The legendary smartphone brand HTC is back after a 4-year hiatus. The brand is preparing to introduce a new flagship smartphone. This information was confirmed at the MWC 2022 conference.

 HTC was one of the world`s largest smartphone brands 10 years ago. However, due to the wrong strategies they followed, they became so small that they disappeared from the market. Withdrawing from the global market, the company continues to sell budget-friendly smartphones in some markets. The Taiwanese company will launch its first Android flagship smartphone next year in four years. This information was confirmed at the MWC 2022 conference by Charles Huang, CEO of HTC Vive Asia. The new flagship model will be the first flagship model after the HTC U12 + introduced in 2018. The new model will be an enhanced smartphone focused on virtual reality applications. It will also be deeply integrated with HTC`s open source Metaverse project called Viveverse. In 2018, the company sold its smartphone division to Google. The company, which currently operates only in some markets, plans to re-enter the global market.
