HTC U12+ recently appeared in case renders with no
notch and four cameras - two on the front, two more on the back. Latest juicy
info is coming from China, revealing all the phone’s specifications thanks to a
leaked sheet.
HTC is going all in with the hardware, equipping the
U12+ with Snapdragon 845, 8 GB RAM and 128 GB storage. The phone will also have
a microSD slot for cards up to 2 TB. The display will be 5.5” with a tall
display and Quad HD+ resolution of 2960 x 1440 pixels and 18.5:9 aspect.
Selfies can be snapped with two 8 MP sensors, and
the setup will also support OIS and HDR Boost. The primary camera is listed as
12 MP with f/1.5 lens with the UltraPixel 4 technology and UltraSpeed AF. OIS
is also available on the back snappers. The second sensor is rumored to have 16
MP resolution.
The phone will bring Edge Sense 2 - the new version
of the squeeze UI. There is also HTC Usonic tech that adapts the sound your
liking. The IP68 compatibility means the phone will be water- and dustproof.
Let’s hope this time you’ll be able to take pictures while jumping from a pool
tower, unlike the U11.
The phone will have Qualcomm’s Quick Charge 4+
technology that promises up to 15% faster and up to 30% more efficient
charging. Right now no major players support it so HTC is taking a step ahead
of competitors. There is also Qi wireless charging, NFC and Wi-Fi 802.11
a/b/g/n/ac.
The HTC U12+ is expected to debut in April, although
HTC is yet to set a date.
