Rumor: All New HTC One (M8) to be launched in early April (before the Galaxy S5)

We already know that HTC will officially announce its next-generation flagship Android smartphone on March 25. But when will the handset be available to purchase? Well, we don’t have any confirmation on this yet, but we are hearing that the All New HTC One could be available starting early April.

According to Russian-based website HTCFamily, the upcoming smartphone “is launching two weeks after” March 25. If this is true, we should see the new HTC One in stores starting April 8 - only a few days before Samsung launches its Galaxy S5 flagship.

HTCFamily was one of the first websites to reveal accurate photos of the All New HTC One, so it appears to be a reliable source. This, however, doesn’t make its claim a solid fact. It’s still a rumor.

HTC teased the new One several times until now, confirming that it would have a metal body, dual-sensor rear camera, and enhanced audio capabilities. We saw a few press renders of the upcoming smartphone (see here, here and here), plus a lengthy video showing it next to the 2013 HTC One.

HTCFamily says that the All New One will be available in 110 countries around the world. Well, we’re waiting for HTC to confirm all this.
