Reasons for having two phones...?

[X0LARIUM]

Just wondering there is the 820 & the 920.
And now 8X & 8S..


What's the idea behind them?

Is it to offer different specs? Different designs? Offer different price?

Why not focus on ONE device which is a stunner??

Just a question..not arguing or anything..

Different price points. Cheaper versions of phones means more customers.

Lower price points for discount carriers.

The 8S and 820 would both be great prepaid phones.

Bingo! Just what I thought u guys would say...HOWEVER... here in India, the 800 & 900 are pretty much close...of course those specs are now redundant..

But its not like they will b poles apart...

The 820 and 920, as well as the 8S and 8X, are a lot more different across handsets than prior generation devices. You've got resolution, processor speed, graphics chipset and cameras all as differentiators now.

HTC even pulled the storage of the 8S down to just 4 GB (likely to get to a price, if I had to guess).
