HTC has announced a new colour option for its flagship smartphone, the HTC One and for the HTC One mini. The new colour variant is dubbed as Vivid Blue and will join the three existing colour options - Black, Silver and Red for the HTC One while the HTC One mini will get a third colour option, with the other two being Glacial Silver and Stealth Black.

"A new 'Vivid Blue' HTC One and One mini also introduce a bold new option for those who want a handset that stands out from the crowd," HTC notes in the press release.

The company further mentions that the new Vivid Blue HTC One variants will be rolled out to selective markets from Q4, this year.

Earlier, the notorious @evleaks posted an image of the HTC One in Blue colour. However, there was no word on the roll out of the colour option. Another report suggested that the Taiwanese handset maker was working on the Blue variant of its flagship smartphone for a specific carrier.

Just to recap, the HTC One features a 4.7-inch screen with full-HD display. It is powered by a 1.7GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 processor along with 2GB of RAM. Connectivity options include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, NFC, Infrared and Micro-USB. The smartphone was launched with Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean) along with a brand new version of Sense UI. Recently, it was announced that the HTC One will get Android 4.3 by the end of September.
