HTC One M9 Prime Rumors, Specs, Features, Price, Release Date

The recent news for a premium smartphone by HTC in the coming months has yielded the idea of an HTC One M9 Prime. The upcoming state of the art phone by one of the industry leaders is expected to give us all that the M9 will give us, and then so much more. To appeal to consumers who are looking for the same great specifications and features of one of the most popular smartphone lines, but with even more comes the belief of an HTC M9 Prime.

While the phone has yet to be officially announced by HTC, leaks are coming up all over the net that depicts a premium version for the upcoming M9. With a true metal body surround, bigger screen, new specs, and premium features, the Prime is already peaking the interest of consumers. Below, you will see the latest information on all HTC One M9 Prime Rumors, Specs, Features, Price, and Release Date info.

HTC One M9 Prime Rumors

For the past couple of months, HTC One M9 Prime rumors are popping up all over the internet. The rumors surround a premium version of the HTC One M9, and one that consumers have been asking for since the last release. While the M8 brought forth some incredible features, it was lacking some to help distinguish it as a premium smartphone.

It was initially believed that both the Prime version and the M9 would be released at the same time, but what we are hearing now that this would not be the case. While HTC is looking to help boost the Prime name, we are in full belief that the HTC M9 Prime would be released first.

Much of the Prime version of the HTC One M9 is still unknown, but based on what we have been able to determine is that some of the same will be seen, and then much that is different. As consumers are looking for something bigger and better, having the premium variant and the standard variant will help give HTC the competitive edge.

HTC One M9 Prime Specs

Most of the HTC One Prime specs are still unknown, but we have been able to pick out what we are expecting to see. Below, you will see a breakdown of the expected specifications of the M9:

Specifications	HTC One M9 Prime Specs
Battery	4000 mAh
Camera – Front Facing	5 MP front camera
Camera – Rear facing	18 MP Duo rear camera
Features	Waterproof, dustproof, and shockproof – outer body surround made of liquid silicone and aluminum
Memory	16, 32, 64, and expandable up to 128 MB
Operating System	Android 5.0

Processor	Snapdragon Qualcomm 805 processor Quad-core 2.3 ghz
RAM	3 GB RAM
Release Date	2nd Week March 2015

The specs of the premium version will help HTC compete with other upcoming releases as all the major players will be releasing a premium version of their flagship phone. Apple, Samsung, Sony, and LG are all intending the same, so the new specifications will be interesting to see how they match up.

As more becomes known on the HTC M9 specs, we will continually bring in the very latest.

HTC One M9 Prime Features

Two premium features that will help distinguish the Prime from the M9 is a dustproof, shockproof, and waterproof design. Many premium flagships are launching with a premium variant, and as HTC looks to continue its success in the smartphone market having such a release makes the most sense.

The dustproof feature would appeal to those who enjoy the visual aspects, shockproof feature would help with the durability of the phone itself, and the waterproof design would enhance the durability as well as help create some amazing underwater pictures.

Some other features that have been rumored, but are probably more far-fetched is a fingerprint and eye sensing scanners. While the technology is already in place and evident in other phones, it is doubtful that HTC would have the time to bring them into the Prime concept.

HTC One M9 Prime Price

As consumers have been asking for more, the price of the HTC One M9 Prime will be slightly higher than some have been expecting. With a price tag of $800 – 1000 for non-contracts, and a price of $299 – 399 for renewal or new cell contracts, the price will be higher than the standard M9. Factors that could increase the price even more are the possibility for memory variants that could increase the price another $100.

HTC One M9 Prime Release Date Info

The most consistent HTC One M9 Prime rumors point to a mid-March 2015 release which would bring it out about two weeks before the expected M9. The official announcement isn’t expected until week one in March, but we are already counting down the days with the amount of information that we have seen. As we find out more information as to the official announcement of the HTC M9 Prime and the release date, you will see it here before anywhere else.
