Release date, carriers?

**Joe the Insider** · 08-07-2013, 03:28 PM

Do we know yet when Verizon and others carriers will be releasing it? I think it's dumb when a phone is announced, But no release date.

LG just said Q3. I'm guessing September.

Verizon will probably get it after everyone else. Just teasing. But most Android announcements are like that where they just tell you the quarter or season it's being released. I think Apple is the only one that announces their device and let you know the date it's going to be available for purchase at the same time. It's going to be released in Korea first then North America so let's keep an eye out for their release dates.

6 weeks where? 6 weeks when it will be initially released? Because it's supposed to be released in Korea first then North America to follow. So I would guess 2-4 weeks after initial release overseas.

one thing I had read is that the total launch is supposed to only last 6 weeks total through all 130 release points. This article states that it will roll out next week in Korea:

So within 8 weeks everyone should have it in their hands

Verizon did tweet that it was coming, but not when.
I can wait. This is the phone I'm buying to replace my Droid Razr HD.

Edit: DL says 8 weeks, not 6 weeks.

Translation for Verizon customers: Every other carrier will have it within 4 weeks, but we're going to wait until the very last day of the 8th week to launch it because we're spiteful sons of bitches.

O2 and Three confirmed for the UK. No specific release date yet.

**scorpiodsu** · 08-08-2013, 09:17 AM

Yeah I don't think anyone has confirmed a specific release date. Just says in the coming weeks. I did see that Korea is getting very soon so I'd imagine a couple weeks at most after that is when it will start rolling out to the major markets.

Verizon really dropped the ball with the HTC One. The big thing is that Verizon never said they were going to carry the One when it was launched. Granted of course they did mess up with the One once they officially tweeted they would sell it. I think this time, showing that they are going to carry it on the day the device was launched gives better hope they will sell it around the same time as everyone else. Kinda like the Samsung Galaxy S IV.

**xgman** · 08-08-2013, 10:42 AM

Just double the amount of time that everyone else gets this and then you will know the date that Verizon will.......

Agreed. Whenever I see the word 'Soon' in a phone or service announcement I want to slap someone in the face with a fish.

**jwyche007** · 08-08-2013, 04:56 PM

I'm hearing Verizon and T-Mobile will get it first and it will be some time this summer. I'll try to find the report I got that from ASAP so no one thinks I'm just pulling things out of thin air.

Verizon drops the ball on every phone launch except droid branded phones and the iPhone.

It's been confirmed launching in the UK late September for £469. Anybody getting it over there? I think that the price is damn impressive personally.

Seems like end of September is the general consensus.

**DestinedtoGame** · 08-14-2013, 04:42 PM

The sign up page went up today for Verizon. So one can only deduce that it will be out very soon =D

This is very much just a guess, but on that page the phone shows a date of Thursday, October 3. Anyone think that is the release date? I sure hope we don't have to wait that long.

I will say this true if the big one for the HTC One coming on September 5th is true. Outside of that, I don't get where people think these dates on these phones are true or not....

I don't necessarily think it is or not. Just thought it could be some under the radar way of them sort of saying it. I was just throwing it out there.
