It seems we have received a more credible indication of what the HTC One Max, the device which had been formerly known as HTC T6, will finally look like.

This is thanks to the round the HTC One Max has made through the Tenaa (Telecommunication Equipment Certification Centre) which can be considered the Chinese equivalent of FCC in the US. However, the images have now been removed from the Chinese site. There is nothing new that these leaked images at Tenaa reveal, only further confirming that the HTC One Max will be indeed coming with fingerprint scanner.

Moreover, Mobileaks, a Dutch site has revealed some of the specifications expected in the rumoured HTC One Max which include a 5.9-inch Super LCD full-HD (1080x1920) display, 1.7GHz quad-core Qualcomm processor, Ultra Pixel camera, Fingerprint Scanner and would run Android 4.3 Jelly Bean.

The HTC One Max with fingerprint scanner had been spotted earlier on a Taiwanese site. The images revealed a fingerprint scanner beneath the rear camera. It was also reported that the launch of the upcoming phablet from HTC was pushed to the end of October because of the addition of the new feature.

The fingerprint scanner, if true, could be HTC One Max's USP and could be found usage for authentication process to unlock the phone or for mobile payment authorisations. Meanwhile, Apple has already unveiled the iPhone 5s with a built-in fingerprint scanner called Touch ID.

Last week, the HTC One Max seemingly leaked again and was being compared to Samsung's Galaxy Note phablets.
