Official: HTC One max unveiled featuring fingerprint scanner, 5.9-inch 1080p display

03:12
After countless rumors and leaks, the HTC One max has finally been unveiled. While the 5.9-inch 1080p display of the HTC One max makes the device the largest in HTC’s lineup (164.5 x 82.5 x 10.29mm), the device isn’t that much different than the original HTC One. The HTC One max is powered by a 1.7GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 processor, with 2GB of RAM, 16/32GB of storage, front-facing stereo BoomSound speakers, an Ultrapixel (4 megapixels) camera, 2.1 megapixel front-facing camera with an 88° wide angle lens, NFC and a 3,300 mAh battery. While a few of those specs are different than from the HTC One, where the One max is really different is the inclusion of a fingerprint scanner, lack or optical image stabilization on the rear camera and a removable back panel which gives uses access to a microSD card slot (up to 64GB).
The HTC One max is the first device to run on HTC Sense 5.5 which features improvements to the galley app and video highlights, quick settings enhancements and a slew of customization options for BlinkFeed (Google+ and RSS integration along with the option to turn the feature completely off).
The HTC One max will begin rolling out across the globe starting this week, but we’ll have to wait for carrier partners to make their announcements regarding exact launch dates and pricing.
