While we’ve heard of one Prime device, the Samsung Galaxy S5 Prime, that may be released very soon with an upgraded display which is capable of 2K resolutions, there may be another Prime device also on the distant horizon. That other device could be the HTC One M8 which was launched earlier this year with “only” a 1080p resolution display (the other being of course the Galaxy S5), but rumours are saying that HTC is also planning a HTC One M8 Prime which will update the device with a Quad HD, 2K display sometime in September.
Not only would HTC be updating the display of the device, the M8 Prime would also have an updated processor, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 805, which is likely to be available in September as well as an update of the pairing of the Duo camera to 18MP and 5MP (UltraPixel). While the details do appear to be a bit hazy, it wouldn’t be that unusual to see a second flagship device from HTC appear in September given that most other Android manufacturers have migrated to a biannual flagship cycle i.e. Sony, and likely LG. But as always with these rumours, we’ll have to wait and see.
What do you think about the existence of a HTC One M8 Prime? Would you like to get a device like this? Let us know what your thoughts are.
