A quick heads up for our friends in Canada — Telus has just dropped word that its HTC One is now available for preorder, ahead of its scheduled April 19 availability. The Canadian Standard Contract — ah, the ol’ CSC — brings the price down to a mere $149, but that’s for a ridiculously long three-year contract. Purchased outright, the HTC One will run $659.
Around the end of 2013, the HTC M7, which would ultimately become the HTC One, and the Samsung Galaxy S4 were the talk of the town. Rumors popped up on a daily basis which ultimately culminated with the two device launches which happened in the last few weeks.
