HTC LogoAccording to a report in Forbes, HTC’s upcoming flagship smartphone, which might carry the ‘HTC Two’ or ‘HTC One Two’ branding, will come with a 4.9-inch display and Qualcomm processor. No specifics are known at this point but we can expect the display to be at-least full HD if not QHD (2560x1440p) like LG or Samsung flagship models.
