Red HTC One goes on sale in the UK

A ‘Glamour Red’ HTC One has gone on sale in the UK, with retailer Phones 4u exclusively offering the brightly hued handset.


Formally unveiled last month, the red HTC One joins the original black and silver toned renditions of the Samsung Galaxy S4 rival and features the same high-end array of specs just in a new, more vibrant brushed aluminium shell.

“Phones 4u has a proven track record of securing colour handsets exclusives for our customers and we’re extremely excited to be working with HTC to offer them this exclusive opportunity to own the HTC One in Red,” Scott Hooton, CCO at Phones 4u said in announcing the UK exclusive last month.

Philip Blair, President of EMEA at HTC added: “The new HTC One in Glamour Red showcases the power of our flagship model in a colour that demands attention, whilst maintaining the high standard set for sophisticated design and build quality.”

Offering the eye-catching phone on a variety of networks and tariffs, Phones 4u has confirmed that the red HTC One will be available on EE, Vodafone, T-Mobile, and Orange.

Available for free on a £38 per month, two year contract, the red HTC One will come paired with 2GB of monthly data, unlimited calls and unlimited texts.

A true powerhouse of the smartphone scene, the HTC One runs a 4.7-inch, 1080p Full HD display alongside a speedy 1.7GHz quad-core CPU and Google’s Android Jelly Bean OS. With a 4-UltraPixel rear-mounted camera, the HTC One specs sheet is rounded off by the HTC Sense 5.0 UI and a second, 2-megapixel snapper up front.

Is this the first decent look at the rumoured HTC One Mini

Weve heard rumours, read about leaked specs and potential release dates, but now it appears that the HTC One Mini handset may be in front of our very eyes.


Engadget has posted a pic from a "trusted source," claiming to show the shrunken 4.3-inch device up against the flagship 4.7-inch counterpart.

If the picture is genuine, the smaller iteration of the device will maintain the aluminium unibody that was such a massive hit on the original HTC One.

According to the photographer who provided the leak, the phone will pack a scaled back 1.4GHz  dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, compared to the originals quad-core offering.

As of right now, the source claimed the device is packing the Android 4.2.2 the latest version of Jelly Bean, as well as Sense 5.0, with HTCs new Blinkfeed feature.

As to whether the UltraPixel camera tech will make its way onto the smaller handset, well that remains unclear, but full HD video is apparently on board.

The report didnt commit on screen resolution either, although previous leaks have suggested that a 720p display will be in play rather than the spectacular full HD offering on the original.

Engadgets report said to expect an announcement this "fall" whereas Bloombergs report yesterday had suggested an August release was on the horizon.

Only official word from HTC will settle the matter which, at the moment, we dont have.
