HTC Windows Phone 8S hits the FCC with North American 3G

All HTC’s Windows Phone efforts in the US this autumn have been focused on the high-end, through the Windows Phone 8X. The phone supports both AT&T and T-Mobile HSPA bands, unfortunately however without the LTE that every American carrier would want.

The 8S is officially destined for Canada (and not the US), and even if still without a named carrier, we’re most likely looking at a budget Canuck provider such as Mobilicity or Wind. At least the frequencies will be a comfort to the gray market US importers who want HTC’s Windows Phone aesthetic on the cheap.
