Updated HTC One M9+ Aurora Edition with 21MP camera, OIS, and Laser AutoFocus set to hit Taiwan in October

It’s getting closer to Google’s announcement on all things Nexus and maybe a device that isn’t, but let’s not forget that HTC also unveiled a couple of handsets today at a press event held in Japan. Besides announcing that the Butterfly would be released from captivity and re-branded as the Butterfly 3 before spreading its wings to international markets, HTC also announced an updated One M9+ Aurora Edition, the specs of which are after the break.

Basically, the HTC One M9+ Aurora Edition is pretty much the same as the M9+ that was announced earlier in the year, albeit with an updated camera.
