HTC One M9’s Uh-oh service will reportedly cover all accidental damages, even carrier swapping

HTC One M9 DSC08393


The battle between the next-generation of Android flagships is heating up. While it’s increasingly becoming harder to compete on raw hardware alone, OEMs are now forced to get a little more creative, looking to software or other services to gain that edge.


Last year, we saw HTC introduce the “HTC Advantage” which — aside from promising to deliver major Android releases for flagship devices — also offered a free, 1-time replacement of the display on an HTC One M8. It was a nice gesture, even if it was only limited to the first 6 months of the device’s life. For the One M9, HTC could be 1-upping that service on every level.


As Android Central is now reporting, HTC could be planning to introduce their new “Uh-oh” replacement service (this is more than likely what HTC was planning on announcing during tomorrow’s event). The service will cover a new HTC One M9 purchase for up to 1 year from date of purchase and not just the display — any accidental damages that may befall the phone. Water damage. Fire damage. Earth damage. It’s all covered.


Probably the most interesting addition is carrier swapping is also covered, meaning if you change carriers during this year, you’ll get a free replacement to a compatible One M9 wherever your travels may lead you.


Suddenly, those early “overheating” reports don’t sound like the end of the world after all, right?
