You know they have a deal right? They share patents, without it the iPhone 6 wouldn't had it's metal like the M7 had before it and where the design came from

So many factual errors on that image.
Treo just to name one was out before HTCs first touchscreen phone. I won't point out every issue but anyone who is old enough knows this image is bullshit.
Oh god, they claim to have the worlds first touchscreen device as well. Again, Palm was way before them, and the Treo 180 was way before as a phone/pda with keyboard.
So many blatant lies in that image. |
Treo came out in 2002... HTC before that already (though may it be under the Qtek name)

So wonderful to see some of this bullshit. People saying HTC copied the iPhone 6, even though the M7 came out 18 months before the iPhone 6.

More bullshit 
First of all, you're shoving PDAs under phones. The Treos were PDAs, not phones. And certainly not smartphones. And yes, that does make a difference.
Second, you say the Treo 180 was "way before" as a general touchscreen device; the 180 is from 2002, the chart says 1998. If you're going to attempt to counter it, at least use Wikipedia for a minute.
But that's okay, let me do that for you. Most Treo devices are not Palm devices, they were made by Handspring with Palm OS. They were not an ODM, they were a standalone company. Run by people who left 3COM (owner of the Palm brand at the time).
You know who used to be a full-time ODM though? HTC. HP's PDAs (including the iPAQ series)? Yep, HTC built those. Treo 650 and Pro? Yep, built by HTC. O2 X D A? You guessed it, HTC.
Their claim is "first touch & wireless device". Not first touchscreen device (that would be IBM anyway ). Touch & wireless. And that may very well be accurate, because in that period they built pretty much everything for everyone. In 1998, when the touchscreen devices were all either Windows or Palm devices, HTC built probably 75% of all the Windows devices, regardless of the brand on that device. And Palm didn't go wireless yet then, you still needed to either use a modem or a cradle to synchronise. In fact, Palm didn't get around that until the Treos if I'm not mistaken.
Whether HTC's claim is 100% accurate I don't know, because it's hard to check that now. And they most certainly wouldn't have done so under their own name, it would've been for HP or Palm most likely.
But if you're going to come out with "so many factual errors", "blatant lies" and other nonsense like that, at least get your own facts straight. |

The fuck are you talking about?
2002 Treo 180. TWO YEARS BEFORE HTCs claimed date.
The 180 wasn't a smartphone? It was a phone running Palm OS. It had a touchscreen and a keyboard. (Or you could get the sister model that replaced the keyboard with a graffiti area, largely worthless though because you still had a touchscreen on the keyboard model and graffiti was a gimmick) To me that's a smartphone no matter what bullshit definition excuse you come up with. It's a PDA (Running what was at the time a pretty decent OS) + phone. It came out before the phrase Smartphone was even a thing. Doesn't mean it wasn't a smartphone though. And yes before you ask the 180 had GPRS so you didn't have to do the bullshit of dialing up over the cell network.
And I don't need a handspring lesson, I owned every model.
Finally the Treo 180 was a touchscreen smartphone so that's way the hell before 2007. The 180g as I alluded to above dropped the keyboard for the Palm graffiti area. This means that Handspring did a touch only smartphone like the iPhone or whatever model HTC had come out in 2007. This is why I always laugh at Apple/HTC/whoever that claim to be the "first". No! Handspring was first. The technology may have been 5 years older and slower but they /were the first/.
It doesn't matter if HTC was the hardware builder for handspring. That's not what they are implying with that graphic. Handspring came up with the idea NOT HTC (Again, the graphic isn't even saying that. That's just you completely misrepresenting HTCs own bullshit graphic with more bullshit to support your position), and that's why it's bullshit.
TLDR - You're wrong, 180 did it /first/. Not only before HTC but it was far more user friendly and useable than even earlier smartphones like the n9000, etc. This is due to a number of reasons. It had decent physical dimensions, it had the decent touchscreen + keyboard layout, and more importantly it was running Palm OS which was way better then the limited shit the smartphones from the late 90s had. (The 6035 from 2001 was running Palm OS but without the keyboard it was shitty) All of which again was before HTC.
And while I have no way of 100% confirming I'm pretty sure you're dead wrong about HTC building Handsprings not that it would matter given what I mentioned earlier as it has nothing to do with that graphic.

I never said HTC built shit for Handspring, they didn't. I said they built shit for Palm amongst others - Handspring weren't the only ones producing Palm devices. The 650 and Pro are both HTC devices, as were some of the pre-Treo ones.
I misread what you said about the 180 though, I thought you were comparing it to the "First Touch & Wireless" statement, not the "with keyboard". Whether that feat goes to Palm or Blackberry I can't really say, probably Palm but I can't exactly remember what Blackberry had on the market then.
As for it "not mattering" that HTC built those devices, like I said, they were an ODM. They designed the devices as well, not just manufacture. An HP iPAQ for all intents and purposes is an HTC device, regardless of the fact that it says HP on there. The O2 X DA (silly smily forcing me to use a space) is 100% an HTC device, that's how they got away with being practically a clone of the iPAQ. It is not like with SoCs or GPUs, where TSMC/Samsung/GF only manufacture the designs handed to them. Nor is it the same as with PSUs, where the internals come from Delta, Seasonic or whoever else and then Corsair and such use those internals. An ODM does both of those steps in-house and while the design does pass by the brand commissioning the product for approval, the design ultimately comes from the ODM.

I-m using the Gmail app for emails and it has an option to "show images in an email" inside each email. It also offers you the option to always show images from a particular sender inside the email itself.
