HTC One M9 & One M9 Plus Leaked? Photo Shows Edge to Edge Display! Plus Release Date, Specs, Features & Price
Prospects interested about HTC's One M9, popularly dubbed as "Hima," could now be looking at the real thing.
That's because a new leaked image has emerged, sporting two different smartphones, believed to be the upcoming HTC flagships. As told by Engadget, the photo was uploaded by well-known leaker Evan Blass.
Blass accompanied the leaked image with a cryptic caption,"Old habits die hard..."
Specifically, it must be noted that the models were thought to be the standard HTC One M9 and the larger model, the One M9 Plus.
The leaked models also depicted a number of interesting details, such as a huge selfie snapper, edge-mounted front speakers and a physical home button (seen on the larger model).
One notable feature is the screen, which showcased an all-glass, edge-to-edge display of ultra-thin bezels. It goes to say that the devices definitely looked premium.
Interestingly, the new leak is observed to be different from previous renders. As it turned out, HTC reportedly made use of dummy cases to conceal the real thing, HTC Source noted. Considering that Blass has been a trusted leaker, are we really looking at the newest HTC flagships now?
