Taipei, July 5 (CNA) HTC Corp., a Taiwan-based smartphone brand, said sales in June rose more than 90 percent from the previous month through the launch of new mid-range models.
HTC posted consolidated sales of NT$1.46 billion (US$46.95 million) in June, which were up 93.89 percent from a month earlier but still down 34.46 percent from a year earlier.
The high month-on-month increase in sales largely reflected the smartphone brand's unveiling of its latest two mid-range smartphone models — the U19e and Desire 19+ — which carry starting price tags of NT$14,900 and NT$9,900, respectively.
The two models were the first new smartphones HTC has introduced this year. [FULL STORY]
