The 4.7″ LCD 4G-ready One XL is HTC’s high end device with 1.5 GHz dual core processor on Android 4.0, and was first released in June.
Telstra’s push on HTC’s 4G phone comes as Apple released its high profile 4G ready iPhone 5 last week, to mass demand.

However, it must be noted Telstra’s 4G coverage is not available entirely everywhere in Oz yet, although is in capital cities, most metro and nearby areas and is expanding to cover two thirds of the population in coming months.
However, the telco says it has the blue tick, which appears to suggest the smartie is suitable for use in rural areas.
There have also been warnings this week from the Communications authority of high bills on 4G LTE ready devices due to faster data consumption.
