AT&T pre-orders for HTC One to begin April 5th for $249.99

This leaked document says that AT&T will take pre-orders for the HTC One starting Friday

A leaked picture of a training document for AT&T reveals that the nation's second largest carrier plans on accepting pre-orders for the HTC One starting on April 5th. The price is $249.99 for the 32GB model of the phone with a signed two-year pact. That contradicts the $199.99 price for the phone that we saw saw on the Radio Shack sign for the Sprint version of the model. According to the leak, the phone will available in two colors, Silver and Black and AT&T is not putting up any signage in its stores for the beginning of the pre-order period. The 64GB model won't be ready until later and will cost $299.99 on contract.

The HTC One will be available for Sprint, T-Mobile and AT&T while Verizon is expected to sit this one out. Still, with some funky things happening to the HTC DROID DNA's online listing, there are some who feel that a version of the HTC One will end up at Verizon. Meanwhile, the three carriers that are definitely getting the phone each will apparently offer different pricing.Based on the earlier Radio Shack sign, it looks like Sprint will have the HTC One for $199.99 on contract. If the leaked document that accompanies this article is legit, AT&T's variant will ring up the register at $249.99 on contract and T-Mobile is expected to allow you to buy the phone with a $99 down payment and pay for the rest monthly.

16 GB for $199.99 32 GB for $249.99 64 GB for $299.99 Still better than $299.99 for 32 GB for the iPhone 5.

I heard there will be no 16GB version for AT&T. That really sucks as for $50 more you can get the Note II. Not a really good strategic sales marketing move.

Of course there's no 16GB version for AT&T. It doesn't exist. The phone will only come in 32 & 64GB varieties & the latter is exclusive to AT&T.

Switch to T-Mobile, you won't regret it. Of course this is going to get a lot of dislike and that's only because people had bad experience with T-Mobile when T-Mobile didn't offer the iPhone and the iPhone from AT&T, or any device from AT&T for that matter, didn't support T-Mobile frequency bands and people who brought their devices were only getting 2G, Edge. But now, T-Mobile is reframing 37,000 of there 52,000 towers to support 4G (hspa+, for devices not purchased from T-Mobile ) and 4G LTE!!! It's a really good time to switch to T-Mobile....I've been with them for 8 years!

So just like the S4, the price on the one is 249 as well. AT&T would get much better sales if they would sell it for 199 like sprint.

They should have priced this at 199 if they want to attract more potential S4 buyers.

I am so glad I am on T-Mobile!!! Great service and now great phones, and don't forget our LTE Advance that gets up to 60 Mbps (real world tests) and has 4G(hspa+42) to fall back on! I am never leaving T-Mobile now!
