HTC One Max Release Date to Coincide With Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Jul 15, 2013 02:06 AM EDT

HTC is reportedly launching a 6-inch version of its HTC One in September, the same time that Samsung is launching its expected Galaxy Note 3 prior to the IFA conference in Berlin.

MobileGeeks’ owner, Sascha Pallenberg, said the HTC One Max will have a 6-inch 1080p Super LCD 3 display, 2.3GHz quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor as the Samsung Note 3 is rumored to have the same, 2GB of RAM, and up to 64GB storage options and a 3,200mAh battery, according to sources close to Mobile Geeks.

The Taiwanese tech giant was reported to have failed to market its “best ever” smart phone HTC One and was reported to have an 83% drop in profit, which is the lowest in seven years, according to Wall Street Journal.

While the media have hyped up the soon-to-be released Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and Galaxy S5, HTC has held on in the competition, albeit its lower marketing budgets compared with other industry leader Apple and Samsung.

Would HTC One Max help the Taiwanese smartphone maker regain its footing in the battle for market shares? The results will come to pass.
