HTC One Release Date for Verizon on Now Set For August 15

The HTC One release date for Verizon is now set for August 15.

A leaked document received by Droid Life revealed the delay of the smartphone's launch on the carrier. It was originally expected to be available today.

One of the reasons for this could be the unveiling of the long awaited Motorola X Phone that is set to take place later today. The company did not want Google's new device outshining the launch of the HTC One on Big Red. Verizon could also want the rest of the Droid DNA stock to deplete before releasing the new HTC flagship.
