It took them too long to improve Windows Phone OS... I am buying an iPhone 6 in September if they make me wait that long.
Hi, I sent a mail to HTC support requesting for information of when WP8.1 update will be available for HTC 8X and following was their reply:
"We understand how important it is for you to have your phone upgraded to the latest available operating system in the market. Our goal is to give every customer the best possible experience on every phone. We only update our phones if it will provide an overall improved user experience as we balance features performance and usability. As of now Windows 8.1 update is not schedule to be launched for HTC Windows Phone 8X."
I have replied back to them requesting for a specific timeline. Hope to get a positive answer from them!
I also sent an email to htc Ireland and this is there reply.
Thank you Michael for the Email, HTC will release the 8.1 update to the 8X devices soon (probably in the next couple of weeks) our support team still doesn't have confirmation regarding the specific date so I can only suggest to keep in touch with us via FB/ Email in the next couple of weeks but we believe you won't need to wait long.
I already have the 8.1 preview and just yesterday received the first update and installed
1. "As of now Windows 8.1 update is not schedule to be launched for HTC Windows Phone 8X."
2. " HTC will release the 8.1 update to the 8X devices soon (probably in the next couple of weeks)"
Which of those 2 Is the correct answer?
Joe Belfiore said on twitter the 8.1 GDR1 will be available soon for 8X (meaning a firmware update from HTC) https://twitter.com/joebelfiore/status/4974581824410214411. "As of now Windows 8.1 update is not schedule to be launched for HTC Windows Phone 8X."
2. " HTC will release the 8.1 update to the 8X devices soon (probably in the next couple of weeks)"

Hopped in on DP the other day for my 8X. No Update 1 yet of course but there's more than enough in 8.1 to hold me over! Extremely impressed by how my 8X is handling 8.1!

Thank you so much for using HTC products.
do you have 3 Column tile option?
Absolutely. Didn't think I'd like it. I do. Didn't think I'd use the notification center. I do. Didn't think I was missing much before Cortana. I was.
