HTC One M9+ announced in Europe, it's a larger One M9 with a Quad HD display and fingerprint scanner
As the name suggests, the HTC One M9+ is the 'plus' version of the standard One M9 that we first saw at MWC2015. Aesthetically, the devices are near identical, with the only difference being the physical, touch-type fingerprint scanner on the bottom bezel, parting the lower BoomSound speaker. Beyond that, the M9+ has all the markings of classic One line design, including the signature all-aluminum body and ergonomically rounded back plate. There are a few more changes available with the M9+ that warrant the plus suffix, and one that may come across as the exact opposite, but perhaps isn't.
Let's start with the positives. The One M9+ has a slightly larger, 5.2-inch display, with the panel in question boasting a Quad HD (1440 x 2560) resolution, giving it a density of 565 pixels per inch. On the other hand, Qualcomm's problematic Snapdragon 810 has been swapped with a chip from MediaTek — the 64-bit, 2.2GHz Helio X10 with eight cores. This may sound like a downgrade, but given the widespread issues with the 810 (it gets really, really hot), and the fact that the Helio X10 is a very recent solution built from the ground up with ultra-high resolutions in mind, we reserve an official opinion for later.
The rest of the specs on the One M9+ are taken right off the standard M9's list. We've got 3 gigs of RAM, a 20-megapixel main camera from Toshiba, with f/2.2 lens and dual LED flash, a 4-megapixel UltraPixel selfie snapper, and a 2,840 mAh battery.
The One M9+ will be made available in select European markets in gunmental grey, gold on gold, and silver on gold. Unfortunately, that's all we know for now — HTC is keeping mum on specifics like pricing, among others.
