HTC handset with voice-over-LTE capabilities coming to Metro PCS

Word has it that MetroPCS is getting ready to unleash another Android-powered 4G smartphone, this time a model courtesy of HTC that will be able to support voice over LTE functionality, making this device the first of its kind.

MetroPCS was the first carrier to bring an LTE handset to market, beating the likes of Verizon who has a speedy 4G LTE network of their own. However, neither carrier has released an LTE Android phone to date. Given that MetroPCS is a no-contract carrier, this device will not receive any discounted pricing.

No pricing or other information is available, as this is device has no name and has yet to be announced. Their network may be small, but nobody can deny the fight that MetroPCS has in them to try and compete with the big boys of the mobile industry. Tell us what you think in the comments below.
