HTC One Launches on T-Mobile With Free Car Dock
The HTC One is now available on T-Mobile and comes with a free car dock when purchased on the carrier.
The device is available on the carrier in a special Glacial Silver version.
There are several different plans for purchasing the HTC One on T-Mobile. The first will run the buyer a flat fee of $579.99. The second plan requires a $99.99 down payment up front followed by $20 every month for 24 months. The total price turns out to be the same with either plan.
The HTC One was originally due out a month ago. HTC had originally hoped to beat the Galaxy S4 to the market, however, due to issues with camera components, their releases have been brought much closer together.
The smartphone features an all-metal unibody. It also sets a new standard for specifications in the smartphone market as it comes with a Snapdragon 1.7GHz processor, LTE, NFC, 1080 x 1920 display and full 1080p video recording. The device can be purchased through various retailers including Best Buy, Radio Shack, Walmart, Target, Amazon.com, Costo, Car Toys, and Sam's Club.
The smartphone on AT&T will also cost $199.99 with a new 2-year contract, according to the company.
This is the price for the 32GB model of the device, according to Engadget. The AT&T exclusive 64GB version will end up costing a bit more and will take a little more time to be released.
After some issues with components, HTC had to push back the device's release in order to meet customer demand. And even with those problems, the HTC One was still able to stir up a huge buzz throughout the U.S., according to the company.
