HTC Americas today announced HTC Advantage, a new commitment to its U.S. customers that includes repairs and operating system updates.
Under the terms of the program, HTC will offer a one-time free screen replacement to all One series devices sold after February 18, including the One, One mini, and the One max, during the first six months of ownership. The repairs will be performed in Houston. Further, the company is committing to provide all One series devices core system level updates for a period of two years after the initial launch date for each device.
Timing of updates will vary depending on carrier, but HTC will deliver them as soon as it is able. HTC Advantage also offers customers free online storage for back-ups. Owners of One series phones will enjoy 25GB of Google Drive storage at no extra cost for a period of two years.
Last, HTC is offering free backups through its own HTC Backup program. HTC Advantage is only available in the U.S.
