14 DAY TRIAL // HTC One has just arrived in the United States and is now available for purchase via AT&T and Sprint. Both carriers are offering HTC’s flagship smartphone for $200/€150 with a new two-year agreement.
However, customers who are willing to port their phone number to Sprint will be able to get the HTC One for only $100/€75 on 2-year terms.
Those who do not wish to commit to a long-term contract can purchase the HTC One for $550/€420 upfront via Sprint, whereas AT&T is offering the smartphone for $600/€460 on no-term.
All prices mentioned earlier are for the 32GB model of HTC, but customers in the United States can also grab the 64GB variant.
However, keep in mind that HTC One 64GB is exclusive to AT&T, so those who want to purchase the phone will only be able to get it from this carrier.
The 64GB HTC One is available at AT&T for as low as $300/€230 on two-year agreements. The phone can also be had on no-term for no less than $650/€495.
It is also worth mentioning both Sprint and AT&T are only selling the Silver HTC One, but Sprint claims the Black version will be available soon.
HTC One is also available for purchase in the United States from multiple third-party retailers, including Amazon, Walmart, Target, Best Buy, and more.
The Taiwanese handset maker confirmed the HTC One would ship with Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean operating system out of the box, but the phone is scheduled for an Android 4.2 upgrade in the near future.
“The highly anticipated and award-winning HTC One strives to reinvent the mobile experience with its full-metal, zero-gap unibody design; a re-imagined home screen with HTC BlinkFeed; a breakthrough camera that shoots hi-res images that come to life with HTC Zoe; and is the first phone with dual front-facing stereo speakers with HTC BoomSound,” said Peter Chou, HTC CEO.
