HTC unveiled its latest premium smartphone, the U11, last month and made the smartphone available for purchase on its online store and Amazon last week. It seems that the device has seen great demand from consumers, as it is now out of stock on HTC.com and Amazon.

The HTC.com store no longer has HTC U11 smartphones in stock, all Amazing Silver, Sapphire Blue and Brilliant Black options have been sold. Amazon still offers the Amazing Silver color option of the HTC U11 for $648.36 and free shipping, while the Brilliant Black variant sells for $648.29 and free shipping.

The Sapphire Blue color option with a price tag of $648.36 is out of stock on Amazon as well and there’s no word as to when the stock will be replenished. The models sold on Amazon are all unlocked and compatible with major carriers in the US.

Ordered HTC U11 units should arrive in up to 4 weeks

HTC U11 units ordered from the company’s official website have a shipping date of between 2-4 weeks for the unlocked model which works on AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon Wireless, as well as for the version launched on Sprint’s network. Sadly, even the variant sold through Sprint is out of stock.

HTC U11 stands out with its Edge Sense feature which allows users to simply squeeze the phone’s frame and launch various applications, shoot images, search for contacts, and more. The smartphone comes with IP67 certification and managed to get the top score on DxO Mark, dethroning Google’s Pixel.

It runs Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 835 platform and has a 5.5-inch Quad HD display, with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal memory. A variant with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage will be made available in certain markets. The phone also has a 3,000mAh battery and comes with USonic Noise Cancelling Headphones and 3.5mm adapter. It features a 12MP rear camera with dual-LED flash and a 16MP front-facing sensor with f/2.0 aperture.
