The conditions of the deal/s may have changed since the initial publishing of this post.
How fast things move in the quick-paced world of smartphones. Just introduced yesterday in Barcelona at a special event, the HTC One XL for AT&T can now be pre-ordered at Best Buy. First, we need to point out that the model that AT&T is offering will be called the HTC One XL as opposed to the international model called the HTC One X. That is because the latter will be powered by the quad-core NVIDIA Tegra 3 while the former has a dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 under the hood.
A call to some Best Buy stores revealed that the big box retailer is accepting pre-orders for the AT&T One XL. While a final price of the device is not known, right now $50 will reserve a unit for you. The device is expected to be released sometime in April. Ah, one last thing. We are told by Best Buy that the re-orders are being accepted in stores only, which might explain why you can't find it online.
With a 4.7 inch Super LCD 2 display featuring resolution of 720 x 1280, the pixel density on the HTC One XL comes in at 312ppi. A dual-core 1.5GHz Qualcomm QSM 8960 is under the hood with 1GB of RAM aboard. 32GB of native memory comes with the phone out of the box and the 8MP camera captures 1080p video. The 1.3MP front-facing camera takes self-portraits and lets you video chat.
So who is on the way to Best Buy to reserve their HTC One XL?
