Design-wise, the new HTC Bolt looks like a larger version of the HTC 10: it also comes with an amazing QHD Super LCD 3 display, a stylish full-metal unibody design and is available in the same colors Gunmetal, Glacier Silver. But it has a larger display with 5.5 inches and surprisingly a flat back instead of a curved one. HTC’s new flagship weighs 174 gr, measures 153.6 x 77.3 x 8.1 mm and is IP57 water-resistant which means you can go swimming with your phone up to 30 minutes without damaging it.

For your personal data, 32GB of internal storage is available that can be expanded up to 2GB via a microSD card. The new HTC Bolt runs Android 7.0 and is powered by a powerful 3200 mAh non-removable battery. Additionally, it is a single Nano-SIM smartphone with connectivity options such as Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, NFC, FM, 3G, 4G which supports Sprint’s high-speed LTE network.
