The change starts with HTC trying to generate various acronyms for “HTC” that is aimed at making people talk about HTC. In addition to starring in Ads, the popular big screen actor – Robert Downey Jr will also help to shape the creative direction of HTC.

The HTC’s Change campaign will roll out in three phases and the first phase will be about what the brand HTC means to its customers and the different acronyms program was a part of this. The second phase of the campaign seems to be more relevant to HTC’s industry in which it aims to show how HTC has changed the mobile industry with features like BlinkFeed, Video Highlights and BoomSound.
