Verizon road map leaked; HTC One coming August 29th
One of our loyal PhoneArena readers has dropped off a nice surprise in our in-box on Wednesday morning. Our source has presented us with a Verizon road map that takes us through the rest of this month and includes such eagerly awaited models as the new Motorola DROID Ultra, the Motorola Moto X and of course, the HTC One.
Let's start with the Motorola DROID Ultra and the longer lasting Motorola DROID Maxx. Both are expected to launch in Verizon stores on August 20th. On August 23rd, as previously leaked, the Motorola Moto X will be released. LG's high end flip phone, the LG Exalt, comes to Big Red on August 29th. That same day, Verizon will start offering a new side-sliding QWERTY model called the LG Enact which will replace the Samsung Galaxy Stratosphere II on the roster. Also on August 29th, the Motorola DROID Mini will become available along with the Samsung Convoy 3. While Verizon won't be offering the waterproof Kyocera Hydro Elite in stores, it will offer the model online, also starting on August 29th. Obviously, August 29th will be a busy day at the nation's largest carrier.
And that takes us to the HTC One. The Taiwan manufacturer's Android flagship phone will launch for Verizon on August 29th, joining the other models expected to launch on that day. The information that our tipster passed along to us made it clear that the HTC One will be replacing the HTC DROID DNA. The latter has already been pulled from Verizon's web site.
