HTC U12 full specs list and price may have just leaked: 6-inch display, Snapdragon 845, more (Updated)
Last time we heard about HTC's next flagship smartphone, the U12 was quietly displayed during a 5G event held by a Taiwanese carrier on its home turf. Aside from the fact that it may be an indication that the U12 will be equipped with a Qualcomm X20 LTE modem that supports download speeds of up to 1.2 Gbps, few other details about the phone were made available at that date.

Well, it appears that a Russian journalist managed to find out more about the HTC U12 and was willing to share the information with the whole world. His findings somewhat come in line with what we've been able to learn, so there specs list could be 100% accurate.

As expected, the HTC U12 will boast a larger 6-inch display with Quad HD resolution and 18:9 aspect ratio. The phone won't come with an AMOLED screen, but the standard Super LCD display that HTC usually puts inside its flagships.

On the inside, the U12 will pack a Snapdragon 845 processor, 6GB RAM and 128GB expandable storage. The smartphone will come with a dual-camera setup on the back (12MP+16MP), and a secondary 8-megapixel selfie camera. 

HTC's flagship will feature IP68 certification, a decent 3,420 mAh battery, as well as 5G and dual-SIM support. When it comes to software, HTC U12 is expected to ship with Android 8.0 Oreo on board, along with Sense 10, HTC Face Unlock and Edge Sense 2.0.

The smartphone's back and front sides will be coated in glass, while the frames will be made of metal. As far as pricing goes, HTC U12 is rumored to hit the shelves in April for around $880, but prices may vary by region.
