If the Zenith comes with a SD slot, it will be worth looking at. Sounds like a very impressive piece of hardware.

Did u ever get any free upgrade from microsoft like from xp to vista or xp/vista to w7 n at the same time from office 2003 to 2007/2010?? No, right!! Then think its the same strategy!! I dunno why are they applying the same in smartphone market!!

              So...
              WP8 can run with 512Mo of RAM like WP7.
              WP8 can run on run-of-the-mill Qualcomm SOC like WP7.
              So what's preventing WP8 kernel to run on WP7 hardware again ?

                Now I have a reason to leave android. The htc accord is what I would go for. 4.3 inches dual core is great for what I am looking for as my next toy! Let us wait and see what nokia's new flagship and midrange will be, hopefully within my budget! Windows phone 8 apollo - my future

                        Windows Phone is already slick and smooth. With these specs it will be amazing. And seeing that Metro UI on a 720p screen is exciting

                          That Zenith sounds really worth taking a look at. Let's see what Samsung and Nokia (and Huawei???) can do to compete with it. I'm not a big fan of WP just yet, but such a handset (quad S4, 720p screen) sounds quite catching.

                            Here we go again. HTC loves to be ahead of everybody, be first to release the first 16MP camera phone, the first ICS-running (setting aside Galaxy Nexus) droid phone, and now, the first WP8 smartphone. But all phones they release ahead of everything else are all buggy and shitty.

                              by the time htc roll out their wp8 phones this fall, nokia would still be selling its flagship wp phone , the lumia 900.

                                  What will be the first Nokia phone model which will support Windows Phone 8 OS?

                                    That entry level looks real nice and the mid looks like it could compete with current samsung galaxy phones. I think they are holding off on the specs of the zenith just to see how nokia and samsung will respond. Nice. Hurray for competition. Screw loyalty and fanboyism. Its the consumer who wins. :-)

                                      guessing these arent going to be out by the end of august (when my contract is up for renewal) looking forward to more details on the HTC Zenith model!
