According to documents leaked to TMoNews, users on the carrier an expect a T-Mobile HTC One release on April 24th.

The leaked planograms point to two different store configurations in addition to the device’s launch date. Planograms are retail documents that highlight exactly what products will be available at specific locations and their exact location in relationship to other products in the store.

Right now, T-Mobile’s public relations team is neither commenting on the leaked document nor confirming the date in the documents.

News of the impending launch of the HTC One comes on the same day as analysts monitoring supply chain changes on the HTC One noted a significant uptick in the amount of HTC One devices, HTC will be able to ship in the near future. According J. P. Morgan, production shortages are no longer dogging the handset. It had been speculated that the device’s UltraPixel camera would make the device harder to come by, thus insuring that HTC would have a hard time selling a large amount of devices to users out of the gate.
