HTC One M9 Plus

HTC has temporarily pulled the One M9+ from sale across several retail stores in the Netherlands.

The company has also issued an official statement regarding this move, though it does not reveal why it is exactly pulling the phone from the market.

“HTC puts the quality of its products and providing an optimal user experience first. In that context, we are currently investigating the HTC One M9 +. This device we have to pick that reason temporarily, from the sales. Once more is known, we will let you know. Thanks in advance for your understanding and patience.”-HTC

However, a report states that the Taiwanese company has pulled the One M9+ from the Netherlands due to some issues with 4G LTE connectivity.

The One M9+ uses a MediaTek chipset and modem, whose baseband are not as advanced as Qualcomm, so this reason does seem believable. Nonetheless, whatever the issue might be, it is likely that the company will issue a software update to try and fix it.

If that does not work though, the company might just be forced to recall all the units that it has already sold in the market, which will further add to its trouble.
