Original Story – May 16: The HTC U11 was officially launched today and pre-orders are now open. The new flagship, known for its side-squeezing functionality, packs a Snapdragon 835 processor, 5.5-inch QHD display, and the highest DxOMark ever awarded to a smartphone camera.
We’ve already been hands-on with the unit and you can read all our initial thoughts at the link. If you’re looking to pre-order one now, these are the offers we know about so far.

The HTCU11 will be released on June 9 in the US, and HTC’s official site has the unlocked U11 available for pre-order for $649. It’s sold in blue, black, silver color variants, though red and white versions will be available in other markets.
Amazon also has the HTC11 up for pre-order in the US, coming it at $649 with free shipping. It’s set to ship the devices on June 9.
Sprint is the exclusive carrier of the U11, though the unlocked model will be compatible with Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T too. You’ll be able to pick it up in black or blue for $29 per month on a two-year contract, or $696 in total. Pre-ordering the unit at Sprint will also bag you two Amazon Echo Dots, valued at $49.99 each.
