The Taiwanese manufacturer is preparing a new smartphone for Asian markets. Variant of the HTC One M9 + plastic, it should be formalized in July.

 Having formalized its flagship, the One M9, HTC had introduced us a few weeks later his XL variant, named One M9 +. To this were added the One E9 and E9 +, two variants of the One M9 and M9 +, equipped with plastic shells and intended for Asian markets. Well here today comes a new model, the HTC One ME9, which is in fact the actual plastic variant of the One M9 +.

 Indeed, the HTC One E9 + is greater than the One M9 + (5.5 inches vs. 5.2 inches), besides being devoid of fingerprint sensor. The HTC One ME9 that we had seen last week on TENAA, meanwhile has the same size and same specifications as the One M9 +. Only the plastic shell and the back sensor (Duo Camera is absent on the One ME9) used to differentiate the flagship XL.

 Spotted by Upleaks this HTC One ME9 unveils its main features, which are almost similar to the One M9 +. Thus, according to the serial leaker, the future of Taiwanese smartphone should have a screen of 5.2 inches WQHD (2560 x 1440 pixels) and should be run by a octa-core 64-bit MediaTek MT6795 processor clocked at 2.2 Ghz, accompanied by 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal memory. Photo hand, we should find there two sensors: a Toshiba T4KA7 20 megapixels on the back, another 4 megapixel (UltraPixel) facade.

 Also note the presence of Boomsound technology, a fingerprint reader and Bluetooth 4.1 connectivity. Everything should run Android 5.0 Lollipop accompanied by the overlay HTC Sense 7.0.

 Marketed in three colors (Classic Pink, Gold Sepia and Meteor Grey) at a price of around 500 euros, THC One ME9 should in all likelihood be reserved for Asian markets. Its release is scheduled for July.

HTC has probably made many envious with the One M9 + and One E9 +. The first was formalized very recently and is presented as a premium version of the M9 One with a QHD screen slightly larger, a fingerprint reader and Duo Camera 20 megapixel rear. The second formalized late March, moves away a little more with a screen, also QHD, 5.5 “and a less quality chassis for a more attractive price. Two pretty proposals that seemed unfortunately reserved for China. From least until today.

 HTC has just announced the arrival of the last members of the One range in a new market. No need to pull out the credit card. You can leave it where it is since it is not Europe. No. Unfortunately, they will immediately Asia since the market in question is India. Can only hope that this is only a first step towards a comprehensive availability but we do have some hope, a spokesman recently confirmed that it would be Asian exclusives.

 Incidentally, the One M9 + and One E9 + will fail only because they will be accompanied by a much more modest Desire 326G. On the menu: HD screen 4.5 “quad-core chipset, 1GB of RAM, 8GB of internal memory (+ micro SD), 8 and 2 megapixel camera and 2000mAh battery The smartphone is also dual SIM. A fairly standard midrange so.

 The three smartphones will be available next month in India. Only the price of One M9 + has been clarified. There will be 52,500 rupees, or about € 800.

HTC just made a new announcement related to its One M9. It covers a service called UH OH Protection through which buyers can benefit from a free replacement in case of breakage within 12 months of purchase.

 Like its predecessors, the One M9 is not waterproof. A feature increasingly popular with buyers. It must be said as water and smartphones do not really go together and that it is increasingly difficult to switch from one or the other. The smartphone now comes to the beach or the pool. He frequently attends drunken Saturday night from the corner of the table. It follows us even to the bathroom. That said, there are many other mortal dangers to which a smartphone, even waterproof, is exposed to daily. While HTC has decided to do his best to One M9.

 Free replacement within 12 months of purchase

 And no. He has not forgotten awkward. On the occasion of an event held today in the United States, the Taiwanese manufacturer has just introduced UH OH Protection. This is actually a warranty entitlement, for every purchase of a One M9, a free replacement smartphone for damage. This obviously includes those caused by water but by a simple fall: broken screen, scratches, cracks … The only limit is time.

 The warranty only covers “only” the first 12 months of use. Note that it also rewards users more careful since if at the end of this period, no replacement has been claimed, HTC is committed to a purchase of a bond worth $ 100 for the purchase a new One.

 HTC UH OH is a very interesting initiative, which benefits both users clumsy careful. Now remains to be seen whether it will be limited to the United States. It is presented only for the time the US manufacturer portal, where we can also see that the One (M8) is also eligible.

Like last year, HTC would have provided a cheaper variant of its flagship. It logically takes the name of One E9 and has been certified in China. The launch would no longer far away.

 Well before the announcement of the One M9 at MWC, rumors already evoked the existence of several variants. He even told that one or more would be revealed to the side of the flagship. Finally, this was not the case but we obviously did not have to wait much longer to see the first one. This would be the One E9. Replacing the One E8, cheaper alternative to One (M8) in China, has been certified by TENAA.

 Different on the outside…

 As always, the Chinese certification body has been generous by putting his updated database. Measurements, components photos. Everything is there and it seems that the One E9 slightly more different from the One M9 than was the One (E8) of One (M8). As for the duo in 2014, the difference lies in the design with built entirely of plastic. Also note that the camera takes a round and not square. But this time there have also been some major changes under the hood.

 … But also inside!

 The display has been extended and refined. TENAA indeed confirms the diagonal of 5.5 “and QHD resolution (against 5″ Full HD on the flagship). As a result, the smartphone would obviously be greater: 156.5 x 76.5 x 7.54 mm. Notice that two good disappeared millimeters in thickness. This is because the battery has she not won capacity. She even lost 40 mAh to reach 2800 mAh.

 The side of the chipset Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 was replaced by the MediaTek MT6795, which is perhaps just as well given the overheating problems. The rest would still have been preserved: 3GB of RAM, 32GB of internal memory, 20 megapixel camera and webcam UltraPixel. The smartphone comes would obviously with Android Lollipop dressed Sense 7.0.

 The passage in TENAA obviously confirms that the One E9 is expected soon to be launched in China. The price should be lower than the One M9. Unfortunately, the chances of him coming home are slim. The One E8 was booked in Asia.

New door flagship of HTC, the One M9 should be entitled to the usual batch of declination. One of them would take the name of One E9 and distinguished by an entirely of plastic frame, as shown by new photos on canvas.

 Many smartphones were expected alongside the HTC One M9 in Barcelona. The flagship was finally announced one but several variants are well prepared and if they have not unveiled last week, they now seem at ease in front of the goals. After the One M9 Plus is the One E9 (former A55 or Ace Plus) who just asked at a very private photo shoot. The results were published on Weibo.

 We find very near One M9 smartphone front. The speakers BoomSound have obviously been kept and borders around the screen are pretty slim. At the rear, however, is another story. Not brushed metal on the frame. Logic, since it should be plastic like the One (E8) last year. The camera takes, meanwhile, the same round as the One M9 Plus, or at least what we think is the One M9 Plus.

 However, the largest difference with the plastic frame should be the size. The One E9 would be greater than the One M9 since rumors lend him a qHD screen of 5.5 inches. Selected Plans unfortunately not possible to actually realize the size of the smartphone.

 Remember, it is also expected with MT6795 chipset with octa-core CPU clocked at 2 GHz and GPU PowerVR G6200, 3GB of RAM, 32GB of internal memory, a 20-megapixel camera, an UltraPixel webcam or 13 megapixels and a 2840 mAh battery. All under Android 5.0 Lollipop embellished Sense in course 7.0.

 Asia in focus

 As One (E8), the One E9 should target the Asian markets with, main asset, its price. It has not yet been specified but we do know that the smartphone should be available in three colors: pink gold, brown and gold metallic gray.

When HTC introduced last year its current flagship the One M8, it came with a new feature that surprised everyone: some different speakers, who make use of BoomSound system. The terminal fitted to two stereo, which actually emitted a sound quality never seen until now none of the terminals of the Taiwanese speakers (one on each side of the screen). Since it was one of the most outstanding features of the One M8 was strange to think that HTC would forget in their next device.

Not only would not have forgotten, but it would improve it. The company has released a few hours ago a promotional video on his Twitter account with the message: “get your hands on bigger boom”, what comes to indicate that what is coming is even better. What you see in the video does not reveal too much, but leaves no doubt that the next device will come with enhanced speakers. From Phone Arena claim that HTC could have collaborated with Dolby Laboratories to integrate Dolby 5.1 audio technology in the new One M9. This means that the sound is more crisp, clear and enveloping, and can even locate accurately the sounds of the screen.

HTC is not the only company that cares for its terminals have the best sound. The Asian BoomSound system also has to compete with others, such as the S-Force Surround technology that equips the Sony Xperia Z3 and gives clear and loud sounds, whether you use headphones, as if we use the speakerphone external. South Korea’s LG has also laid hold of the Booster Amp technology G3 device, so that the power and quality are also guaranteed. The fact integrates better sound, coupled with the quality of the screen and ones, increasingly, worked sensors.

Will be on March 1 when we finally meet the new flagship of the company. Come in two different versions, one with slightly higher screen and dubbed One M9 Plus. It is expected that the standard M9 One ride a 5-inch display with full HD resolution (1,920 x 1,080 pixels). The One M9 Plus would rise to the 5.2 inches and have a higher resolution, the popular QHD (2,560 x 1,440 pixels). Meanwhile, it is believed that this superior variant of a different terminal integrate Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 ride quite possibly the standard version of your processor. Therefore, the One M9 Plus could integrate a SoC Mediatek MT679, which makes us think that perhaps this model is only available for sale in Asia. Moreover, we also expect a sensor of 20 megapixels for the rear and a 13 megapixel front, which will allow us to do selfies to superior quality. Android will be the ruler of the new flagship of HTC. Specifically, the One M9 and One M9 Plus come with the latest version of the platform, Android 5.0 Lollipop.

The famous next flagship of HTC, the HTC One M9 or HTC Hima, made an appearance on the Geekbench 3.0 benchmark. A few days after the publication of photos of leak flagship assumed a complete test of the smartphone has been made that confirms certain components.

 HTC Hima (One M9) is the supposed next flagship of the Taiwanese manufacturer, it should, according to rumors, integrated a Quad HD screen of 5.5 inches, a Snapdragon 810 processor supported by 3 GB of RAM, an optical sensor 20.7 megapixel camera, a battery of 2840 mAh, two possible versions and unibody design identically.

 While the smartphone is accurate visual pictures, we move on performance and specifications of it. Noted nonetheless that tried smartphone called HTC 0PJA10 series, it is most likely a prototype, not optimized version. The benchmark scores are to be taken lightly this time.

 The single-core test score is 1232 and a multi-core score of 3587, compared to those of an assumed Galaxy S6 established scores 1520 in single-core and multi-core 5478. So scores a little lower than the South Korean flagship HTC Hima facing potential. But as I said earlier, this benchmark also confirms certain components.

 We can see in detail Qualcomm ARM processor 8-core 1.55 GHz, which corresponds to a Snapdragon 810, coupled with 3GB of RAM, already seen elements in the AnTuTu benchmark of the smartphone. A smartphone full of mystery, both by name and by its design and even its release date, it is expected at MWC Barcelona for March 2, no confirmation from HTC so far.

After a first appearance on the canvas early in the week, then at a Chinese prop, HTC Hima (One M9) today unveils all angles, through a new series of photos. Images that confirm previous and the fact that the design of the Taiwanese flagship 2015 will be the same as the previous year, with the exception of the camera, bigger and now square, and d button food that goes on the side.

In the same way as those published earlier this week, these new pictures of the HTC Hima from a source close to the Taiwanese company, which also took the opportunity to confirm that the unit is well equipped with a processor octo core 64 Bit Snapdragon 810 supported by 3 GB of Ram.

The rest of the specifications include a Full HD 5-inch screen, a main photo sensor 20 megapixels, a front camera UltraPixel and a battery of 2840 mAh. High capacity which, once associated with full HD and improvements proposed by the Soc Qualcomm and Lollipop, should be the next top Taiwanese range a true champion in terms of autonomy.

In other words, the apparatus will offer little external changes, but great improvements in terms of hardware. Some may be disappointed to find the same design as last year; however, there is not much we can complain about the design of devices that range.
