"The designs I’ve created for this special edition of the HTC One mini mirror the transition in style from my previous season’s collection to my upcoming one which will be presented during London Fashion Week. Pushing boundaries and exploring new techniques play a huge part in how I bring a collection together - taking part in this project has been a very exciting experience for me and an opportunity to find inspiration from working with new materials."-David Koma
"The dynamic and daring nature of David’s work is a perfect fit for HTC, where our goal is to enable and encourage young talent to drive change through creativity. These exclusive editions of the HTC One mini celebrate the simple beauty of the original handset we created and turn it into a must-have collector’s item for anyone who is a fan of David’s unique style."-Peter Frolund, General Manager, HTC U.K.
