HTC One M9 Plus has been the talk of the town in the past few weeks. The company has kept an official event on April 8, where it will unveil this phablet. However, even when the launch is just a week away, leaks about the M9 Plus still continue to come.

The latest leak reveals the full promotional images of the HTC One M9 Plus phablet. You can clearly see the writings in Chinese which explain the intricate details of the upcoming device. The company particularly highlights the design and workman ship of its new device. For example, one of the picture says “the quality of the metal is as good as silk”, while another says “the phone reveals elegant shine”. So, it looks like the company has put in a lot of efforts to design the new product.

Another important fact revealed by these images is the physical home button. Yes, like we saw in earlier renders, these images too confirm that the HTC One M9 Plus will have a physical home button in between its boom sound speakers. What’s more it is rumored that the button could feature a fingerprint sensor.

According to earlier rumors, the HTC One M9 Plus will feature Snapdragon 810 processor in one version and MT6795octa-core processor in another. There will be 3GB RAM onboard with 32GB of expandable internal storage. The 5.2-inch display up front will feature a 2K display. At the back, there will be a 20.7MP camera while at the front, it will have the same 4MP Ultrapixel sensor as the HTC One M9. Finally, the battery is said to be of 2840 mAh.

Unfortunately, we still don’t know the pricing of the device, but expect it to be much higher than the flagship HTC One M9. Since, the launch date is just a few days away, we will have to patiently wait for official information from the company.

Meanwhile, you can check out the full promo images from the gallery down below.

We have been hearing about HTC One M9 Plus since the start of the year, however, the company has not confirmed the existence of the device officially. In fact, HTC has already announced its flagship smartphone for the year, the HTC One M9 with much fanfare at MWC 2015 on March 1st. Unfortunately, we didn’t see the M9 Plus at the event, which means the company will probably keep a separate event for its launch later this year.

Today, new images of the HTC One M9 Plus were leaked online, once again confirming the existence of fingerprint sensor as well as a large rear dual camera unit.

On first glance, the M9 Plus and M9 looks a lot similar in design. However, there are some areas which clearly differentiates this upcoming smartphone. First of all, you have that large home button up front. The HTC One M9 had onscreen keys and hence, the area was just occupied by the speakers on the device. However, this leak shows off the home button which will most likely harbor the fingerprint sensor. The button lies slightly below the overall body, which we hope will not affect the efficiency of he fingerprint identification process.

Coming to the back, you can see the same brushed metal finish as the M9. However, instead of a traditional single camera unit, the M9 Plus features a dual camera unit like its previous generations. The main camera sensor looks larger than anything we have seen before on an HTC device, and will most probably be of 20.7MP resolution. You can also clearly see the ‘China Mobile 4G’ logo at the back.

As for the tech specs, the new HTC One M9 Plus is said to come with 5.2-inch 2K resolution display. On the other hand, the M9 has a 1080p full HD screen. Also, instead of Snapdragon 810, the phone is said to feature Mediatek’s MT6795T processor with PowerVR G6200 GPU. There will be 3GB RAM onboard along with 32GB of internal storage. No information about the existence of a MicroSD slot is available.

The rear camera unit will be of 20.7MP while the front shooter will be the same 4MP Ultrapixel unit as its predecessor. Finally, a 2840 mAh battery is said to power the device. Like mentioned at the start of the article, HTC has been quite about this smartphone till now. But rumors say that we could see an official release as early as April this year. Pricing will be a sensitive point, but expect it to be around 5000 yuan ($800).

So, what do you think about the HTC One M9 Plus?

The post HTC One M9 Plus leaked once again with 20.7MP dual camera unit and fingerprint sensor appeared first on Gizmochina.

About a week back, we had reported that Samsung Galaxy S6 cases had made it to the Chinese retailer OPPOMART. Now, it looks like HTC One M9 cases too have been listed on the site just a day before the official launch.

There are around 9 different cases for the M9 listed online. Of course, since the device has not been officially announced all of those are still out of stock. But after tomorrow’s announcement, we expect more retailers to stock up such cases for the flagship device.

There are a number of cases as well as a tempered glass screen protector on the website. The cases range from simple, transparent TPU ones to rugged protective cases. There’s even a leather flip case listed.

Interestingly, we have not yet found any cases for its larger variant, the HTC One M9 Plus which is expected to be 5.5-inches. However, we may see cases for the device soon as the release date nears.

There were a few pictures of the HTC One M9 on OPPOMART and it looks a lot like the recently leaked ones. As for the tech specs, the phone is said to come with the latest Snapdragon 810 processor with 3GB RAM and 32GB / 64GB / 128GB storage options. The rear camera will be replaced by a traditional 20MP one and the 4MP ultrapixel cam will most likely end up as the front shooter for the device. There will be a 5-inch display up front with a resolution of 1920 x 1080p. Finally, the phone is expected to run on Android 5.0 KitKat with Sense 7 UI and will probably come with a 2840 mAh battery.

Of course, these are the rumored specs of the device but we don’t have to wait too long for official news. HTC has scheduled an event for tomorrow morning at MWC, Barcelona where it will announce the M9 and the M9 Plus. Luckily, the company will stream the entire event online, so check out their YouTube link from here for watching it live.

Just recently we saw some pictures claiming to be the upcoming HTC One (M9) flagship and today, we have another set of alleged images of the new HTC One M9 Plus. Yes, the source claims that the device will be called as the HTC One M9 Plus and will have a slightly different design as well as a few extra features than the regular HTC One M9 flagship. So, this could mean that HTC may announce two different variants of its flagship this year.

For some reason, the only speakers on the phone go right on top of the display alongside the front camera and the sensors. We don’t see a second speaker down below. Instead, there is a physical home button, which also acts as a fingerprint scanner. Ther front camera sensor looks a bigger than other competitors, which may hint at a 13MP camera sensor like the HTC Desire Eye.

Coming to the back, the overall design remains the same and the HTC’s dual cameras also make a comeback. There is the HTC logo printed in the middle. Other than that, the back looks clean.

As for the leaked specifications, the HTC One M9 Plus is said to come with a 5.5-inch 2K display with the latest Snapdragon 810 under the hood. It will have 3GB RAM and will support 4G LTE networks. Detailed camera and connectivity specs have not yet been leaked. But some say, the traditional HTC One M9 will have a 20.7MP camera, which may also end up on this model.

Anyways, HTC has an event scheduled for March 1st at MWC 2015 where we will probably see a lot more of the company’s flagship devices.

Stay tuned for more details.
