Another leak has brought the tech world in commotion as famous Twitter tipster @upleaks just revealed yesterday that HTC's Butterfly 3 (B3) will come out with widescreen 5.2-inch 1440X2560 QHD display. Although it remains unannounced yet, tech experts fear of its limited availability in global market. With a stronger and more competitive showdown, Butterfly 3 is expected to hit stores in August.
Only a few smartphones available in the market have the same killer specs, including Motorola Moto Maxx, Meizu MX4 Pro, and Samsung Galaxy S5 LTE-A. Designed in Japan, HTC Butterfly smartphone series used to be exclusively distributed in Asia. The Taiwanese brand has not announced yet if it's showing up on March 1 for the tech trade show Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2015 in Barcelona, Spain.
HTC One M9 was first rumored to have 5.5-inch 1080X1920 QHD resolution, but no report has surfaced until now confirming it. Meanwhile, One (M8) is HTC's flagship in terms of specs because of its overall package which includes a conventional 13MP camera and a smart exterior although it does not have the UltraPizel unit and IP57 certification which Butterfly 2 has.
HTC Butterfly 2 is out in the market for six months now that sports a water-resistant build, which a report claims the successor model will also have the same kind of chassis. It is made of plastic construction. An HTC tablet is also speculated to be released in the second or third quarter of 2015. This tablet is based on Google's Nexus 9 which came out in November last year with 8.9-inch display.
The HTC Butterfly is powered by Snapdragon 801 chipset and 2GB of RAM. It is available in two internal storage variants of 16GB and 32GB. The external memory slot supports up to 128 GB of microSD. It features dual 13MP camera on its rear and 5MP camera on the front. It supports LTE connectivity and is equipped with a massive 2700 mAh capacity battery.
