It is only hours before HTC unveils its newest flagship, the HTC 10, but speculations about the handset continue to come out. According to rumors, HTC is surprising fans with a twist – reportedly, the HTC 10 is coming in at least two versions.
According to GSM Arena, eagle-eyed observers have found out that a listing online reportedly mentions an "HTC 10 Lifestyle." The listing is for the camera specs of the device.
It is unclear, however, if the device in question will be the Snapdragon 652-powered one that was previously rumored, or another device entirely. Earlier rumors pointed out that aside from a Snapdragon 820 variant, HTC will be releasing a version with modest specs for the mid-range phone market.
This is separate from another device speculated to expand the HTC 10 lineup. Another report from the industry follower hyped about a possible HTC 10 Mini to be launched by September. However, instead of the 10 Mini being a smaller and less powerful version of the base model, HTC will feature a next-gen Snapdragon 823 processor in it, making it at least as powerful as the regular HTC 10 flagship. The HTC 10 Mini may be the company's answer to a slate of smaller iterations rumored to come out this year, which was started by the iPhone SE.
Should these rumors be proven true, fans may be waiting for at least three iterations under the HTC 10 lineup.
Although it is still hours before the official launch of the new flagship, speculations place the HTC 10 to be one of the better flagships for this year. According to speculations, the new iteration's Snapdragon 820 chipset will be paired with at least 4GB of RAM. In addition, HTC is said to finally return to an UltraPixel setup for its camera, with a 12MP main shooter on the back and an OIS-enabled camera on the front.
