Previously on the Internet appeared some rumors about potential purchase of HTC mobile section by Google, and people expected that HTC brand at any moment may disappear from mobile market, but situation in real is a bit different. However, in fact both companies reached an agreement, and yesterday firms signed a contract, but HTC still will make their own phones. How is that possible?
Whole deal is about acquisition of two thousand employees from HTC's mobile section by Google (this number of people was around 50% of whole employees in HTC mobile section). Other part of deal says about Google's access to HTC's patents and ideas. For this agreement HTC will receive over 1.1 billion of dollars. How we can see, HTC company will still be present on the market, but with fewer amount of employees we shouldn't expect many great and astonishing projects made by this company.
