So by now the rumored DNA+ is gonna be a reality, the specs are mainly the rumors at this point. My question is, do you think the Verizon version of the One or probably DNA+, is gonna be released sometime in June? At this point I believe enough people know about the One that if Verizon borked their version no one would buy it, so I think their version is gonna be the One or maybe have a slight spec bump. Do you believe itll be released sometime this summer or at the end? I can hold off on getting a DNA if the + comes out in the next couple monthes, not if its more than 2 monthes out.

All of these are rumors so no one entirely knows what big red will do. If your patient I would wait. Expecially if you want to unlock root and s off because right now the only way to do that on the dna is jtag. So if you can't go without root and custom roms then I would wait unless you feel like jtag.

So are there any pics yet of this so-called DNA+? I would think if it were to be released anytime soon there would be some sort of leaked pics, specs, or something by now. From what I've gathered just from brief looks at the ONE the phone isn't even cdma capable so I would assume if a version did come to vzw it would be completely different than any version of the ONE available now.

Only thing is a document about a phone codenamed dlx plus(the DNA was called the dlx btw) that went through Bluetooth testing.

HTC confirmed that there is a butterfly 2 in the works. (The butterfly is the international version of the DNA) and the phone might come out july-ish. That's the rumor anyways.

And, of course, add a minimum of two months for that Butterfly 2 to meander its way onto VZW.

Personally, I don't see much point in waiting 4-6 months for a phone whose only substantial differentiating features will be a 15% faster SoC and Sense 5, unless you still enjoy your current device.

The DNA came out before the butterfly.
