HTC One E9+ specifications
Standout features in the HTC One E9+ include a 5.5in Quad-HD display with 534ppi density, and great sound with Dolby Audio and HTC BoomSound speakers.
Inside the HTC One E9+ is a 64-bit MediaTek MT6795M octa-core chip with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of storage. There's a 2800mAh battery to keep it all going, and the E9+ still weighs only 150g.
Connectivity-wise there's dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.1and NFC. The E9+ is also a 4G phone, with support for FDD-LTE and TD-LTE bands. The fact it is also a dual-SIM phone suggests to us that it won't be officially released in the UK.
According to the Chinese site the HTC One E9+ matches the One M9 with a 20Mp rear camera and HTC's UltraPixel camera at the front, but this has been reported to be an error, and the E9+ will actually feature a 13Mp rear camera.
The HTC One E9+ will run Android 5.0 Lollipop with HTC Sense 7.0 out of the box. It will be available in meteor grey, gold sepia and rose gold two-tone colour options.
