HTC One's rumoured successor, thought to be codenamed 'M8', is again in the news, because of the purportedly leaked specifications published by prolific phone tipster @evleaks.
@evleaks on Thursday posted some of the purported specifications of the yet-to-announced HTC M8 smartphone in its tweet. The tweet suggests that these are the preliminary specifications of the HTC M8.
According to the tweeted specifications by the famous tipster, the M8 will have a 5-inch 1080p display powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8974 coupled with 2GB of RAM and Sense 6.0 UI on top of Android 4.4 KitKat.

The leaked specifications also hinted that the alleged smartphone might boast a 5 or 5.2-inch display and also speculated that the launch of alleged HTC M8 to happen at MWC 2014.
But later @evleaks while replying to a Twitter user named Julie Birchfield who asked about the release of rumoured HTC's 2014 flagship on Verizon, said that the alleged HTC M8 could possibly be released on all four carriers in US, namely AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon by the end of March, which was contrary to Eprice's earlier report.
Even earlier, there were a few alleged leaked images of the HTC's rumoured 2014 flagship smartphone, the M8, doing the rounds in early November.
