HTC is rumoured to be readying two different handsets, the HTC One M9 and the One M9 Plus, for a release in a couple of weeks at MWC 2015, but it looks like that’s not all to come from the company soon.
A new rumour has suggested the company is almost ready to unveil the One M8i, a mid-range version of last year’s flagship HTC One M8.
According to a new leak from upleaks, the One M8i will be the same in appearance and weight boasting the same 5-inch 1080p display but there will be some key differences under the hood.
There’s said to be a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 processor alongside 2GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage and a microSD slot.

The camera on the back is a Duo set up with a 13MP and 2MP sensor whilst the front facing snapper will be a 5MP sensor. The iconic BoomSound speakers will be making a return, Android 5.0 with Sense 7.0 will be there as standard and it’ll all be powered by a 3,000mAh battery.
All in all it’s not the phone we voted the best of 2014, but it really is still quite strong considering it’ll probably come in at a lower price. Colour options will include grey, gold or silver and it’ll be available in certain Asian countries as well as Europe.ion of One (M8)
