Major telecommunication companies in the United States, AT&T and Verizon, have confirmed on Thursday, May 17 that they will be offering the RED Hydrogen One smartphone.
Premium smartphones with advanced features typically come with more expensive price tags. So, in most cases, purchasing devices through network carriers give customers flexible payment schemes instead of paying the entire cost all at once.
Both in AT&T’s and Verizon’s announcements, however, details are scarce whether they will offer subscription plans bundled with Hydrogen One so that customers can pay for the device through their monthly bills.
However, Verizon did imply that their “Verizon Up” subscribers have special perks that can be applied when purchasing Hydrogen One. “As a Verizon Up member, every $300 you spend on your wireless monthly bills earns you a reward. That includes device dollars you can put toward a new phone like the HYDROGEN ONE. And you don’t pay interest when you finance it over 24 months,” the company explained.
Same with RED, the carriers have also skipped on providing an exact release date for Hydrogen One. But AT&T did mention that they will start selling Hydrogen One “later this summer.” AT&T also announced that they are going to be the only company to hold an event where customers can have a first look on the holographic mobile device at the AT&T SHAPE scheduled on June 2-3 at the Warner Bros. Studios in Los Angeles, California.
As for Verizon, the company promised to release Hydrogen One sometime “later this year.”
RED has been known for manufacturing high-end cameras intended for filming and photography. So it is not surprising that one of the highlight features of Hydrogen One lies in its viewing experience.
RED has been marketing Hydrogen One as a smartphone for content creators, thanks to its 4-View Holographic feature that is promised to surpass what 3D viewing experience has to offer. So far, it has also been confirmed that the device will be powered by Snapdragon 835 chip and will sport a 5.7-inch display.
Hydrogen One is anticipated to be priced at least $1,200.
