HTC One Max in a face-to-face with the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 in new snaps

New snaps of the HTC One Max havebeen spotted on the web, hailing, unsurprisingly, from theresourceful China. Seeing as the phablet is slated for a launchsometime in Q4 2013, it's not at all surprising to see that the newsnaps are pitting the One Max against what will most probably be thedevice to beat – the Samsung Galaxy Note 3. Unfortunately for HTC,the One Max is starting off with a loss in one particular categorywhen compared to the Note 3 – dimensions. Granted, those aren't a first priority for a phablet, given their sheer size, but we'renevertheless obliged to point out that stylish looks of the One Max have theirprice, and in this case you can clearly see that Samsung has made a much better use of what's available, keeping the bulk to a minimum... anyway.

One thing is for sure when it comesto HTC's first shot at the growing phablet market – the companyshouldn't count on it being a surprise. Whatsoever. Details of the6-inch monster phablet have been happily leaking all over theinternet for the past month or so, with some of them proving to bepretty specific and on target. It is because of such snippets of information thatwe know that the One Max, for example, will come with a dedicatedfingerprint scanner, possibly one of the first devices to do so afterthe iPhone 5s. We also know that the device will keep the HTC One'sdesign cues pretty much entirely. Thelist truly goes on, and on.
