But unfortunately, the facts speak otherwise precisely, where according to the Gartner report, as reported by DigiTimes, Taiwanese vendors this would have frozen out of the 10 largest mobile phone brand.

Understanding market conditions as hostile to its products, HTC reportedly ready to fix it by strengthening its product marketing sector.

As stated by the HTC CEO, Peter Chou, it is ready to improve and strengthen the position of product marketing, in order to resolve and overcome the challenges they face in today's market.
