Ridgeland, Miss. (June 19, 2013) – C Spire Wireless announced plans today to introduce the highly anticipated and 4G LTE enabled, new HTC One® touchscreen smartphone this summer with key HTC Sense® innovations that reinvent the mobile experience and set a new standard for smartphones.

“The HTC One uses a new, exciting approach to re-imagine and re-invent the smartphone and the mobile experience from the ground up while complementing our industry-leading suite of personalized services,” said Kevin Hankins, chief operating officer for C Spire Wireless. “We’re excited to add this premium 4G LTE device to our growing portfolio of Android smartphones.”

Hankins said the new HTC One will come with a variety of HTC Sense innovations for customers, including:

  • HTC BlinkFeed™ provides a stream of personally relevant information to your homescreen including social updates, entertainment and lifestyle, news and sports all in one place without the need to toggle between applications and websites.
  • HTC Zoe™ gives people the ability to shoot high-res photos that come to life in three-second videos. It also automatically creates Highlight films comprised of HTC Zoe videos, photos and videos set to music with professionally designed cuts, transitions and effects.
  • HTC BoomSound™ introduces front-facing stereo speakers with a dedicated amplifier and Beats Audio™ integration for rich, authentic sound across music, games and video.
  • HTC Sense TV™ lets you use the HTC One as an interactive TV remote control. You can set it up in a few, simple steps to access electronic program guides, control a receiver, TV and home theatre right from the phone screen.

The touchscreen smartphone also features the HTC UltraPixel camera with a breakthrough sensor that gathers 300 percent more light than traditional smartphone camera sensors and delivers outstanding low-light performance.

The new HTC One is crafted with a distinct zero-gap aluminum unibody with an elegant curved back and weighs only 5.06 ounces. It sports a brilliant 4.7-inch, full HD 1080p LCD 3 display with 468 pixels per inch. Available in silver, the smartphone features HTC Sense with Android (Jelly Bean) mobile operating system running on a Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 600 quad-core 1.7 GHz CPU with 2GB of internal RAM, 32 GB of onboard storage and a 2,300 mAh battery.
