It was already being rumoured that HTC would not launch its upcoming flagship, believed to be the HTC One M10, at MWC 2016. The company at the trade show unveiled some mid-range smart phones including the Desire 530, Desire 630, and Desire 825 instead. However, with LG, Samsung, Sony, and even Xiaomi showing their flagship handsets, HTC didn’t want to be left behind. The company has resorted to social media to get its flagship known. It tweeted a teaser for its HTC M10 smart phone.
The image in the tweet made on Wednesday shows nothing more than the chamfered edges from one corner of the device along with the hashtag #powerof10. Looking at the image and the history of the ‘One M’ series, the smart phone in question is likely to feature a metal body. The release date of theHTC One M10 handset however remains an unsolved mystery. The One M10 has been leaked in images multiple times in the past. Last week, an image said to be showing the One M10 popped up online. The smart phone in its White colour variant is seen featuring design that looks strikingly similar to the HTC One A9, which launched last year.
Earlier this month it was tipped that the smart phone will sport a 12-megapixel Sony IMX377 camera sensor, with 1.55um pixel size, laser autofocus, and phase detection auto focus (PDAF) at the back. The front-facing 5-megapixel UltraPixel camera will be powered by Samsung s5k4e6 sensor. It is worth mentioning that the rear camera sensor is the same as the one used in one of the top-rated Android smart phones – the Nexus 6P.
Until now, we’ve heard the handset will be featuring a 5.2-inch QHD resolution display along with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 820. Also tipped is that the smart phone will be running Sense 8.0 skin on top of Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow.
