[轉錄] HTC設計負責人離職消失

Scott Croyle, the man responsible for the stellar designs of HTC's One
smartphone line, is leaving the Taiwanese company. Having led HTC's
industrial design and user experience teams since his One & Co studio was
acquired in 2008, Croyle is now departing to work on his own projects. HTC
confirmed Croyle's plans to The Verge, though the company describes the move
as a "long-term transition" where he will remain involved with HTC product
development in a consultancy role for a few months to come.
"HTC remains at the forefront of smartphone innovation. Scott Croyle will be
focusing on special projects and dedicated on next generation developments."
Croyle will occupy this transitional role while handing off his full set of
responsibilities, the most important of which will be the development of next
year's flagship HTC device. His second-in-command, Jonah Becker, is likely to
take over most of his duties and step up to lead HTC's San Francisco studio.
In a potentially related move, Drew Bamford has been promoted from overseeing
the Sense user experience to being in charge of all HTC software and
services. The company plans to simplify its internal structure by
consolidating its user experience team much in the same that it did with its
industrial design and engineering group.
"Drew Bamford is an experienced and talented leader at HTC with solid track
records in leading and building our user experience team. Effective
immediately, in addition to his current duties in product development and
user experience, Drew will lead HTC Creative Labs and focus on innovative new
products and user experience strategies."
Bamford will report directly to CEO Peter Chou, who has expressed a desire to
return his attention to product design and leave the corporate side of the
business to others.
HTC's executive team has seen a lot of turnover in recent months, but
Croyle's departure is the most significant one yet. Amid consistently
slumping sales, the one bright light for HTC has been its critically
acclaimed leadership in design. Without the captain steering that ship,
there's now even greater uncertainty about how HTC will fare in the future —
particularly now that the company is trying to break into new product
categories like wearables and needs a clear vision more than ever.

個人認為
HTC好看的機種從Hero開始
Hero、Mozart、SS(?)、SSXL/TITAN、Radar
One X/S/V(?)、J、8X/8S、Butterfly、M7、M8
不論是不是塑膠或金屬，這幾支外型都很經典
如今總設計師離職，下半年/明年的外型會變的如何
還會有金屬機身嗎，還是用塑料玩新花招(8X)
就等等看之的機型如何變化
