HTC Ocean Note to feature outstanding camera, no 3.5mm jack and Type-C USB port?
Just the other day, we told you that HTC would be launching a trio of new phones within the next three months. The code names for these models is allegedly the Ocean Master, Ocean Note, and Ocean Smart. The Ocean Note would probably have the largest screen of the trio. Today, some information about the model surfaced. The Ocean Note will supposedly be available in Black, White, and Blue, featuring Dual SIM capability. The first SIM supports 4G while the second supports 3G. The 3.5mm earphone jack will be MIA, continuing the new trend seen on the Motorola Moto Z handsets, the Apple iPhone 7 and the Apple iPhone 7 Plus.
The Ocean Note could also be unveiledon January 12th, along with some other HTC models. This morning, Taiwan's Eprice gave us a juicy bit of gossip by stating that the Ocean Note will have an amazing rear snapper with the highest DxOMark score of any smartphone camera. Currently, that is an achievement owned by the Google Pixel.
Hopefully, we will soon find out more about what to expect from HTC's new models. Besides the flagship HTC 11, which should be highly spec'd, the mid range HTC One X10 is also expected soon. The latter, which could feature a 5.5-inch screen with a 1080 x 1920 resolution, might have the MediaTek Helio P10 chipset under the hood. The latter would be equipped with a true octa-core 2GHz CPU (Cortex-A53 cores), and the Mali-T860 GPU clocked at 700MHz. 3GB of RAM is said to be inside, along with a 13MP rear-facing camera sporting OIS.
HTC's shipping numbers are still in the doldrums, so the big question is whether any of the new models can shake things up for the manufacturer.
