No LTE = no deal

This, exactly.

Unless the phone is targeted specifically at markets where 4G LTE is not available, why would they even bother making a flagship-level phone without LTE support?

I won't buy any HTC phone until they get rid of the stupid "Beats Audio" logo that's a joke to anyone who knows anything about audio and/or provide another version without the logo.

I wish they would release a new Windows Phone. Their Windows Phones are so good. Hopefully they will when Windows Phone 8.1 rolls out.

Show me which phones have the same great audio quality as the Butterfly. Phones is different.

It's just the logo on the back that bugs me. I don't care about the quality.

And apparently it's worse.

"Beats Audio" is just a label, it doesn't actually support any kind of standard. And, Beats products aren't exactly known for great quality in the audiophile world, either. The sound of the phone may be great, but the label has nothing to do with it.

In the phone world, Butterfly and One (they are essentially the same) are one the best phones, besides iPhone when it comes down to audio quality. They also has headphone amplifier built in, not many phones have them.

For a true audiophile they will use external headphone amp like FiiO or Pocket Amp, but how convenient it is when you can just plug a high impedance cans and it sound good without using any external amp.
