HTC Says One S Coating Problem Is Limited , Offers Immediate Fix
There were reports that HTC One S ceramic coating gets chipped off very easily. HTC has responded to the issue and says that the issue is limited to a few units.
Here's the full quote from HTC:
“HTC is committed to delivering a high quality product and great experience for all our customers. There have been a few, isolated reports of this issue. The finish on the One S was laboratory tested as being at a hardness similar to ceramic. While that's hard, it doesn't mean it's impossible to damage. Regardless, HTC takes quality very seriously and are providing all customers with an immediate fix and we are implementing some small changes to ensure customers do not experience this issue in the future.â€
The users who have faced the issue can take their handsets to the store and get a replacement unit. This should be within the DOA period , after that they will fix what’s covered under warranty.
