HTC One Max leaks next to the Note 3. Snapdragon 800 still a possibility? Sep 18th 2013, 11:04, by Bogdan Petrovan The One Max has already starred in a variety of leaks, and, at least when it comes to its external appearance, we have a good idea of what to expect. When it comes to internal specifications though, there's still some speculation going on, fueled by a recent tweet from @evleaks that claimed that the Max would run on a Snapdragon S4 Pro APQ8064, rather than a Snapdragon 800, as it was rumored initially. Today, we have a new and extensive leak about the HTC One Max, originating from China's Weibo microblogging platform. User TD Zhijia leaked several images of the upcoming oversized phone, along with a few interesting snippets of information. Note that the images below show a Chinese version of the HTC One Max, that could differ in terms of design and specs from the international model. First off, we have a group shot including the One Max, its main competitor – the Galaxy Note 3, and the Galaxy S4. With its 5.9-inch display and front-mounted dual speakers, the One Max is noticeably larger than the Galaxy Note 3.

Apparently, this may be a prototype or another type of non-final variant, and the commercial model would feature dual-SIM capability. Which brings us to the really interesting part – the HTC 8088 seems to be powered by a quad-core Qualcomm processor clocked at 1.7GHz, with an Adreno 320 GPU. This is likely a Snapdragon 600 processor, though we can't rule out the S4 Pro APQ8064 just yet. Interestingly, TD Zhijia claims that the final model could come with a Snapdragon 800 processor after all. That’s a claim we can’t verify in any way for now, so take it with salt. All rumors point to a HTC One Max launch in October, followed by in-store availability by the holiday season. We'll keep an eye out for more leaks, so stay tuned.
