HTC One preview thread (was "Any M7 takers?")

Recommended Posts

According to phonescoop, ATT&T is claiming the only US vendor to supply 64GB model. I am really sick of exclusive deals!

 

If AT&T is any indication, though, the One will have a price advantage over the Galaxy S4, $199 to $249.

Wow 32 GB for only $200. That is a pretty good deal but of course it doesn't have removable storage so it only makes sense that it contains 32 GB stock.

 

I'll definitely be checking out the HTC One at the Sprint stores but I will not be a buyer.

Yes.. You get Unlimited Data!!! :lol:

 

I guess I can't argue with that.

Any freebie's from sprint if you pre-order?

Do you have an old device to send back to HTC? I signed up for the HTC $100 deal and surprisingly they will still give me $100 for my TP2.

 

That should help some if you are buying off contract.

Right now the only devices I have laying around are two ppc-6700's(Apache), everything else I ebay'd.

That is a no brainer if you can still get $100 for an old HTC TP2.

So who all is going to pick up the one on the 19th? I'm pretty sure at this point I am.

 

Thought about maybe starting a thread to compare One performance vs EVO LTE in regards to LTE. Performance as in sitting in one specific location and testing the RSRP of the One and EVO LTE at the same time, picking up and holding a LTE signal while moving around, etc. I'm hoping it is improved with the One in all those areas.

What the hell, I will get it on the 19th but what I will do is move my evo over to my other line and retire my gnex. I will also be back in atlanta on the 18th so I can make decent comparisons for anyone else that wants to know how it performs as far as lte connectivity goes.

This says its $199 for a NEW 2 year. Will I not get it at that price if I'm just upgrading? Or does renewing the contract count?

 

If you qualify for an upgrade then you will get it for that price but of course you will have to renew your contract as well.

Getting this phone is mildly tempting but I'm pretty satisfied with my Evo LTE. My dad gets an upgrade this year... maybe I'll get this for him. Or give him my phone :D

Has anyone seen any unsubsidized pricing (on AT&T or Sprint)?

 

I, too, am curious, but my guess is about $600, which is patently ridiculous and reveals the farce in the subsidy system.

Not sure where I read this but I heard that the sprint version will be $549

    • T-Mobile has saved its 28Mhz mmWave licenses by using the point to point method to do environment monitoring inside its cabinets.

    • Yep, there is a label on the side of the box but it doesn't provide any useful info that the city doesn't already provide (Crown Castle Solutions is the franchisee). You can see my graphical interpretation of the city's dataset here.

    • Totally agree.  In my county and surrounding counties, TM did not place n-41 on every site.  When I look at the sites in question, I probably would have not placed it there either.  I can find just a few with n-71 only and in most of those cases if you live there and know the probable usage of the residents, you would not do a full upgrade on those sites.  One site in particular is set up to force feed n-71 through a long tunnel on the Turnpike.  No stopping allowed in the tunnel. No stores, movie theaters, bathrooms, so n41 would be a waste.    n25 is not really needed either, so it is not there.  The tunnel is going through & under a mountain with more black bears than people.  TM was smart.  Get good coverage in the tunnel but do not waste many many thousands of dollars with extra unused spectrum. I also see sites with only n71 & n25.  Again this makes sense to me.  Depending on what county we are talking about, they moved much of their b25 from LTE to nr.  Some counties have more n25 than a neighboring county, but luckily, it is plenty everywhere.   When you are in a very rural area, n41 can run up the bills and then be barely used.  I am NOT finding sites that should have had n41 but TM failed to provide it.  They may have to come back later in a few years and upgrade the site to n41.  However, we just may eventually see the last little piece on Band 25 leave LTE and move to n25. I am not sure if the satellite to phone service is using band 25 G block as LTE or nr. We also can possibly have at least some AWS move from LTE to nr at some point.  Yes, everybody wants n41. it is not justified in some cases.  When I travel, I desire some decent service along the entire route but it does not have to be 1 or 2 gig download.   If I can get 50/5 on a speedtest with data that will flow and not stutter, I am very happy. Yes, they will swap out the USC gear.  TM needs to match their existing network. The USCC equipment did the job for years, but it is time to retire it.
