HTC Desire 10 might launch later this year

HTC 10 proved to be a successful flagship but, despite all the positive reviews it got, its manufacturer only estimates to ship one million units this year. This means that the big players involved in the smartphone market have nothing to worry about, at least for now. However, things might slightly change by the end of the year, as one new HTC Desire handset is said to be in the making.

Well-known leakster Evan Blass has recently unveiled that the new Desire smartphone is on its way. Unfortunately, his messages did not say much. "What's an HTC 10 without a Desire 10?" read the first message, followed by "*coming end of Q3," as well as an image that shows a purported camera module. This image suggests a dual-LED flash setup.

All the other specs leave much room for speculation at this stage. This being said we do not know yet if the new Desire smartphone has a metal build, BoomSound audio, a powerful processor, or not. All recent Desire devices targeted the low-end and mid-range areas of the market, so remains to see if the HTC Desire 10 follows this pattern or not.
