Given Lenovo's consistent focus on diversity and choice as far as its Windows tablet and convertible laptop rosters are concerned, we'll admit we were a bit surprised to see the Miix 300 announced in just the one form factor back at MWC.

But now, a predictable 10-inch variant is as good as official too, and we wouldn't rule out this larger Win slate chaperoning…

HTC One M9+ and E9+ with Quad HD screens go on sale stateside via Amazon

If you're still enamored with HTC's classic (read ancient) flagship aluminum unibody designs, but peeved by One M9's "mediocre" Full HD display, the ultra-high-end M9+ and E9+ have finally become available in the US.

Unfortunately, there's a catch. Several of them, actually. For one thing, the factory unlocked phones are a bit on the pricey side. The beautiful all-metal One M9+ costs $799 in gunmetal grey or…
