The HTC One A9 was the great smartphone that HTC could launch before the end of the year to compete with the iPhone 6s Plus and the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge +. However, it seems that in the end it will not be like that. Yes, the new mobile will arrive, but it will not even be a high-end smartphone. Apparently it will be a mid-range smartphone.
Mid-range
We believed that the new HTC One A9 would be a high-end mobile, and in fact, it seemed so when it was said that it would have the MediaTek Helio X20 processor, a high-level 10-core processor, which is only typical of smartphones. of the highest range on the market. However, nothing is further from reality, because in reality the HTC One A9 will be a mid-range mobile, with a new generation Qualcomm Snapdragon 617 processor and eight cores, but mid-range after all.
It is not the only thing that determines its range, because in addition to this it will also have a 2 GB RAM, which will not be 3 or 4 GB. Logically, with this RAM memory unit we cannot be talking about a high-level mobile, but only a mid-range mobile. Finally, it should be noted that the screen will have a Full HD resolution of 1.920 x 1.080 pixels. This resolution could have been that of a flagship, as is the case with the iPhone 6s Plus. However, along with the other features, it is typical of an upper-middle-range smartphone.
With great design
Of course, the smartphone will have a great design, which could be at the level of the iPhone 6s Plus. With an aluminum unibody construction, and in at least six different colors, it will be one of the best smartphones if what we want is a very attractive smartphone. However, it will not be that great rival for the flagships of Apple and Samsung. It will still be decisive to know what the price of the HTC One A9 will be, because now that we know that it will not be a high-end, with an interesting price, it could continue to be a good option, although it is most likely that being a mid-range, with a great design, its price is not exactly cheap.
