AT&T release date?

[oshogg]

So, any speculations on when HTC One X will be released on AT&T?

I really would like to get one.. but not sure when it will really show up..

My guess is the between the first and third weeks of April. The Lumia 900 launches March 18th so they need to give it a little breathing room, and not suffocate unsuspecting consumers with overwhelming choices. although I am guessing the price points will be slightly mis-matched. Sooner the better in my eyes

 

[junodragon]

Yeah, I'm really looking forward to this one too. I just returned my Note to get the One X!!!! Hurry Up AT&T!!!!

A couple of sites have reported the Euro version would be showing up across the pond in early April, and that the US at&t version would be hitting in the early part of the Summer!

I really hope that the at&t version doesn't take that long! But if history has shown us anything it's that there is usually a 3-4 month window from the time an Android phone announcement happens, to when it actually releases in the US. This way of doing things is terrible, and all these manufacturers should have learned from Apple already! Make an announcement, and them 2 weeks later follow through with a release.

Early summer would be an absolute joke.

they will lose a ton of customers if they go that route...I will bombard their facebook page with messages...Last phone I bought was the Atrix, announced at CES and launched a month later...that is 100% ok with me...3-4 months...no thank you. HTC will go right down the tubes if they pull this off in the USA

I predict that it would be released sooner in the U.S. only because they had a branded AT&T phone already and the announcement was already made. They also have a dedicated HTC website devoted to the AT&T version. Usually when AT&T pulls the "months later delay after Europe" scheme, you typically don't see all of this already being done and in fact oftentimes AT&T won't even mention it. Look at the HTC Vivid and how it made it's way to AT&T - months after release in Asia - and there was no real announcement made with AT&T prior - only speculation.

But I'll not pass anything by AT&T. lol

they answered in very timely fashion on their FB wall stating that the One series would begin shipping in April with global availability in Q2...No specifics other than that...hopefully the US gets in on that early April shipment

That is so annoying. Q2 could mean the end of June. I don't see what the big deal is about just saying when the phone will be out.

I agree, I'm tired of the ambiguity involved in giving a phone a simple release "time frame". We don't need an exact day yet, but give us something to plan around other than Q2. Just saw on another forum that AT&T is field testing the device and based on previous phones that puts the One X on par for a Mid May release. I am sure we will hear rumor after rumor until an official announcement is made. May will not be a deal breaker for me, but anything longer might. Like everyone else interested in this sleek device, a roundabout date from the manufacturer would be nice!!

Its Amazing...Apple for years has been giving us 2 week time frames, along with an exact date after they announce any of they're devices. Meanwhile for as long as I can remember, mostly all announced Android devices take months to become available after an announcement. I agree that an exact date (while great) is not 100% needed, but at least saying the month a device will be available is needed at this point.

As per current internet chat...The U.S. will not be seeing the HTC One X until June because of some manufacturing issues. Just Fantastic HTC, Fantastic!!!

 

[chief113]

I haven't seen that anywhere. June I mean. What do you mean per Internet chat?

Good article. I mean the news in it sucks, but it was informative.

Lol...For the most part it gets us to the point of not getting our hands on an at&t HTC One X...

Damm you HTC...

 

[shea-bird]

I have a hunch it will be out well before June. Att is already field testing in US. there is not hard evidence about that manufacturing shutdown anyway. I say mid April-early May

 

[junodragon]

I hope AT&T releases the One X soon because I just returned my Note and I'm dying here. I'm tempted to get the Vivid to hold me over until the One X comes out!!! How true are the rumors of the delay because of the manufacturing chip delay?? I really hope its mid-April to May like shea-bird says!!!

I'm goin with late May/early June!

Reason 1- Note just launched and doing very well.

Reason 2- The Galaxy Skyrocket HD is due out very very soon.

Reason 3, and most important - Chip issues are prob true! And if they are, HTC is not going to allow a phone with issues to be released stateside by at&t...HTC has alot riding on the One series.

 

[shea-bird]

There are a lot of variables, but HTC also said it wanted a near simultaneous global launch. Whether or not the manufacturing issues are true is yet to be seen. HTC is holding a press conference in april and I suspect the ATT version will follow shortly after. I would hope that means a mid April-May release date. The thing is, no one knows for sure and until we get some concrete data, it is all just speculation. Here's to hoping its sooner than later. like the rest of you I am ready for an upgrade and patiently waiting

 

[junodragon]

Where did you hear that HTC will be having a press conference next month shea-bird? Do you know around what date next month? Will they announce the HTC One X for AT&T then?

I saw on androidandme that same thing. They said HTC was having a us event sometime in April.

Is anyone else super annoyed with AT&T? How is it they they announce a phone in February, and Sprint already has a release date? AT&T still has said nothing. Wtf?

I thought sprint only had an announcement date?

I just mean that they said AT&T would carry it back in Feb.
