HTC, a leading smartphone maker, has partnered with the popular
online storage service Dropbox to offer 5GB free online storage to its
smartphone users. But only users of the latest HTC Android phones (HTC
Rhyme, Rezound etc.) will get the benefit of additional 3GB storage
apart from the free 2GB offered to anyone who downloads the free Dropbox
app to their handset.
Dropbox currently provides users with 2GB of free storage, with the opportunity to upgrade that to a maximum of 10GB by convincing their friends and acquaintances to sign up for the service. Now with this additional 3GB offer, reaching the 10GB storage mark becomes even more easy.
This deal was announced yesterday and confirmed in the Official HTC Facebook page where HTC wrote “We’re happy to share the good news with you here, first. We recently partnered with Dropbox! So, now Dropbox will come pre-installed on all Android phones, giving you 5GB of storage.”
HTC’s deal with Dropbox comes in the wake of the 5GB of free online storage offered by Apple through its newly launched iCloud service. The deal will soon expand to all smartphones running HTC Sense 3.5 OS, and will allow customers to sync their phones with any device running the Dropbox software to save their data online directly in the cloud storage.
