To continue naturally the flagship device line, the last year’s M7 and this year’s M8, which by common logic, a new device should be launched, and should be named M9 (unless HTC planned to create an all-new line of devices).

As you know, M7 and M8 was seen as the most appreciated in 2014. However, due to catch lately of the latest parameter, HTC honestly seems unable to reach the expect of HTC’s desire. But, this time is more different, it looks like HCT is all geared up to set the record straight with its next in line flagship smartphone.

If the rumor is true, there are some significant changes in store for the next HTC One. The report reveals it will repot a 5.5-inch 2560 x 1440 display, 3GB of RAM, a Snapdragon 805 SoC which are the expected upgrades. But, the HTC One M9 is also supposed to feature a 16-megapixel camera with optical image stabilization, it means that HTC could well be leaving behind the UltraPixel hardware. And, also, after selling Apple Beats, HTC had to seek for another audio partner as a tangibility, and that can answer why HTC cooperated with Bose. That means there could be even greater emphasis on multimedia in general, this time round. And, HTC may use an aluminum silicon-carbide composite for the body.

Lastly, a 3,500mAh battery is expect to create on the M9. Like the last two models, you can think of it to be of non-removable battery. And about the software, the M9 will have Android v5.0 Lollipop, which doesn’t really surprise to us. With international and Chinese OEMs constantly release many affordable flagships, HTC might want to make its own line a bit more acceptable.
