Back in July we first heard of a new HTC 6435 device that was going to feature an impressive 1080p display and come with a quad-core processor that would be headed to Verizon.
Since then, we've seen what the device is supposed to look like and that the display size would be 5" and the processor would most likely be the new Snapdragon S4 Pro.
Now according to Football4PDA on Twitter, which is an HTC Developer, he states the HTC DLX will indeed feature a 5" 1080p Full HD display, 1.5 GHz quad-core Snapdragon S4 Pro processor, 1.5 GB RAM, 16 GB of internal memory, 12MP rear camera, 2MP front camera, come with a 2500 mAh non-removable battery, and will be running Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean.
With those impressive specs, you'd imagine it would do well with benchmark testing. A quick search on the popular AnTuTu Benchmark app shows that the HTC DLX has been tested, and received an overall score of 11510. Keep in mind the international version of the Samsung Galaxy S III with its quad-core Exynos 1.4 GHz processor can get around 12000 in AnTuTu.
Not only would this would mean the HTC DLX would be the first Verizon device to get in that realm of benchmark scores, but it would also be the first to use the Snapdragon S4 Pro, and to come with a 1080p display. It still remains to be seen if the HTC DLX (which may be called the Droid Incredible X) will be marketed as a 5" phablet to compete with the Samsung Galaxy Note II (which has a 5.5" screen), or will be geared more as a phone to compete with the Samsung Galaxy S III and Motorola DROID RAZR HD. In either case, the next couple months look to be quite interesting!
