Rumoured specifications of the HTC One Max include a 5.9-inch Super LCD full-HD (1080×1920) display, 1.7GHz quad-core Qualcomm processor, Ultra Pixel camera, Fingerprint Scanner and would run Android 4.3 Jelly Bean. According to recent claims, the Taiwanese giant would adopt the old Qualcomm processor for the production of company’s first phablet. The reason for going with an old chipset is the insufficient supply of Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processors as the same chipset has been used by a number of handset makers. With the HTC One having been comfortably established in the market for a good while now, the launch of HTC’s first phablet is expected to strengthen the portfolio of the Taiwanese handset maker.
With the launch of the HTC One Max, the company will also join the phablet race with Samsung and Sony which already offer the Galaxy Mega 6.3 featuring a 6.3-inch display and Xperia Z Ultra sporting a 6.4-inch display, respectively.
