Claimed HTC One M9 front panel leaks, alludes to a fine screen-to-body ratio

Claimed front panel of the supposed One (M9) has popped up, and if this leak holds water, it means that the upcoming flagship from HTC will have a pretty good screen-to-phone-size ratio. Of course, here we have to tack on the BoomSound stereo speakers top and bottom, but legend has it HTC is working on slimming those down even further, so we might end up with both a compact and elegant handset for the screen size.

Interestingly, the source claims that this is a 5.2" panel, as per the original rumor, instead of the 5.5" diagonal we've been hearing lately, but their musings are backed only by a comparative picture where the One (M9) display is put next to the 5-incher of the One (M8), so nothing is set in stone just yet.

In any case, the panel seems with pretty thin bezels all around, plus the One (M9) is said to come with a Quad HD resolution and a Snapdragon 805 chipset, plus the most welcome rumor of all - that the flagship will finally ditch the UltraPixel camera, and sport a high-res shooter.
