The HTC One has made its way to Japanese carrier KDDI under the J One moniker. The device sports the same beautiful aluminum design, but now packs a microSD card slot for storage expansion.

The HTC J One also differentiates from its international sibling by the additional IR transmitter just below the camera. Right there's also the FeliCa logo for NFC-based payment capability. It isn't yet clear whether the KDDI version of the HTC J One will sport a removable back cover as the Chinese version of the device (http://www.gsmarena.com/chinese_htc_one_802w_has_microsd_card_two_sims-news-5807.php), but that seems to be the only place where the card slot could be located so it probably does.

The HTC J One will make its debut on Japan soil in early June. You still have enough time to check out our full HTC One review (http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_one-review-912.php) to decide if it's the right fit for your pocket.
