A new report from renowned leakster Upleaks claims that HTC is looking to finally enter the smartwatch segment with a new wearable known as the “Petra“. It is said that this wearable will run a custom HTC developed operating system called RTOS instead of Google’s Android Wear platform. This means the wearable will be compatible with both Android and iOS devices at the time of launch.

The Petra will reportedly feature a 1.8 inch 32 x 160 resolution display, IP57 certification for water and dust resistance, more than 3 days of battery life and support for GPS. The smartwatch will weigh only 23 grams apparently, which is feather light for a wearable.

The launch is expected to take place by Q1 2015 so it should be shown off during HTC’s One M9 launch event on the 1st of March. The Petra will reportedly break cover in the U.S. first and is said to be available in Teal/Lime and Black/Blue Gray color variants.
