HTC U12+ set for May 23 launch as live images leak

Details of HTC’s next flagship have floated around the Internet for a while now. A cryptic tweet by the company’s official US handle, however, has touted the launch of a new device, one we expect to be the much-anticipated flagship.

The tweet in question reads thus: “Coming soon. A phone that is more than the sum of its specs.” That doesn’t sound particularly exciting, we would say, and definitely doesn’t offer the hype one would expect for a flagship. The image on the tweet also shows internal components of a smartphone, including a sim tray, a charging circuit, and other such gizmos.

Images of the device surfaced a few days ago, with the back showcasing dual rear cameras, and a design that looks quite similar to the LG V20's. There are two selfie shooters at the front, a USB Type-C port at the bottom, and, of course, no headphone jack.
