The handset vendor said today it is pushing back the phone's arrival of preorders in certain markets to the end of the month, with a formalrollout to other markets in April, according to a company representative. HTC told CNET last week that Singapore wouldn't get the One until April.
HTC previously targeted the phone to launch globally this month.
It's another setback for a company that could ill afford another hiccup.HTC has struggled to turn around its flagging profit and sales, and had its hopes pegged to the One to reverse its fortunes.
No reason has been given for the delay, but it could potentially be the complicated process of manufacturing the all-metal frame around the phone. The company told CNET last month that each body takes roughly200minutes to cut and process the front and rear parts of each unit.
HTC is also running into a bad bit of timing, with Samsung Electronics scheduled to show off its GalaxyS4 at an event in New York on Thursday.
