Agreed. Other company's high end phones are running Snapdragon 800 (Z1, LG G2, Xperia Z Ultra, Note 3 etc.). HTC One Max is going to be launched as an last gen phone.

Unless..this is not a high end phone. The lack of aluminium unibody construction, fat body.. if its priced alongside Z Ultra & Note 3, I see no reason to buy this phone.

Oh, HTC Malaysia service also like crap. That puts the nail in the coffin.
