HTC was once the world’s largest Android OEM. But now, the company barely releases new smartphones. Even if it does, most of them are exclusive to its home country Taiwan like the newly launched HTC Desire 21 Pro 5G. That said, despite unveiling a new device yesterday, the firm may announce another phone soon in the form of HTC Wildfire E3.
HTC’s Wildfire series of smartphones were one of the popular models in the early Android days. But in the past few years, the company has been using this brand for budget smartphones. The latest entry in this series will be the HTC Wildfire E3, as per a Google Play Console listing.
The listing reveals some key specs of this upcoming HTC budget smartphone along with its front design. First and foremost, this handset will come with a dew-drop notch and some visible bezels around the display.
According to the listing, the phone will sport an HD+ (720 x 1600 pixels) panel. Going by the entry-level MediaTek MT6762d (Helio P22) chipset and 3GB RAM underneath it, the screen should be mostly LCD, rather than OLED. Lastly, this handset will run Android 10 out of the box, which is a bummer for a device releasing in 2021.
That said, the exact launch date of HTC Wildfire E3 is a mystery but since the phone has been already listed on Google Play Console, it should go official anytime soon.
