HTC has several new phones upcoming. The most famous are of course the HTC M9 HIMA and HTC M9 PLus. Now we learned of another HTC Phone, the A55 which is definitely more then noteworthy.

The HTC A55 was originally part of the Desire Series, and expected to be a budget device. According to newest reports by upleaks the HTC A55 is actually not inferior to the HTC M9. HTC A55 will come with a 64-BIT Mediatek MT6795 clocked up to 2.0Ghz.

The MT6795 can clearly compete with the Snapdragon 810 CPU and clearly a cpu for high end flagship phones. It has a mix of 4X Cortex A53 and 4X A57 cores. Also you get many features that you know from the Antutu Winner Meizu MX4 like Mediatek CorePilot (power consumption), Mediatek Clear Motion (smoother videos) and MediateK ViraVision (DTV-grade picture quality).

Additionally the HTC A55 will have a 5.5″ 2K Display with a outstanding 2560 × 1440 resolution, 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal memory. Camera Lovers will get a 20 Million MP Rear Camera with LED FLash and 13MP Frontfacing Camera. Similiar to the HTC M8 the HTC A55 will also get BOOM Sound, and the latest Android 5.0 Update.

Clearly the HTC A55 specs can rival any of todays flagships. The only weak point might be the battery with less then 3000mAH for the 5.5″ 2K Display. Also we are not very clear of the strategic placement of the HTC A55. Maybe it will be a cheaper version of the HTC M9, to enlarge the M9 offering?

The HTC A55 Release Date will probably be along the HTC M9 in March. What do you think about the HTC A55?
