HTC just posted a teaser on its local Twitter account in China about an upcoming "handsome" phone that will be unveiled on September 6th, it seems. Given that CEO Cher Wang assured investors back in the beginning of the summer that we would all speak again in October, when the company will be releasing a "hero" device, that could be the one she was talking about.
The only upcoming flagship from HTC that we are still waiting on to appear is the rumored One A9 "Aero" handset, so on Sunday we might very well hear something more official about it. As a reminder, besides a deca-core Helio X20 processor, the HTC One A9 could feature a Quad HD or 1080p display, 4 GB of RAM, and an enhanced rear camera with support for RAW photography.
The handset might appear on AT&T, and will allegedly cost around $500 - $600, which puts it in the premium segment, so we can't wait to see the actual specs and design in a few days.
