Muller and Phipps Launches HTC In Pakistan

I am not a very tech-savvy person; however I am always searching for a smartphone that offers exceptional experience. This time around, I was eyeing at HTC Desire 626G. However, to my disappointment, there was no local distributor of HTC in Pakistan. Then one day, I stumbled upon a news piece announcing that HTC is soon going to be launched in Pakistan by Muller and Phipps (M&P). I was already excited and this excitement doubled up when I received the invite to the launch event of #HTCPakistan.
