Dont dream on DIY repairing the phone urself.

Be patient.
wait until the end of April

HTC must have enough replacement for RMA purpose.
with the phone seems like very difficult to repair.
one-to-one exchange is the only way.
HTC Malaysia better dont screw up.
Imagine phone send for warranty but got no replacement stock. people gonna rage.

LOL.

this will make future owner thinks twice.
premium feel but cannot repair.

I think i certainly will not get this because of this.

technically if ur phone warranty period is over, then game over coz the phone is unrepairable.

chill down guys.
please dont start another flamewar here.

IMO, its tue best marketing decision by HTC.
Coz Beats branding, many of beats fanboy is buying htc phones eventhough the sound quality sucks.

Im talking about HTC phones in general.
The One maybe will have a better speaker than the previous HTC phone no doubt about it.
The previous HTC phone, they never put in quality audio hardware (the DAC and speaker)even they market the with beats audio.

+1

just a simple TPU casing is enough.
