After releasing successors to HTC One and One Mini smartphones, the Taiwanese manufacturer HTC is now working on the follow-up of One Max. According to a report in MyDrivers.com, this One Max successor will sport a 5.5-inch Quad-HD (2560x1440p) display and arrive sometime this quarter i.e. Q4, 2014.

With more and more smartphone manufacturers going for QHD displays in their large-screen smartphones, HTC’s decision to include it in One Max 2 doesn’t come as a surprise. Among other specifications, the phone is said to include quad-core 2.7GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 processor, 3GB of RAM, and Sense 6.5 with latest version of Android.  HTC will also pack a 3000 mAh battery and 18MP rear camera with optical image stabilisation in the smartphone.

In addition, MyDrivers notes that HTC is using silicon carbide alloy and aluminium in the chassis of the One Max follow-up to make it look premium and feel sturdy.

No other details are available at this point but we hope to see more leaks and rumours in the days leading up to the launch of One Max successor.

To remind you, HTC is also working on a variant of One M8 smartphone with codename One M8_Eye, which is rumoured to pack a 13MP Duo camera and 5.2-inch FHD display. Rest of the specifications of the phone will be same as One M8. Read more about the phone in our full report.
