    "Cher Wang, the company's CEO, addressed the issue herself and officially apologized to shareholders. She mostly attributes this decline to poor operational efficiency and insufficient marketing efforts to combat competition."
    Does she really think HTC M9 failed only due to lack of marketing? Seriously! This further shows their arrogance and ignorance. I really want them to come out of the crisis they are facing right now, but looking at their poor high-end plans, I don't see any fruitful results in near future.

      Is the HTC One E9+ a regional or global product ?!
      Does it (or will it, nobody really knows) sell in the plains west of India ?!
      I think HTC has only China in mind for this product (and may be some close by minnows in the region). And after their usual modest sales there, they are shipping the unsold leftovers to India, from which this device may trickle westward by default.
      No wonder this company is struggling.

          As long as HTC is not getting rid of those unnecessary black bars in the bottom and increasing the screen to body ratio, they will not succeed.

              Hei HTC ... listen to me ... your product are good and they have quality , you can change the CAMERA and the PRICE TAG ! If you lower the price with 30% you have a best seller in the market !

              If not ... you will sink fast and I would not care !

Frankly speaking, almost every customer cares about these twothings: Innovation and Good Pricing. Samsung and Apple, notably Samsung, have been doing great in doing what customers really want, such as bigger screen, wireless charging.

                          There's no reason to be "upbeat" about HTC's future. They're a company that continuously denies what the market has been telling them for years: "We don't like your smartphones, HTC." 5" screens on phones the size of some with 5.5", industrial design that's a proven failure, and a horribly bloated Android launcher do not make for sales success, but don't tell HTC that. Even though they hired Iron Man to peddle their wares, they're now claiming poor marketing is the reason for their struggling sales. NOT. Why don't you try to do something you haven't done in years, HTC. INNOVATE.

                            J-man, 05 Jun 2015The hardware of the m9+ is what the m9 should have been.Sorry, but i disagree. A crappy MediaTec SoC? M9+ doesn't even come close to the performance of M9 (or M8 for that matter).

One good example, Hyundai cars. The cars are very good in quality and designs, yet the pricing seems to be affordable for anyone.....Also, some Hyundai cars are better than some cars of Toyota, Volkswagen etc...

                                I believe that now a days most of the mobile companies focus on the "low price- best phone" formula. So HTC also adopt the same and try to understand the market strategies.... Hope HTC will get soon...

                                    I think 'fallen' companies like HTC and BB need to offer higher pecs and lower prices just to compete with Samsung/Apple. It's too late to offer the same specs and same prices for similar products from SamApp. Buyers need a good deal so they can't not buy you. Hear that Nokia, if you ever return to making handsets (please do)

                                      Htc m9 has nothing but a overheating machine. And that huge bezel and the logo makes it ugly. At least g4 and s6 looks cool and diffrent than their previous gen. Get rid of overheating, that huge logo bar and come with a new look.
