The HTC U23 Pro release date has now been and gone, but only for Taiwanese markets, however pre orders for the phone in the UK are now live (though not yet for the wider EU release) and you can pick up a pair of free wireless earbuds when you do! We also now definitely know the HTC U23 Pro specs & HTC U23 Pro price.

Although we still don’t exactly know when the broader HTC U23 Pro release date will be, we can make a decent stab at an estimate. See below for all the latest.

HTC U23 Pro 5G release date

The HTC U23 Pro launch date was been confirmed by the company as Thursday 18th May, 2023, and sure enough, this is when the new device was revealed. It was released in Taiwan immediately after.

As for the global HTC U23 Pro release date, we don’t know when it will be coming out in wider Europe, but the UK release date has been confirmed as the 5th June, 2023 for the Coffee Black color model, and 28th June, 2023 for the Snow White color.

*OLD* The HTC Desire 22 Pro was revealed/launched on Tuesday the 28th June, 2022, then actually released on Friday 1st July, 2022 (though it came out a month later in the UK on the 1st August).

If the same pattern repeats then we predict the HTC U23 Pro 5G release date to land on the Friday following the launch – which would be the day later on 19th May, 2023. The UK release (and for other regions) may again come later though.

UK pre orders for the HTC U23 Pro are now live. You will be able to pre order these devices until June 4th (the day before the full release when pre orders will be delivered) and you will receive a pair of free HTC True Wireless earbuds valued at £69/$86.
