Only 9 countries will receive the HTC U11 with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of native storage
HTC has produced two different versions of its new flagship phone. The HTC U11 found in the U.S. at Sprint, or unlocked from HTC, features 4GB of RAM and 64GB of native storage. But another unlocked version of the U11 comes with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of native storage. While the latter model isn't coming to the U.S., you can still have it imported to the states (more on that below).
So just exactly where can you find this enhanced version of the HTC U11? A tweet sent out by ROM developer @LlabTooFeR lists the nine countries where the higher spec'd variant of the phone can be found. They include China, Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore, India, Hong Kong, Russia, Saudi Arabia and the Philippines. This is a preliminary list, and more countries could be added to it as time goes on.

Meanwhile, the Sprint branded model can be pre-ordered for $696. At HTC.com, the phone can be pre-ordered for $649. Again, this is for the version with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of native storage. A company in Chicago called Overseas Electronics is an importer offering the unit with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of native storage for $749.99. Keep in mind that the unlocked HTC U11 is compatible with Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile.
The phone is expected to ship later this month. Check out our review by clicking on this link.
