HTC Announces One E9+ with a 5.5-inch 2K Display in India

As soon as the HTC launch event kicked off, the Taiwanese firm pulled out a whole lot of surprises. The first one was the introduction of the One M9+ instead of the One M9, followed by the release of two new handsets, the One E9+ and Desire 326G. The One M9+ is priced at Rs. 52,500 and will be up for grabs on May 3, while the rest will be available mid-May onwards.

Unlike One M9+, the One E9+ features a plastic body. It sports a 5.5-inch Quad HD (1440x2560p) display, with a 64-bit 2GHz octa-core MediaTek helio X10 chipset powering the device. 3GB RAM and 16GB internal storage space are just enough for the dual-SIM smartphone. The phone holds a MicroSDXC card support that offers to expand the memory by 2TB. The device runs on Android 5.0 Lollipop with HTC Sense 7 skin atop.

Coming on to camera specifications, HTC One E9+ holds a 20MP rear camera which offers 4K video recording. The upfront has HTC’s UltraPixel shooter that clicks fair quality pictures. The front also houses the company’s trademark BoomSound with Dolby Audio. The phone gets its juice from the 2800mAh embraced at its back.

Connectivity options include NFC, Bluetooth 4.1, Wi-Fi, DLNA, Micro-USB port and an audio jack. The phone will come in three shades – Meteor Grey, Gold Sopia and Rose Gold. Meanwhile, HTC hasn’t revealed the pricing details of the handset, but it is likely to unfold before the official roll out.
