NEW YORK, April 19, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Preorder the HTC 10™ from Verizon beginning April 29 and get it first when it launches in early May. Verizon will be the first wireless provider to offer the HTC 10 when it's released, so you won't have to wait to get it.  Want to try it before you buy it? Come into any Verizon Wireless store on April 29 and get a hands-on look at the HTC 10 during our exclusive in-store preview.

Make the most of your HTC 10 with Verizon's 4G LTE network, ranked highest in network quality across six U.S. regions by J.D. Power for the third time and, most recently, rated tops by Root Metrics in metro area network reliability.

Crystal clear images and sound

The HTC 10 not only keeps you connected to friends and family, but it captures those special moments clearly with optical image stabilization on both the front and rear cameras. With the HTC 10, you'll create vivid, sharp photos that you can easily share on your favorite social networks or print and hang on your walls.

The HTC 10 records video in 4k and 24-bit high resolution audio and features HTC BoomSound™ Hi-Fi edition dual speakers providing a studio-quality listening experience.

With Verizon's HD Voice, you can make and receive calls that are as clear as talking with someone face-to-face when you call other compatible HD-enabled smartphones. HD Voice also offers Wi-Fi Calling and lets you talk on the phone while using your favorite apps, so you can still surf the web, download files or use your HTC 10 as a personal hotspot.

Custom flexibility and fast charging

With HTC's new Freestyle Layout, you no longer have an on-screen grid that dictates where you place your apps. Instead, you can get creative by dragging icons, stickers and widgets anywhere you like. In addition, the HTC 10 comes with the latest quick charge 3.0 Rapid Charger, so you can top off your battery in minutes, not hours.
