While HTC did unveil the Desire 826 at CES this year, they didn‘t really have a massive presence at the trade show. Last year HTC announced the HTC One M8 at a standalone event, and not at MWC as they had before, but this year might be different.
Reports point to a possible HTC flagship launch at MWC 2015, called project “œHima“, which is rumoured to be either the HTC One M9 or the HTC One M8 Max ““ the massive phablet successor to the previous One Max.
HTC MWC 2015 press invites for a special March 1 (4pm CET) event have been sent out, and with emphasis on “œutopia in progress“.
The HTC One (M9), if that’s what they decide to call it, will reportedly make the jump to a 5″ QHD screen, a Snapdragon 810 chipset, a 20.7MP camera on the front with maybe an UltraPixel selfie camera and a burly 3,500mAh battery to power it all.
Of course, HTC could release another mid-ranger and call it a day, the utopia message is as ambiguous as it gets. Still, the MWC is a couple of months away so there’s plenty of time for teasers and leaks to stoke the fire.
