HTC 10 “Thank You” gift is now arriving to customers who pre-ordered
July 04, 2025
HTC’s latest flagship smartphonemay not be a One, butit’s certainly a 10– in many ways, perhaps. The device, which has received near-universal praise for its premium metal build and powerful parts inside, comes at a time when its maker needs to score some serious sales to survivethe stressful slump it has been slugging through. Sadlythe fruits of its labor have yet to be realized, but from the very beginningHTC wanted to thank those customerswho expressed early interest in the device.
Multiple reports around the web indicate that the Taiwanese OEM is now shipping its promised thank you gift to those customers in the USA who pre-ordered the phone directly from its website, HTC.com:
As can be seen in theabove picture from Phone Arena, the mystery token of appreciation is none other than an extra USB Type-C cable. While this might initially seem as a bit of a disappointment to those expecting something like a case or free Vive for example, givenhow many problems there arecurrently with third party USB-C cords, getting a freeofficialone directly from the manufacturer of the device it’s intended for is a definitively decent doing.
With an extra USB-C cable, it is therefore possible to leave one at work, school, or even in the car, and keep the original one safely at home. The fact that it’s even packaged in an official product box no less, as opposed to simply throwing a random cord into an envelope, also serves to indicate HTCwanted to make the presentation as professional as possible.
For those who need a recap of the HTC10, specs include the following:
