Cloud Storage Showdown: Google Drive, Dropbox, iCloud and More Compared
HTC Android devices to get 5 GB of Dropbox storage, free
Pocket Lint reports exciting news for owners of HTC Android-based devices:
Microsoft has Skydrive, Apple has iCloud, and now HTC has Dropbox following a new partnership between the phone maker and popular cloud storage service.
HTC has confirmed to Pocket-lint that users of its latest Android handsets, like the HTC Rhyme, will get a bonus 3GB of storage in addition to the 2GB of free storage offered by Dropbox if they connect to the platform with the new phone – launching in October.
The deal, which will extend to all Sense 3.5 devices in the future, will mean that users will be able to save files and photos on their phone and have them automatically synced to their computer at home or other devices running the Dropbox software.
