HTC making a phablet addition to its One family

The HTC One Family 
HTC is reportedly working on a large display bearing smartphone that will supersede the Butterfly S smartphone. That device is dubbed as HTC One Max, a smartphone-tablet hybrid due for arrive sometime later this year. The HTC One Max is likely to feature design similar to that of the HTC One series. German site Mobile Geeks was tipped by a source to share information that HTC plans to launch and make it available in early September. HTC is the only handset maker yet to join the large screen phablet game after Sony Mobile. The HTC One Max is the said to be the phablet meant to trump all the large screen devices including the upcoming Galaxy Note III. HTC One Max is expected to feature 6-inch Super LCD 3 display with full 1080p HD resolution natively. Under the chassis, it will pack a quad-core 2.3 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 mobile processor. For running the Android 4.2 Jelly Bean update smoothly, the HTC handset might come packed with 2 GB RAM. HTC will offer the One Max in 32 GB and 64 GB on-board storage options that makes us doubt if there will be any memory card slot. HTC will pack the 3200 mAh battery just like the one Butterfly S smartphone. HTC One currently retailing for over Rs 40,000 in India while the HTC Butterfly nowadays costs about Rs 37,500 approximately. There is no way we can judge the exact price but we presume it might hit around Rs 45,000 markEarly September, of course, coincides with the IFA in Berlin, which means it’s going to be a fantastically busy time for the industry. We’re already expecting a number of other devices to launch in that same timeframe, and that could include what might be the One Max’s chief competition, theSamsung Galaxy Note III. Samsung’s been dominating the phablet space for years; even an excellent HTC phablet will have its work cut out for it.


In this non static world we have seen phone wars , smartphone wars , tablet war and now its turning up for phablet wars !
