Already available in silver, red, and black, we’ve been hearing a blue version of the HTC One was in the works since @evleaks first leaked an image of device toward the beginning of August.
Since then, we’ve been on the look out for the variant, fully expecting to hear the device would be a carrier exclusive. Little did we know the device was actually a store exclusive, and that the metallic blue HTC One will be available only at Best Buy stores for Sprint, AT&T, and Verizon (sorry, T-Mo customers).
While officially available starting this Sunday, September 15th, the device has already arrived at some Best Buy locations across the country. Apparently Best Buy has an exclusive on the blue color til the end of the year, after which it’s possible we’ll see the device appear as an option via the usual channels. HTC promises some kind of promotion will also follow the new blue color option, but details haven’t been revealed just yet.
We have to ask: anyone planning on picking up the HTC One in CyanogenMod blue?
I like the Red better.
No red on Verizon…:(
Me too, once I saw it I got one.
I hate how new color variants like this always come out MONTHS after the device launch.
Interested in this but Best Buy is asking $699 for the One does anyone know if they will price match the $599 Verizon charges?
Highly doubtful if you are buying out of contract.
Yeah no contract .. Do not feel like giving up the unlimited yet and while I have 4.3 on my Galaxy Nexus I would like a new phone.
No, but… maybe a cyanogenmod blue case on my Note3 could be in the cards… :)
Bring on the mega!
Best Buy already has them in stock and is selling them. The blue is darker in person and probably the nicest color I’ve seen on a phone.
I would have preferred these new color variants that are coming out now . However, I do not regret getting the silver version when it first came out. Bones are beautiful have free
Must Have Blue One!!!! (see what I did there :))
