There is no information on a dispatch date but the handset is expected to arrive around the 15th of March.
Carrier EE will have the device on a number of its 4G price plans that includes the £41 per month package which needs an upfront cost of £69.99 for the handset, and for your money you will get unlimited calls and texts as well as 1GB of data on a two year contract. The HTC One will also be available on Orange and T-Mobile for the same upfront cost from £36 per month.

In the US AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile have confirmed to be stocking the handset, with Verizon yet to announce any plans for the device. There has been talk the HTC One could see a US release around March 22nd but this hasn’t been officially confirmed yet, while the 32GB version is expected to sell for $199 with a two year contract.
All of the major carriers in Canada are expected to carry the handset but as of yet no information has been provided regarding release date or pricing at the time of writing, although it is expected to be available in March.
