Belief is a powerful thing and the belief of people like HTC CEO Peter Chou for HTC's products must be out of this world. In a rather surprising move, HTC CEO Peter Chou has said that he would step down as CEO should the HTC One not be successful.
Granted, HTC have not been doing very well with their other smartphone versions, but the HTC One is definitely a different Android smartphone. Amidst the current delays due to component shortage involving the HTC One, this claim by the HTC CEO sounds like a plea that users remain patient and give the HTC One a chance, at least until availability no longer becomes an issue for the HTC One.
While we have nothing but praise for HTC CEO Peter Chou's strength of belief, there remains the question of how to measure success or failure of the HTC One? If it were to just outsell its previous HTC smartphone predecessors this may not be too difficult. However, beating Samsung's current Galaxy S4 hype machine is a very daunting task even for a unique Android smartphone like the HTC One.
