HTC One M9 specs: HTC One M8 sucessor to come in two sizes?

Brand new leaks of the HTC One M9 are making the rounds, giving fans an idea of what the upcoming handset will bring to the table. Well-known industry insider @evleaks has shared product shots of the future HTC handset and media outlets believe that the photos, at last, are the real deal. It is a bit difficult to determine what's authentic and what's phony when it comes to leaks, but if the images are more genuine than fake, then it means that the HTC One M9 is closer than ever before. 

The leaks show two variants of the HTC One M9, which are different in terms of size. Both smartphones come in their expected all-glass panel and a revamped edge-mounted front speakers at the base. A large camera can also be seen and Engadget thinks that it may be an ultrapixel shooter while Christian Post broached that it may be one that is also seen in the Desire Eye's 13-megapixel snapper. Also, the phones look rather classy with bezels made ultra thin. 

The obvious difference of the models is the home button. The larger HTC One M9 has its home button embedded at the foot of its large screen. According to Christian Post, the bigger device is also set to feature a fingerprint scanner. The site, however, notes that the leaks are a bit different compared to previous leaks bearing the HTC One M9 but quickly reiterated rumors suggesting that the company itself is planting decoys to throw other leaksters off from actually sharing the real one. 

Nevertheless, big trust is upon @evleaks, who has hit the mark about the HTC One M7 and One M8. This makes it easy to think that the tipster has laid out the details the tech world has been rummaging for.

GSM Arena, on the other hand, has reported HTC's plans to include DotView color variants of the HTC One M9. This time, it is @upleaks responsible for the information. With blue, orange, dark red and black already available, the leakster claims that a turquoise and a yellow version will come out.

The upcoming HTC One M9, along with its variants, is believed to be unveiled during the Mobile World Congress in March. HTC already sent out invitations for the event, which teases "Utopia in progress."
