Insiders and tipsters aren’t always right. Could be from misinterpretation during a meeting, maybe the topic of ditching something was mentioned but never concrete, or, maybe it was put out on purpose to see the reaction from the world. The latter of those is actually a pretty great way to feel out consumers before a final decision is made without having to take any backlash after the fact. This leads us
back to the rumor that was going around about HTC dropping
Beats Audio from their future devices. Seem plausible after HTC quit bundling headphones with their devices and gave controlling stakes back to the company.
Even with those two fairly large indicators in place, HTC states otherwise. HTC’s Global Communications Manager put out a small, but straight to the point statement regarding that rumor.
HTC remains strongly committed to Beats Audio and including their innovation in our devices. Any rumor of HTC no longer integrating Beats Audio into our devices is categorically false.
Guess that about sums it up. Those of you that love the Beats software integration will continue to do so in your future HTC device purchases.
