HTC One X9 render surfaces, rear camera is strangely similar to the Nexus 6P

Right off of the heels of HTC’s One A9 event, the Taiwanese-based company is already planning to launch a new smartphone. The handset said to appear in Q1 2016 is rumored to be the One X9, and according to a new render, its rear camera is strangely similar to the Nexus 6P.

HTC was already accused of copying the iPhone 6’s design pattern, and now the new render is indicating that the company could be taking some design hints from Google and Huawei in its new One X9 handset. That’s not necessarily a bad thing. After all, there’s only so much you can do to make a smartphone unique. On top of that, there’s plenty of other handsets out there that are sporting rear camera visors.

One thing to note about this render is that the bezels could be some of the slimmest we’ve seen from HTC yet. The render by no means screams premium, but the One X9 could potentially be one of the slimmer handsets from HTC.

Keep in mind that this is just a render and is by no means anything official. Initial rumors indicate that the One X9 could sport a 5.5-inch Full HD display, a MediaTek processor, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage, a 13-megapixel rear camera, a 4-Ultrapixel front camera, and a 3,000mAh battery.

All we know for sure is that the One A9 is a nifty handset, and it might not be time for HTC to begin flooding the market with mid-range handsets while revenue continues to crumble.
