HTC sends out invitations for an event in China, most likely to introduce the HTC One E9
HTC has sent out invitations in China for an event most likely involving the
HTC One E9. The dates listed on the invites show that whatever HTC is inviting the media to, it will run from March 11th through March 17th. There is talk about the a Chinese version of Sense being revealed, or the unveiling of the
HTC One M9 Plus.
The HTC One E9 is a phablet with a 5.5-inch screen carrying a resolution of 1440 x 2560. It is powered by a 64-bit octa-core MediaTek MT-6795 CPU. A PowerVR G6200 GPU crunches the graphics. 3GB of RAM is on board along with 32GB of native storage. A 20MP camera graces the back of the handset while a 4MP Ultrapixel camera adorns the front of the unit. The 3000mAh battery keeps the lights on and Android 5.0 is pre-installed. HTC's Sense 7.0 runs on top of Android.
Speculation has the HTC One E9 being sold in China for $320, which would be a pretty reasonable price for such a well-spec'd phone. The period covered by the invitation starts tomorrow, so we should soon be hearing more about the fun and festivities that HTC has planned in China. The HTC One E9 isn't expected to be sold outside China.
Thanks for the tip!
