Taiwanese smartphone manufacturer HTC will unveil the HTC U12+ flagship on May 23. As the date approaches, more details about the smartphone are being revealed. Reliable leaker Roland Quandt, on his Twitter handle @rquandt, said that the device would be available in the following color options: Black, Red Rose, Violet, and Translucent, which is a semi-transparent black introduced with its predecessor U11+.
As for the specs, the smartphone features a “Frameless display’ consisting of a 6-inch WQHD LCD and will be powered by the Qualcomm 845 chipset coupled with 64 GB internal storage. Roland Quandt also said a 64 GB internal storage with Dual SIM would be available in Europe.

As per the rumors, the smartphone will have a dual camera setup on the rear of 12 MP+ 12 MP or 12 MP+ 16 MP configuration and an 8 MP or 8 MP + 8 MP camera dual setup on the front. It will run on Android 8.0 Oreo and be backed by a 3,500 mAh battery with Quick Charge 4+ support. The frame is expected to come with IP68-rated water protection.
For the pricing, it is speculated that the smartphone will cost around $734 – $768 (Rs 47,500- Rs 50,000 approx) for the 64 GB ROM variant, while the higher 128 GB ROM variant will cost somewhere between $801- $734 (Rs 47,500- Rs 52,000) in Europe.
