A couple of fine details we didn’t hear about the HTC 10 have surfaced thanks to another report by @evleaks. The man has reported that the HTC 10 will not feature a 5.2-inch Super AMOLED as has been previously reported. HTC will instead opt to go with Super LCD 5.
Super LCD, simply put, is an improvement over traditional LCD which has the liquid crystal element laminated directly onto the display as opposed to the two having a small gap between them. This makes for a more clear panel, and one which makes the software appear to be more “on the surface” than you would see on a traditional LCD panel. This tactic also reduces screen glare. The HTC One M9 used Super LCD 3, so we’ll have to see whether this supposed Super LCD 5 panel is doing anything new that’ll blow our socks off.
Moving on, the man also mentioned a 3,000mAh battery, which isn’t an amazing jump from the HTC One M9’s 2,840mAh battery (it’s around the same you’ll find in the Samsung Galaxy S7, but more than the LG G5’s 2,800mAh pack) but should be plenty enough for those who value the extra juice.
Other rumored HTC 10 specs include Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 820 chipset, 4GB of RAM, 32GB of storage and a fingerprint scanner. HTC is likely to announce this thing sometime between late March and Mid-Late April, so we’ll have to get through LG’s upcoming LG G5 launch before we know exactly how the Taiwanese company plans to trump everyone.
