More and more information is leaking out regarding the 5.9 inch phablet from HTC, called the HTC One Max. It looks identical to the HTC One, except is bigger in all dimensions.
The HTC One Max has 5.9-inch 1920×1080-pixel display, 1.7GHz processor Snapdragon S4 Pro according to a previous rumours, although it could be a Snapdragon 600 as well, 2GB RAM, 5-megapixel camera with UltraPixel tech, 16GB of storage, a 3,300mAh battery, and Android 4.3 Jelly Bean.
Looking at the specs it seems HTC are selling this somewhat short. All new phones are now being released with the new Snapdragon 800, which not only is more powerful, but has better battery life. In addition, the Max only comes in 16gb, whereas the smaller HTC One has 32 or 64gb. The only increase appears to be a 5mp camera up 1mp from the 4mp found on the HTC One.
There is also a rumoured fingerprint scanner on the rear, although I am not so sure about this being true.
So, is this phone for you?
Perhaps HTC are looking to undercut Samsung on price?

That is possible. But with the Note 3 and Z Ultra as competition, even the Mega 6.3, that seems like a dangerous strategy.
