If you’re not a fan of the unibody aluminum shell of the HTC One (M8), you may be glad to hear that the next iteration of the HTC Butterfly will feature all of the specs of the M8 enclosed in a glossy (most likely plastic) body. According to the latest rumor, the phone may launch at the HTC B2 (Butterfly 2) in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Japan.
While the HTC Butterfly has been well received in the past, we’re not sure why HTC would want the phone to feature the same specs as the HTC One (M8) since the HTC M8 Ace will also have the same specs inside a plastic body. If both the HTC B2 and HTC M8 Ace are released, HTC will have three phones with identical names. If that’s not confusing, we’re not sure what is.
HTC B2 is new Butterfly device, specs are the same as M8. Glossy body. It will be sold only in HK/Taiwan/Japan and some other Asian markets.
