i always bring my power bank along just in case..

  • If compare to Motorola HTC Butterfly should come with 3000mAh+ battery for this superb powerful Butterfy. However, I still love it the most.

  • With all respect, there is no comparison between the Butterfly and L9... For one (of many advantages of the Butterfly) the resolution is double what is offered by L9. For a fair compare (in my opinion), the LG VU P895 is of the same class, and here, Butterfly wins by miles when it comes to battery life. Don't get me wrong, I'm not defending the Butterfly, a device with a price tag (+$800) should offer much better performance in terms of battery life, but so far, I haven't seen a device even close to the Galaxy Note-II (or Note-I) in this regards. Where I live (UAE), the LG VU P985 is the same price as the Note-I. I might be wrong about the L9, but my experience with LG smart phones (L7 and 4X) made me sure never to waste money on an LG device again. Very nice specs at an amazingly reasonably price but the battery life is a big let down, just like the iphone 4/4S (haven't tried iphone 5 and for sure will not try it) but I wouldn't expect miracles despite the reviews claiming long battery life for the iphone 5.

  • Good to known the hand set in htc androi

  • You don't have to consider my opinion. If you want a good Android you may go for S3 or Note2 which has an impressive battery life and a quite lovely display, but its design to me is ugly. I'd sugest Xperia Z if you can wait a while. Can't tell anything about Butterfly, seems so good, but so many battery complaints... Nexus4 and OptimusG for the right price may be a smart choice. Or maybe a Padphone2. You got numerous options.

  • How is Sony doing? Only the 2nd best selling Android manufacturer behind Samsung! Watch Sony soar without Ericsson.....twip!!

  • Hey guys why HTC equip this big lcd phone only 2020 battery????? Htc High end phones always Low battery. I hate htc.... Love galaxy note2.

  • Looks nice but battery life seems somehow extremely poor compared to Samsung Galaxy Note II. Also would be nice if HTC introduced a pen like Samsung's S pen on Samsung's Note II. HTC please make a device like Samsung Galaxy Note II (even size). (quality wise would be better than Samsung!)

  • This is true

  • Can some 1 guide me to make 3g call on this device, just can't find it !!!

  • Read carefully he says sony better than samsung not samsung better than sony

  • Yeah you are right. But you forgot one thing. Nowadays, most people don't just keep using the same phones for many years. They just use them for one or two years and change to new phones. The number of Samsung phones sold per year is a lot. remember, not too many people use HTC. since the number HTC phones sold per year is little compared to Samsung, you may not see many people sell their HTC out. That's the reason why you noticed many people sell out their Samsung smartphones. After they sell, they will buy another Samsung (the latest version). HTC is not bad, but I don't think people will move from Samsung to HTC unless HTC starts to change its policy in terms of battery capacity, price (some HTC's phones are as expensive as Samsungs' ) and so on.

  • lg l9 (mid-range phone) has far better battery life than htc btterfly.... htc shame on you...

  • htc. butterfly has a very poor battery life! believe me... in just about 16hours of normal use . an hour net browsing or downloading data the battery got an empty... poor htc!!!

  • I see u r a samsung hater...care to share ur bitter experience dealing with the brand...this is so we readers can make an informed decision and not just based on ur personal opinion

  • Li-Po: Charges slowly because majority of the power used to charge is wasted. The battery adapts to your usage so it will take some time .. Costlier Li-ion: Charges quickly cheaper issues when the leakage or over charged( can be ignored because now a days every manufacturer takes care of it)

  • What is more than in this phone compair to ace+ and xperia j

  • Bought this unit, almost 3days now, everything perfect except I still can't find the 3g video call optio. Battery quit fast when using mobile data, wish the batt was around 2500++ would be better. Power button was on top, when need to awake the screen quite discomfort and ergonomic, need to find app that can awake by shaking or something like that....anyway happy and just nice as i don't prefer bulky phone as note.

  • most people bought their S3 and note 2 last year but currently many are selling them are you guys aware of it or is it only happening in my country. And many are after Iphone 5 which is very very expensive.

  • The last year was great for Samsung. 25% of all phones in the world are by Samsung. But soon it will go down because trends change. Eg. at some point most people buy Nokia, then they go Blackberry, then iPhone, then Samsung, then who knows. If one has a samsung flagship is very probable to want to try another company's flagship later, eg HTC. Another factor is that everyone learned how to increase the specs in figures and to call it innovation, so samsung is not the one. Even most others have much better build quality than Samsung, like Sony which is excellent and Htc and Motorola also are quite good. Lg is competing hard too, Huawei, Zte, Meizu, Asus, Xiaomi, and a dozen others are trying hard for their chances. Apple, Rim and Nokia in the other hand will do their own. Of course Samsung will go down, what do you expect to come after the peak.

  • a review and reaults of cpu and gpu benchmarks are supoosed to reflecting by now

  • Non-replaceable, 2020 mAh battery size (only) for 5" full HD screen phablet with quad cores engine has degraded this nice phone.

  • And most people in my country have moved from HTC to Samsung!

  • No 3G Vedio call in htc one x.how about in butterfly.cant compare with samsung

  • bigger screen thn my xiaomi2 but i prefer size of xiaomi2 which can use with one hand

  • they said it before..

  • Who says?

  • Got it for 1 week now (Philippines). HTC Butterfly is just perfect. Li-Po is better than Li-Ion

  • Samsung's downfall is starting soon.

  • Can anyone tell us what the performance of the battery? is it good? Li-Po is better than LI-ion?

  • And most of my friends and officemates switched from samsung to sony and htc

  • main draw back is non removable battery type its highly big minus to the mobile

  • Seen this phone at my local telco store.. Looks amazing! But i wonder if the battery is good? Anyone?

  • Not gonna buy it if it's cheap i like HTC because it makes brilliant and expensive phones!

  • Very nice

  • Very nice

  • Sorry HTC..I will wait for Sony Xperia Z...the king

  • Most of my Sony user friends switch to Samsung.. go figure!

  • When does optus get this product...

  • the best

  • I want 5.5 inch display Windows phone

  • Sony is just starting over. Just wait. Sony makes quality products. Some people chooses quality over quantity. And quality isn't part of samsungs vocabulary.

  • Enlighten us please... How well is Sony ?

  • Soft

  • better than iphone? iphone is no longer the bechmark to be compared with :P

  • Sony is a 100 lightyears ahead of Samsung when build quality comes in question. So is HTC. Samsung has the worst build quality of all high-end devices... It's not batter than Huawei.

  • it's a glossy or a soft touch finish on the back ?

  • too expensive

  • I like to go commando, no casings. Dude, since when samsung beats sony in build quality? Please tell me. Enlighten me.

  • Old news most smartphone batteries have overcharging protection built in (if not all). Charging from 20% won't make any major changes in battery life.

  • too expensive . i am waiting for Samsung innovation .

  • I using this amazing phone about 4 days now..and I lovveeee it.. the Phone is fast like he** and as the battery life..my last phone is SamsungNote..if compare with this phone the battery life is better.. the design is beautiful.very slim and it fit into pocket nicely ..go for it guys..

  • india release date?????

  • It's the best smart phone up to now.even better than i phone 5.

  • I'm a sony fan but this is for all the people that complain about HTC's battery life this can help some people. this is for noobs

  • Is really a nice smart phone in the moment . I like it .

  • the phone is very high priced. Indian price approximately INR 49,990 (US$ 932)

  • yes 100% sure chanda wifi issue

  • People! Are yoy sure it has got Wifi issues? Pls confirm.

  • Sony and htc have way way better build quality than samsung. I accidentally dropped my shuffle bag with my phones inside. The screen of my s3 cracked but my sxs and sensation xe doesn't even have scuff marks

  • Butterfly fail in Pakistan without sim wifi not issue then insert sim wifi is not working what the hell HTC

  • wifi issue in pakistan

  • Haha, because HTC is "quietly" brilliant? Well, I've used s bunch of Android device since the Motorola rolled out the Milestone 1, For me, HTC the smoothest and lag free.

  • Yes you are right and also evry body now the HTC is awesome on tuch specielly

  • the battery 2020 mAh? why they cant make it more power than SamNote 2? its only little improvement compared to One X. I hope the battery life in not terrible again!

  • Why HTC no new release after butterfly atleast announcement. Of new release

  • sony fans, why are you in this thread, it's not even a review thread of butterfly vs xperia. to sony fans, your real competitor that kick you out of competition is samsung

  • After 700 cycles it just starts to last less and less, if you like the phone and don't want to change after 2 years you order an original(usually the 3rd-party ones are sh!t) battery, watch a video on youtube on how to change it by yourself or ask a technician to do it for you. Total cost roughly 50 bucks. ;-)

  • It means To Be Determined, meaning they don't know the answer yet.

  • To Be Disclosed*

  • I think the xperia Z/ZL is better because it have 13mpx and more battery life(13 vs 8mpx and 2370/30 vs 2020 mah)and the xperia has cool design.but its not all...

  • you can either buy a new battery or get a new phone and recycle the old one.

  • TBD: To Be Done (It means this feature currently not available, to be done in future)

  • Hi everybody.I have a question,maybe somebody knows the answer.A battery is capable roughly 700 charging cycle.What can you do after that(its about 2 years),if you cant change the battery?Buy a new phone?Put the phone to the trash?

  • No.... I'm using the stupid Digi....

  • Is your signaln on H+ all day?

  • You are correct, BUT the USA version does NOT have a microSD card slot. Instead they are geared up with the wireless charging technology ;)

  • hey so is it worth to buy it ? and its waterproof or not ?

  • Typing through HTC Butterfly now, this is the 2nd HTC I had (flyers the 1st) battery lasted untill now(2.25AM THE NEXT DAY) from 9AM with everything on, include the so called power saver that cones with the device. Average usage of calls and watsapp and about 5hrs of continues browsing and youtubing, No worries for battery issue (more than enough to last all day long . Blazing fast... And the most important thing, I wouldn't have to WAIT for the dialer to show up and unpolished UI like in Note 1 and Note 2 which I sold.... But.... No casing for it yet.... Be careful....drop it? Youre dead....

  • Oooooh eh eh!,the price is to damn high.

  • Actually he is correct. Droid dna is the 1st smart phone with 1080p resolution. Droid dna is the us version of butterfly. Correct me if I'm wrong.

  • specs seem good to me. my concern is the battery. it has small battery capacity for a bigger screen display (5") compared to s3 with a bit higher battery capacity for a smaller screen display (4.8") between the two..

  • htc butterfly is really awesome !!!!! recently i saw a video introducing butterfly from Taiwan , it was not officially published, and it was cute !!! i would like to share with you !!!

  • Not that good unlike the other phone, but in the performance, I may say It is One of the Top.

  • no LTE no FM radio no NFC!!! that's BS! one x+ much better!

  • tbd means-To Be Disclosed.The manufacturer has not yet disclosed whether it has radio or the radio features.

  • What's HTC's battery life like? Most of the HTC reviews on GSM arena has nothing on battery life.

  • TBD To be disclose..

  • Nothing new?? I agree that the xperia Z is better.. but this phone is not comparable to the one X. It's way better!! I'm sorry but i think that you don't understand anything about smartphones specs..

  • how do you know it since you don't use it.. keep on whining and trolling... HTC forever... No matter what..

  • when htc butterfly is avilable in india

  • is htc butterfly avilable in india
