HTC One On Sale in USA (Pre-Orders and Arrivals)?

With all this excitement over in the U.K. and Europe about the HTC release, we Americans are patiently awaiting some kind of news of a release date here. To my knowledge, there has been no update from AT&T, T-Mobile or Sprint since the initial HTC unveiling last month.
With whom and where in the USA did you make your pre-order, find a fully working demo, find an announcement for a release date, or receive your first HTC One?

No release date for US version yet
There is no information for the US version but I am also waiting big time.
I had a preorder from Hantec.uk but now the release date has been pushed back to at least March 25 so I have until then to see if the US version will come out soon after. If it is close I will just cancel my order and get from the US so I can also get the ATT warranty on the phone.

they said we are first priority, but i dont believe that, i feel like they are going to wait until the gs4 is released so they can release it at the same time, they did the same **** with the vivid when the gs2 came out.

HTC would have been so better off if they could have sold it's flagship phone before the Galaxy S4 takes over the Ad's. Too bad for HTC

Check out phonedog.com. They just had an article saying preorders for AT&T start today and the release date is the 21st.

While I would sure like to see something from att I highly doubt we'll see anything this week. They just released the Z10 for preorder yesterday or the day before...

Yeah, sadly it doesn't look like we'll be getting the One on the 15th here

we are always in the blue when it comes to phones.. with all this talk about delays i regret selling my One X so fast thinking HTC would stick to their word and actually release globally at once

You must be talking about the Blackberry Z10 going on pre-order today -_-

The only thing that really pisses me off about this is that it's going to make it a lot harder for us to do the Trade-In program here in the US

i think the cariers have a hand in this bc they want us to trade in with them instead of htc who would give us more for our device

T-Mobile reps keep saying 31st for release, 26th for preorder. As well as a friend who works at a local shop

I've never heard of at&t taking any phones back for a trade in. Sure you get a lower price signing up for a 2yr contract but not a trade in.
Also while HTC did have a hand in brokering the deal, they are not the ones running the program. Clover is.
I think the program dates will either be extended or we'll see something early next week for a release the week of the 24th. Probably the former unfortunately. Either way I'm not holding my breath though.

It just sucks that HTC has said that the USA is their largest target market, and we'll be getting it at the same time as the other countries, if not later it seems.

HTC has said in a few articles that the USA is it's biggest market. But now that it's not releasing on the 15th I'm speculating that we won't get the phone until everyone else.

HTC One in Canada.

Thought I would start this thread for those who have info regarding the upcoming release of the One in Canada.
I have pre-ordered mine through Rogers. I believe the pre-order ends on March 22. Perhaps that is when we may expect the release of the One. That's the most solid info that seems to be floating around.
Anyone have info related to the Canadian release date, please post.

Mobilesyrup stated that Virgin Mobile will also carry it.
But can i buy it from Telus and use it on Koodo? From my understanding, its the same company, same network, so will i have any issues? Some network incompatibility?
Just moving back to Canada and need to get a plan and phone so im leaning towards Koodo as it offers good plans.

Really hoping the production delays won't be affecting us Canadians too much. I'm keeping close tabs on Mobilesyrup for any news regarding the One's release. Didn't go w/ the pre-order through Rogers. Figured I'll probably get it faster if I check various Rogers stores the day it's released.

Yes,
I did the opposite. I bought a One V from Koodo outright ($175), put my Telus sim card in it and was up and running in no time.
A Telus or Koodo "locked" device work on either. My "my Telus Mobility" page even shows a Koodo One V as my current phone.

Be careful, MOST of devices work on both carriers, but som eare locked to Koodo or Telus. For instance, Blackberries are locked, you cannot use a Telus Blackberry on Koodo.

Any news guys?

Damn I am jealous of all you guys. I got an HTC One X+ about 4 months ago. I would love to have the One but I need to wait for the next iteration. I know for the vast majority of people the storage is enough, but I need at least 64GB. My one X+ has 4 GB free and it is 64. Here is to hoping for the next one. I love the build quality of HTC devices compared to other android vendors, and from what it seems this one is the best so far.

Yup, blackberries are unique because of BBM and the fact that their email etc has to be routed through their servers. That is also why all companies have smartphone plans, then blackberry plans due to the licencing fee. If it is not a Blackberry, it should be fine. The fellow I responded to was asking specifically about the One

I am hoping the 64gb version of the One makes it here (in black). If not, 32gb is fine for me at least. I got the One V as a temp phone cause I was pissed last years One XL and S had only 16gb versions for Canada. Almost jumpsed on the One X+ but figured i'd wait for the inevitable spring / MWC ish flagship that HTC always releases. I am glad I did.

I read that it would be available in March. I haven't read of any delays in Canada. Nothing other than they won't disclose a launch date and it is nearing the end of the month.
So perhaps it no longer is March.

"Merrill Lynch says HTC One will be released in four markets this month"
http://www.phonearena.com/news/Merri...-month_id40973
In fact, they just delayed even further the release on the other markets (i.e., Italy was March end, now is April 13th)

Wirefly sucks with preorders. I learned to stay away from them from the Evo LTE fiasco last year. Hopefully you have better luck.
I'm planning to be on T-Mobile, but not ordering yet because I want to be able to access all their towers.

Evo LTE fiasco...
Basically the launch delay due to shipments being held by US Customs (due to Apple infringement claim). As they were gradually let out, Sprint had first pick at them while third-parties (like Wirefly) were way down on the list. Don't know when their customers finally got them (I ended up cancelling). Learned my lesson! Not saying that you'll have the same experience, but since this is limited quantities, know that Wirefly will get the left-overs.

That is why I put "preordered FOR" and not "preordered FROM". Some people may get it from an AT&T store, some Best Buy, Some from HTC but that part isn't all that relevant.(for this poll).
The poll is also open until the 18th. If Tmobile doesn't offer it before that from them than it is not a pre-order .

Keep the votes coming guys! I know more people preordered than this .

I would be more concerned that you ordered the Black one for Sprint. The black version is not in the SKU system for Best Buy and it is not available directly from Sprint for preorder and they do not have the slightest clue when the black one will be released. (Expect end of May or June)

Verizon still the bad guys?

Hate to say it, but at least they never promised anything to anyone. Look at all the angry customers on every other carrier that promised and re-promised dates, and Play/Moto with their joke of a "preorder".
Maybe they knew something nobody else did, or maybe it was just coincidence with the extra time they like to take to fill up their phones with bloa.. I mean certify them.
On that note, does anyone have any feedback other than "nothing to report" from any of your Verizon reps yet? Mine still say nothing from the chain of command other than to keep pushing the Turbo.

So first u start off making it sound like its a good thing VZW isn't selling the phone. Then u end with wanting info about VZW releasing the phone :|
I would much rather have a chance to get it than none at all.

only latest vzw related posts I've seen are all the claims of effortless activation on vzw whereas Sprint is turning away people who ordered from Motorola, won't activate the N6 for them.....VZW, no problem

They aren't "activating" on Verizon from what I've read. You can use a pre-established SIM just fine. I don't think anyone was able to start new service.

The reason why its not being released on Verizon right now is because they don't play this out of stock BS. Unless they can have a set number of units to offer they will wait until stock is available.

I'd sooner suspect VZW wants to milk their Droid Turbo exclusive for a few months before bothering with selling Nexus.
When in doubt follow the money. Because at the beginning and end of it megacorps don't take a dump without debating how much $$$$$ they can rake out of it.

No doubt that's part of the equation. But they also probably are wanting to avoid a bad launch as well. My Edge up just came available. Going to wait to be sure the VZW version will be fully unlockable and play with one in person before pulling the trigger.

Any Sprint users?

I received the $100 off email yesterday. But I'm on Sprint. And I can't select Sprint on the pre-order site, so I haven't ordered the phone yet.
Has anyone pre-ordered a Sprint phone yet?

It hasn't even been announced when pre-orders will take place.

Me too, contacted Sprint, no tentative date of release. They need to get the ball rolling.

I'm waiting as well.

I must admit, I've been very excited for the release of this device. I've been a big fan of HTC since the Hero days and am still quite happy with and impressed by my trusty M7. The release of the 10 has, in my opinion, been nothing short of dismal. As evidenced by Samsung and even LG, you need to have your product available when the hype is at its peak. I'm really optimistic that the 10 will be worth the wait (despite not being water resistant, which would have put the thing over-the-top) but in this day and age people don't like to wait and with so many other great options available a struggling company can't afford to miss out on even one potential sale...

Totally agree. Should have been available at announcement.

Verizon is the #1 Carrier and seems to sell the most phones for HTC so I have no doubt that they were the first because of that. Back on the M8 sprint got the only harman kardon edition and I am think they didn't sell as many as HTC would have liked. HTC is trying to fix their profit problems in the US and one way to do that is to make Verizon happy. The sprint version will come. We already know a t-mobile phone will come as they did an un-boxing yet no announcement and I would assume its because Verizon rigged the game to be first. ATT won't sell it probably because they don't care to, they know people that want the phone want an unlocked/unlocked bootloader and will pay for it and they are possibly fine with that. Plus I assume they have have a better deal with Samsung and Apple where they make more money per phone sold. I will say it is sad to see that the unlocked version wont work on sprint, I think you can blame Verizon for that. This is only my opinion but verizon is opposed to unlocked bootloaders we all know, but since its CDMA it would be eaiser for HTC to make one "CDMA version" of the phone for both Verizon and sprint. It is still unclear if the unlocked version will have CDMA bands my guess is it wont. If it has CDMA the unlocked version has band 13 and should work on Verizon. That would be a big disappointment for sprint users since it does not have the 25, 26, 41 LTE bands. I am just glad I will be on ATT now...
I should add Verizon always gets their way, I cant wait till they day that stops but until then bye bye.

Really surprised there's not even a sign of when pre-orders are going to start yet. All the hype will be gone by the time that date arrives....

Yea, I mean I know it's first world problems, but I need a new phone and I want the new HTC.

saw a email (addressed to someone else) from a marketing VP @ HTC which said the sprint option would be available on htc.com on 5/11...take that with a grain of salt...it didn't mention if the option was to buy or pre-order, though you'd think by then it should be the option to buy!

Let's hope so

Still too far away, lol. Hopefully pre-orders start soon. Thanks for the info though.

So, no contract renewals for 199$ ?
We are expected to pay for the phone AND stay with Sprint using a phone that cannot be transferred to any other GSM network?
Somehow, GSM carriers are now looking good.
I have been with sprint since they kitted out as Sprint. Hope the above is not the only option.

Consider T-Mobile if the coverage works in your area. It's super fast in most big cities, the plans are reasonable and they are modding friendly.

But T Mobile will not have OMJ
