This Taiwanese smartphone brand is reaching out to its Filipino fans as it opens concept stores in different strategic locations here in Manila. The HTC Concept stores hit the 2nd Floor Cyberzone of SM Mall of Asia and the Digital Exchange in Glorietta 3. Aside from these stores, they also opened one in Davao City. Apart from the 3 mentioned, they also have an existing store in SM Megamall. And I wonder when will HTC come to Cebu?
