The HTC 10 is HTC’s latest smartphone. It is a particularly important device because with the HTC 10, the company has moved away from its older naming scheme and has also adopted a brand new design, as if to indicate that the company is trying to start anew with their smartphones. Now if you’ve been meaning to get your hands on the handset, Verizon is now taking pre-orders.
As you might have heard, Verizon is said to be the first carrier in the US to sell the HTC 10 and it looks like it could be true. According to the pre-order page, the carrier has listed the phone’s delivery date as the 5th of May, or at least they are expecting that it will be delivered by that date. This is versus Sprint who will only be selling the phone come 13th of May, about a week after Verizon.
This seems to confirm the fact that Verizon’s exclusivity of the handset will run for about a week, but if you don’t mind waiting an extra week then we guess you can always opt to get it on Sprint. As for T-Mobile, the carrier had previously stated that the handset will be arriving in May so you’ll want to keep an eye out for it.
Unfortunately for AT&T customers, it seems that the carrier has opted to not carry the handset, making them the only major carrier out of the four to not offer the handset. We’re not sure why, but presumably you will still be able to use the unlocked version on AT&T’s network, although you might want to give them a call before doing so just to make sure.
