HTC is not going through its best moment. After too many quarters offering disastrous financial results, the manufacturer is having real financial problems. And its quantification bracelet focused on athletes, the HTC Grip, is the first affected by this crisis.
Do you remember the HTC Grip, presented in the last edition of the Mobile World Congress? Well, it seems that it will not finally reach the market until early next year 2016, almost a year after its presentation.
HTC Grip will be delayed until 2016
The Taiwanese manufacturer has issued a statement to the Phandroid portal where they excuse themselves as follows:
“As we continue to develop the Connected Fitness platform and elevate our product offering, Under Armor and HTC have decided to launch a fully integrated digital ecosystem of products early next year.. This global launch will provide the tools necessary to help athletes of all skill levels quantify, manage and improve their health and fitness. Our teams have done a remarkable job with these products and we are excited to share them with the public soon. "
Come on we will have to wait if we want to get an HTC Grip. A mistake that can be very expensive. Presenting a product and launching it with such a difference makes potential customers lose interest in the product and look for other options that are available in the market.
A new mistake on the part of HTC, and it does not have much room for maneuver. His other great claim, the virtual reality glasses HTC Vive, has also suffered a delay and will not hit the market until next year. Will the HTC One A9 manage to revitalize sales in time?
