This morning, T-Mobile announced that it will be opening up pre-orders for the HTC One M9 in store and online from tomorrow, March 27th at 6am Pacific/9am Eastern. The device will be $0 down with 24 monthly payments of $27.08, giving it a full retail price of $649.92. And if you do pre-order it, T-Mobile will get you the device before its official launch day on April 10th. Meaning you’ll be among the first people in the U.S. to own one.
“The HTC One has built a fanatical following, and the M9 will be a favorite whether you’re a fan boy or soon-to-be convert,” said John Legere, president and CEO of T-Mobile. “And with Carrier Freedom, there is absolutely nothing stopping anyone from picking up HTC’s latest at the Un-carrier.”
Head on over to the HTC One M9 page on the T-Mobile website to register your interest, or bookmark it in time for tomorrow. And do let us know if you plan on pre-ordering. Let’s just hope the T-Mo system copes better with this device than it did with the iPhone 6, Nexus 6 and Galaxy Note 4 launches last year.
