Samsung and Motorola may be HTC’s spot in global smartphone sale, but that doesn’t mean HTC will simply roll over and let the competition take over. HTC has just revealed their quarterly profits of $268 million on $1.88 billion in sales. Those numbers come in at 33 percent higher than the sale numbers reported for Q2 of last year. But the most astonishing figure might be that HTC has posted two record setting quarters in a row with Q2 outdoing Q1 by $280 million. HTC has not released any figures on how many devices they sold in the second quarter, but we can assume that the lion’s share of their increased revenue and profits is coming from Android rather than Windows Mobile.
With Windows Phone7 set to debut within the next few months, we are confident that HTC will continue to post some great numbers and deliver some amazing devices. For now, I guess we can just sit back and enjoy our Android phones and dream of mind-blowing phones HTC is working on with their big mountain of cash.
