yep, amazon is right, but rest of the on line store get some high price.

Haha if it was inc. vat i would have already ordered It's a shame everything has tax They could at least take it off of the phones for us techy's

That is a price drop. I canceled my order two days ago and told them straight it was because Handtec was cheaper. Interesting..

Isnt the deal modaco has better? As its what maybe 15/20£ more exspensive but has a fair bit of extra goodies?

Getting the cheapest deal is not always the right choice.
I'd rather purchase my hardware from someone whom I trust and know should there be a problem they are only a phone call away and there to offer assistance.
Funnily enough it's the same name as the OP mentions... Clove Tech.
I've known Chris Love for nigh on 20yrs now and know although he sells hardware each of his customers are at the front of his continued commitment.
It's a family business with a strong sense of family values for it's customer base.

You can't order a black DHD because there won't be a black DHD nowadays. Maybe later!

If that's true, then HTC just lost a customer, I don't want a brown DHD, I want a black one. Can anyone confirm this?

you're seriously going to skip out on this phone because of the colour?

Yes, I think colour is all part of the phones aesthetics, and all I can seem to find mentioned colour wise is dark brown, although a lot of the pictures of prerelease devices seem to show them in black.
So unless I can get it confirmed that it will be black, I will have to look at something else (maybe just a HD2 with the Desire HD rom for a good chunk less money).
Might seem a little silly to some people, but I don't think brown looks very good on any electrical device.

Fair enough. The link above lists the DHD as black. It even has some pictures of the back. So maybe HTC is shipping black and brown versions after all.

Will have to wait and see, my preferred e-tailer (Amazon) couldn't state at this point whether the ones they'd receive would be black or brown, if they are mixed, or brown, I sure hope they change the pictures of the black device on their website.

To me the front is almost black, cause the screen ocuppies almost the total front area.
The back is most dark brown, but for the back I don't care much

As the phone has a 'unibody' design, the brown colour had to be applied. So it should not be beyond the wit of man, with the use of masking tape and a spray gun, to make it whatever colour rocks your boat...

Isn't a DHD a "Dial Home Device" anyway? Can't go stealing established TLAs for new devices....
Anyone got any official confirmation on the new 6th Oct release date?

handtec is receiving stock on the 4th Obctober

Just had an e-mail from Clove about the colour:-
It will be in Graphite which is a nice colour (v similar to Desire)
Back orders are strongly recommended as demand is very strong

HTC One Pre-Order Black Only

Thought I'd start a thread for black only devices as silver seems pretty readily available at most carries in the uk.
I Pre ordered from Vodafone on the 5th March and am sadly still waiting anyone else received any info regarding black apart from the fact it's looking like they will fulfil orders by 4th April.
Ordered a black ONE from Mobile Phones Direct. At the time of ordering they were showing a delivery date of 29th. Looking at their website now it is still showing as 29th so holding thumbs. I originally pre-ordered a black one from them on the 02 March with a delivery date of 15th, but cancelled it for a cheaper deal but later delivery date of 29th. Just as well because I got an email saying that the 15th order was delayed to 29th anyway, so saved some cash and no real loss. Can't wait to get my hands on it though.
I ordered my black HTC One from P4U on the 14th and got a dispatch email about an hour ago saying it will arrive tomorrow. Am I right to be very doubtful about this? Seems too good to be true haha

It's personal preference in the silver you can appreciate the design more then the black. silver stands out more. The only reason I prefer the black is because the last few devices I've owned have all been white, so looking for bit of change. Mind you I've got silver which looks brilliant.

HTC getting desperate too boost sales in US with new special

Looks like a 3 day sale to get thir sales numbers up. Their stock took quite a beating the last two days here in Taiwan over criticism they received fom analysts about their sales and CEO.
I would really like to see HTC do better than how they have been doing but reality is they need to get their act together if they want to sell 40 million smartphones of their HTC One and ompete with Samsung on their new Galaxy S4 model.
Listening o what the their customers (consumers) want is one and getting their QC in order is second.
Last few days stocks were doing well here in Asia but HTC shares took a beating here in Taipei. Local news media also called out faults on their new HTC One.
Any iPhone 5 owner who takes that is stupid. You can get way more for the device selling it yourself. For the older phones it's worth it.
can you please explain more what's happening in Taiwan, don't tell me the gap issue?

There's a rumor going around that Samsung is being investigated by the Taiwanese govt for paying people to post up fake reviews about the gapping issue on some phones. These people were blowing the problem way out of proportion and Samsung was paying them to do it. That's why the stock I think took the initial hit.

still not possible to get the ONE here in Austria - they should rather ship(produce more) the phones to get "better" sales. if there's nothing to sell, they cant make profit
It's kind of strange that they are so desperate to sell more units in the US, especially when they have long lists of customers in other countries still waiting to get their phone. And yes, I do realize that once the units have been produced, there are differences between them - but still. My order was placed weeks ago, and there is no sign what so ever that I will get the phone next week either. Bah, I'm almost considering getting the S4 now, I'm tired of waiting

well if u hv limited stock you want to hit key markets --- Austria isnt one..
If you have limited stock you will fail if you can't even fill the orders you do get - regardless of market. Having surplus stock in a market that obviously doesn't have the interest to buy at the price that will be profitable for the compary, while you at the same time lose customers willing to pay the set price in other markets because they don't want to wait any longer sounds like a sinking ship to me..

I think it was more then just a rumor. Samsung has always been sneaky. Fact though is I am not paid by Samsung and I just bought a new HTC One Developers Edition from the US and it came with a few minor scratches,few gaps and the yellowish screen. I posted about this in another thread. If I was not a HTC fan I would not have gone out of my way to buy the a developers a edition model from the the US and have it shipped to me here in Taiwan while the HTC One was being sold here in Taiwan with stock on hand if you have the right connections. I did not want a 32GB 3G model was why I ordered mine from the US.

Those were all year old posts though.
And frankly all companies turn to community to market their stuff. Some fanboys always go overboard. Sammy/HTC does not even need to pay them anymore, there are plenty who are voluntary fanboys ready to battle against other party FREE of cost
Anyway, the issues were and are real. We have seen plenty of pics here. But it look slike newer batches are better. My April 23 made unit is flawless.
Wow that thread got sorta OT really fast. Anyways, this let me get the $100 rebate despite pre-ordering it on AT&T and receiving it last month. And before anyone says I'm a terrible person, I already explained why I wasn't able to get the rebate before:
jcracken said:
Do you still have it? I had one, but I filled out the rebate ahead of time and "saved it for later." Now it won't load my old one and tells me my code has already been used. Contacting HTC results in them saying, "do this thing you've already done."

Just so that no one thinks I was paid to bash by Samsung. I have two Here to show that I currently own both. Have bought many HTC Devices in the past as well. I have seen better screens here in Taipei being sold to others. Mine unfortunately came with the yellowish screen. Next one I receive may probably be fine just like my HTC One X.

The screen with the warmer screen actually has more neutral color temperature and is brighter.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39461598&postcount=1
Also, that screen can be corrected easily with Screen Adjuster from GooglePlay by adding +4 to the red color. The cooler version of the screen though cannot be adjusted because it is not possible to remove blue with current apps, so people will have to wait for a custom Kernel with gamma controls to correct color temperature.
Honnestly, if you were lucky to get the more neutral screen, keep it! It is also 10% brighter.

Had to post this twice because for some odd reason I can only upload 1 image attachment on my iPad using the browser.. Here is another picture taken using my iPad of my older HTC One X with the same Google Finance application open and you can see that the whites here are much nicer. The new HTC One I received Compared to my whites on my iPad 3 they practically look very yellowish.
Cameras adjust white balance dynamically. The photos you posted are not useful for comparison.
As already mentioned earlier, the lower color temperature closer to reference and shows a better image in that regard.

Verizon to open their preorder 28th and they DO have leather & cheaper than BB

According to this Verizon will open prereg order direct tomorrow.
So as many of us know, Best Buy did not show the leather as being available only white, blue, grey. And they want $609 versus $550 direct from Verizon.
So, I might now bail on the Best Buy one I PO'd and order the leather one direct and forgo the $100 best buy gift card since I would have to buy the leather and since the VZW one is $59 cheaper + not having to buy a leather back, now the Verizon direct might be a better deal since I DO want leather.
BB = $609 + tax = 658.79 - $100 gift card = 558.79 + have to buy a leather back (60-80$ so say $60) = $618.79
Verizon = $550 + get leather (and maybe the plastic back I hope as some in the UK get a plastic when they buy the leather so 2 backs in 1 buy) - having to buy a leather back + less tax $44 = $593.98
OR.. maybe get BB to match the $550 price and then you are back to being ahead if you have to buy the leather back but I just called, and they say they do not price match... oh well. Tomorrow I decide if I keep the BB po or order the VZW direct.
ps - And these preorders will begin shipping before its in stores on Thursday, June 4 (which is when BB has earliest pickup).
I'm in the same boat... Lol... Finally pulled the trigger and pre-ordered from BB. But that leather is probably going to make me cancel too.... Choices.... Choices... Lol

Good for you for finding that. I looked at the time I posted on their site & that was not posted. I figured tonight @ 9pm I'd check as that would be the 28th on the east coast.
No matter who I order with - likely Verizon given my logic above - I'm all over the "freebies".
you can actually add the gray and white to cart on verizon. i was thinking about picking up a leather one. i also noticed tmobile leather and regular is same price as well
Ordered a black leather G4! With free 2-day shipping it should arrive 6/3 or 6/4.

I just did the same thing.
So now i have a BB preorder and a Verizon preorder 1 will get cancelled since the Verizon is set to ship 6/1 so maybe 6/3 or 6/4 delivery then I fully expect to cancel the BB preorder - the day I get the VZW phone - because as per above, the direct Verizon is a better deal IF you want leather - and I want leather.
Just cancelled my BB order. Getting the leather from verizon. Just a heads up... I had to call best buy to cancel... Online would not let me.
Or you can live in a state like me with no sales tax and still win leather back is useless unless you're planning on not having a case (which is just stupid).

Yes, it is the "black" one. And yes, they do not make it entirely clear and obvious, especially when on a mobile device.
Some might be able to find out today what we get in the box - and how the phone seems - since Verizon claims "select stores" will have them in shop to see as of today. My local shop did not.

Lollipop has barely been adopted and pushed out to phones - atiny laughable 1.6% of Android OS usage - and now they are on to something else. This is part of the fragmentation downside of the Android OS. Most are still on KK and JB. Some might even end up skipping Lollipop usage actually. And even if this phone can support M - which I bet it can - that could be a year away (or more) based on M offical release and then, the provider prepping it for the phone and then pushing it. M? I couldn't care less about M right now.

Sprint HTC 10 - Carbon Grey

At this point I have exhausted all options. I have contacted every possible department with Sprint to try and confirm if they will be carrying the Carbon Grey. I do not understand how a company has no idea if they will be carrying a specific color. I want to grab the phone, and have been holding out on ordering as I want to see if the Carbon Grey is coming. If it isn't, I would just go and get the glacier silver, but if the carbon grey is on the way then I will wait. Anyone have any information if they will in fact have it eventually?
Probably will be in a few months after sales start to decline for the glacial silver. No source, just thinking from their perspective

I chatted with HTC and t-mobile. T-mobile said they will be carrying all 3 colors when it launches tomorrow on May 18th. Take it with a grain of salt though as I am sure no one has any idea. HTC said when more stock is available of the gray, they will open it up to more sales locations. As you can see on HTC's website, the unlocked gray is backordered.
One thing you may want to consider if you're going to use a case for your phone, you won't be able to see the color of the phone for as long as you have the case on unless you get a clear case. I waited to get the Harman kardon edition of the m8 and for the first months it was cool but after that I never took it out of the case so color really didn't matter. Just my experience, you don't have to agree.

Hmmm...Well that is semi promissing. Maybe the carbon grey will be released eventually.
If anyone finds out that carbon grey will be coming please post! I am so ready to upgrade!

I saw that yesterday as well. I have no problem buying it from them if they are going to offer it first.
