Following its launch on Vodafone last month, the HTC One has landed on pay monthly tariffs from Three, EE, T-Mobile and Orange.

HTC’s latest hero smartphone is currently available for free on Three’s Ultimate Internet 500 for £34 a month and on The One Plan for £36 a month over a two-year term.

The former gets you 500 any-network minutes, while the latter comes with 2,000 minutes and 5,000 Three-to-Three minutes. Both tariffs are also packed with all-you-can-eat data and 5,000 texts.

EE, the UK’s sole 4G network, is offering the One for £46 a month, along with an upfront charge of £29.99 for the phone. In return, you’ll receive unlimited minutes and texts, plus 1GB of data.

The One is also available on EE’s partner networks T-Mobile and Orange on a range of 3G tariffs.

T-Mobile is selling the HTC One on its Full Monty plan at £36 a month and one-off fee of £69.99. This features unlimited internet and texts, 2,000 minutes and unlimited calls to T-Mobile numbers.

Orange, meanwhile, is listing the One on its Works tariffs from £36 a month, plus £49.99 for the phone, which entitles you to unlimited texts, minutes and Wi-Fi, 1GB of 3G data and one free ‘Swapable’ perk every month.

That leaves O2 as the only major network in the UK yet to announce contracts for the HTC One.

Standout features of the handset include a 4.7-inch Super LCD screen with a vivid full HD resolution and 469 ppi density, a 1.7GHz quad-core Snapdragon processor and an all-new ‘UltraPixel’ camera.

EE smartphone owners will soon benefit from average 4G connection speeds of 20Mb in ten cities across the UK, the carrier has announced, doubling the previous speed the network claimed to deliver.

EE has confirmed it is doubling the amount of 1800MHz spectrum bandwidth dedicated to 4G from 10MHz to 20MHz. The move will increase capacity and provide customers with headline speeds of up to 80Mb, up from 40Mb previously.

The ten cities where the supercharged service will be available this summer are Birmingham, Bristol, Cardiff, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leeds, Liverpool, London, Manchester and Sheffield, with plans to extend its reach at a later date.

Olaf Swantee, EE Chief Executive, said: "We are ensuring that the UK remains at the forefront of the digital revolution.

“Having already pioneered 4G here, we're now advancing the country's infrastructure again."

Existing EE customers in locations where the speed is being doubled will pay no extra for the faster connections.

According to the UK’s sole 4G operator, 25 per cent of customers are signing up for 4G. The company is targeting 4G subscriber numbers of one million by Christmas.
