Certain HTC products pass US customs

21 May, 2012

HTC has announced that some of its detained models are now passing the US custom review process and will reaching the carriers shortly. Exactly which models have passed is unknown but HTC is working closely with the US customs to ensure the issue gets resolved shortly.

You may have heard by now that the AT&T HTC One X and the EVO 4G LTE were detained by the US customs office due to a court order by the ITC because these handsets were doubted to infringe a patent owned by Apple, for which Apple had won a court case. But as it turned out later, HTC had already taken care of the problem before shipping the units by tweaking the software.

It seems all the people who were waiting for their precious new phones would finally be getting them shortly.
