It’s been a good 8 months since HTC took the curtains off its HTC One (M8) flagship smartphone, so it’s only natural that we start seeing more and more rumours and leaks about the next generation flagship – the HTC One (M9). The latest report claims to have gotten details to the specs of the One M9, and also mentions an extra device called the One M9 Prime.
According to the leak, the HTC One for 2015 will sport a 5.5” 2K display with a resolution of 2560 x 1440. It will be powered by one of the best processors available in the market, the Snapdragon 805, paired with 3GB of RAM. Other specs include 16MP rear camera with OIS, an aluminium silicon-carbide material for the body, and the Taiwanese company might be partnering with Bose for the audio.
Will it look better than the current HTC One (M8)?
Details about the M9 Prime are scarce at the moment, but it is believed that it should be an update to the HTC One Max, which means a bigger screen and hopefully, the same great (or even greater) hardware. Both devices are expected to be announced in MWC 2015, which will be happening in early March next year.
Who’s looking forward to the HTC One (M9)? After seeing how good the Butterfly 2 is, I am.

“5.5” 2K display with a resolution of 260 x 1440” ?
should be 2560 X 1440
Thank you for informing and sorry for the typo!
Getting bigger and bigger 😀
With front facing speakers and HTC’s typically large bezels, a 5.5″ screen will already result in a large phone. I don’t see the point of making a phone even larger than that.
It is a concern if htc stick with their previous htc ones’ front speakers design.. But if they use the speaker design like the one in htc desire eye which is almost unnoticeable then it’s not gonna be a problem. Hopefully.
The only thing I’m disappointed in after seeing these specs is the snapdragon 805. Yes, by march it’ll still be a perfectly capable processor, but they should have chosen the snapdragon 810 chip instead
