Enhanced One M10 image
To the left, you can see the enhanced version of the leaked M10 photo. What do you think? To me, it definitely speaks of an A9-inspired design. It also lacks the front HTC logo, a much appreciated omission. What's notable here, though, is the fingerprint scanner – it has a less elongated shape compared to that of the One A9, and, as you can see, is mounted at an off-center position towards the bottom edge. To be honest, it doesn't look very promising. It's definitely below the design standards of the HTC that was. But then again, what do you expect from a company that lost its head of design. Twice.
With this new fingerprint scanner shape, the supposed HTC One M10 looks more like some of those Chinese Meizu phones, rather than the One A9.
With its less elongated fingerprint scanner and no front logo, the alleged M10 (center) looks more like this Meizu PRO 5 here (right), than the A9 (left).
