Photo collage of the HTC One E9+ reveals glossy looking plastic device with 5.5-inch QHD screen

Earlier this month, we showed you some images of the unannounced HTC One E9pt (A55). The specs made sense only if the p in "pt" stood for Plus. That appears to be the case as a new photo collage of the device calls it the HTC One E9+. Made with a glossy plastic body, the phone doesn't have the curve of the HTC One M9 in back which means that it is more svelte than HTC's new flagship model. The 5.5-inch screen is carrying a 1440 x 2560 resolution and is powered by a 64-bit octa-core 2.2GHz MediaTek MT-6795 CPU.

The One E9+ will have 3GB of RAM inside, with 32GB of native storage. There will be a 20MP camera on back. The front-facing camera will either be a 13MP shooter, or it will copy the One M9 by using the 4MP Ultrapixel camera that once upon a time was fixed on the rear of the HTC One (M7) and HTC One (M8). A fingerprint scanner will be on board, and a 2800mAh battery will be in charge of keeping the lights on. Android 5.0 with Sense 7.0 is pre-installed.

The HTC One E9+  is expected to be priced for the equivalent of $480 USD and speculation has the unit getting launched in China at the end of this month.
