HTC One, the next flagship Android-based smartphone from the Taiwanese handset vendor, is expected to arrive on shelves in the United States via wireless carrier T-Mobile starting with March 22, the latest reports on the matter suggest.

The best part of the deal, however, is reportedly the fact that it will offer support for the wireless carrier’s 4G LTE network out of the box, so that users could take advantage of fast data speeds while on the go.

At the moment, the wireless carrier is testing its LTE network in several markets in the country, but it has yet to roll it out to end users.

As HTCSource notes, the operator is aiming at providing 4G connectivity on LTE to over 100 million users by summer, and plans on doubling that number before the end of the year.
