Considering the One X+ is 38k and the Butterfly is 45k, I would be very surprised if this was under 40k.

Can always hope.

Just because (IMO) HTC might considered they're not flagships for a longtime and may be they wanted to make money with less no.of devices sold. Just like Sensation XL. It was priced at 38k at launch and One X was priced at 37k.

Sensation was 39k sensation xl was 43k so what. You can see it will be priced competetively to fight from galaxy s4 and xperia z and zl

Re: HTC One Indian buyers only

Considering htc butterfly was up for preorder at @560£ compared to htc one pre order price of @425£ 36-38k should be the price of HTC ONE

Could be.. But I thought the Butterfly wasnt for sale in the UK

I went through the pricing on clove.co.uk for other phone manufacturers (lumia 920, S3, note 2) and the price before VAT is similar to the prices in India..

But for HTC phones (one x, one X+ and 8x) the prices after VAT are similar to the prices in India.

:confused:

Re: HTC One Indian buyers only

At most we have to pay 38-39k at launch. Which will go down just a month after its release to somewhere near 35-36k so if you can hold on then just wait for galaxy s4 to arrive so that you can really choose the best ONE for you ;)

    Guys just an ADVICE

    If you get any HTC Phone and feel that there are some defects in it...for example if you say dead pixel or body construction issues with HTC One you can DEMAND a DoA* ( Defect on Arrival) certificate from HTC Service centre within 14 days of purchase with no questions asked.

    How does DoA works.
    1. Once issued by HTC customer care or service centre people , one needs to go down to the store where he got it from along with the box and complete set of accessories and DoA certificate and hand it over to the store guy and take other SEALED UNIT of same product or any any other product of SAME VALUE

    No one tells this thing...however, this is the policy ...so guys dont worry go for HTC one if any problem go for DoA certificate as per the service policies of HTC.


    hope this helped....

    cheers

    It's not HTC but the distributor and retailers who are charging... DP is an indicative figure... They are all making the most of the shortage... Simple economics...

    Continuing from the above post...

    I asked my dealer yesterday. Known him for ages and his mobile store is a rented shop owned by my friend. He told me to wait 10 days. Said the same thing happened with S4 when launched, despite the supplies being in massive numbers.

    This is a tactic used by local branch offices and regional distributors (who are not technocrats at all). The mobile retailer hardly gets any margin these days. Such launches allows them to make a quick buck in the first 10 days when over enthusiastic people like us will pay over the odds to get our hands on the device first. That way, the branch/distributor does not have to give extra schemes to the retailers and they also settle their previous accounts by such favours.

    Sad but true, this is a rampant practice in mobile and consumer electronics industry. There is MRP, DP, and then MOP. Consumer should get material at Market Operative Price. That way he gets a decent price and the retailer gets a 'survival' margin. For practical purposes, most material is sold between DP and MOP, which too is fair enough. Like has been pointed out time and again, despite what's printed - the new MRP is Rs.42,990, the DP is Rs.40,990, and MOP, which is mostly not written (purely my guess) should be around, Rs.39,500. And hence a price of Rs.39,900 hits the sweet spot.

    Sites like Snapdeal, Indiatimes are not actual traders per se, and outsource supply of goods to other vendors, but subsidise from their marketing budgets to draw consumers in the hope they'd sell them profitable products in the future. Hence Rs.38,500 is their price, where they end up subsidising by about a Rs.1,000 below MOP. But then we all know more the people involved, more the chances of confusion and time delays.

    Everyone is a grown up here. So I request people to stop blindly enquiring about prices. Don't join the mass hysteria and you won't be a hysteric. It's that simple.

    Am a big fan of the device and getting one but am a bigger fan of not being held ransom or being blackmailed. I'll wait for 7 more days.

    Just my two cents. Not really inviting a debate or a discussion on this, only my opinion. Feel free to agree or disagree but let's not pollute the thread. If people are unhappy about what I've written, please feel free to PM me. I'll gladly delete the contents of this post.

    And yes, for people who want the experience right now, well, a small premium won't hurt them.

    Got my Dev Edition !!

    Today I have received my ONE Dev Edition, it's such a beautiful device that you can't move your eyes from it. Crafted with passion. Feels so smooth in hands. No gaps, perfect finish. It shows how hard work HTC did to bring it to perfection.
