We told you a couple of days ago that HTC sent out invitations
for a press event that will be held March 1st in Barcelona. The
Taiwanese phone maker is expected to introduce their next-gen flagship
smartphone, the HTC One M9 (aka Hima), during the Barcelona-based event. According
to a report coming from Bloomberg, HTC will
also introduce a smartwatch during the same event.
The reputed
publication also revealed that the yet-unannounced HTC smartwatch will come
with Under Armor integration, which might be the reason behind the recently
signed partnership between the Taiwanese company and the fitness service. For
the time being there are no additional details about HTC’s smartwatch, but
we are sure we will get to hear more about the device as we get closer to
Mobile World Congress tech fair.
The same
report also confirms what we have already known: that the HTC One M9 release
date has been set for March 1st, also adding that the new terminal will get an
upgrade in terms of camera. Bloomberg says, quoting a source that asked “not to
be identified because the details aren’t public,” that the One M8 successor
will boast a 20 MP primary shooter and an HTC UltraPixel camera in the front
for your Selfie needs.
If the rumors
are to be believed, HTC One M9 would arrive with an appealing hardware
platform. The handset is expected to come with a 64-bit Snapdragon
810 chipset with Adreno 430 GPU, 3 GB of RAM, 5-inch display with 1080 x
1920 resolutions, and a 2,840 mAh battery. It looks like the device will run
Android 5.0 Lollipop with Sense 7.0 out of the box.
Even though
Bloomberg is a trustworthy source when it comes to reports of unreleased
devices, we are advising you to take the information with a pinch of salt.
After all nothing is official until HTC says so.
