HTC One SV price and release date uncovered

Depending on who you want to believe we could see the 4G enabled HTC One SV arrive before the end of year or early in 2013.

Yesterday HTC announced that the One SV would be coming to the UK, bringing with it LTE connectivity, a 4.3-inch display, 5MP rear camera, 1.2GHz dual-core processor and NFC technology.

Within hours of the One SV being unveiled, pre-order pages popped up on the web, with Unlocked-Mobiles posting a tentative SIM-free price of £329.98, with stock expected to arrive on January 2.

Or is it?

However, Expansys has told TechRadar that it reckons the HTC One SV will make a special appearance before the year is out - on Boxing Day of all days.

Update: Expansys has now told TechRadar: "We now have a price on the HTC One SV - £349.99. The latest news on stock is that we expect the One SV to be ready to order in early January – final date TBC"

We're not overly confident with either of the prospective HTC One SV release dates, as both sites have changed arrival times for products in the past.

All we've heard from HTC is that the One SV will be available in "the coming weeks", with no further detail on price or availability as of yet.
