The HTC One M9 is now officially available in the United States as earlier rumored.

The HTC One M9 is currently available from multiple US carriers. This follows the initial release of the HTC One M9 which went on sale in Taiwan as early as the middle of March.

But questions arise on how much attention the HTC One M9 would garner especially since its release comes practically simultaneous with the pre-orders of the Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge.

Although the Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge are still in the pre-order stages since it is expected to reportedly come out on April 10, the advantage that the HTC One M9 has at the moment is that it is immediately available for some carriers. For other carriers, it is still in the pre-order stages.

The HTC One M9 carries practically the same design only that this time it will have a two-tone look over the previous aluminum design. That includes a mixture of either a silver with gold trim and a gunmetal gray and black which should become immediately appealing to anyone looking for the latest Android device with a stylish look.

To give customers an idea on how much one would cost, an outright purchase of the 32GB variant is priced starting at $649 from the HTC store.

To refresh your memory, the HTC One M9 features a 5-inch 1080p full HD display and is powered by a Snapdragon 810 processor. It also has 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage which is expandable through the microSD card slot feature.

The HTC One M9 also has an impressive 20.7 MP rear camera while up front is a 4 ultrapixel shooter. It will rely on a 2,840 mAh battery and will run on Android 5.0.2 Lollipop.
