Taiwanese tech giant HTC has gone through a lot of criticism in last few months due to its flagship devices, which failed to turn the heads. The terminal is referred to as the “HTC One X9”, and all the rumors and leaks so far suggested that the X9 will be the company’s new top-tier smartphone, able to go head-to-head with even the fiercest rivals.

Alongside Qualcomm’s newest processor allegedly sits 4GB of RAM and a 3,500mAh battery. The One A9 has encountered a few problems in the U.S. though as reports revealed a delay in shipment and Verizon availability.

This information came shortly after the debut of HTC One A9, criticized because of the familiar design and technical specifications. That variant has of course made a good account for itself to date though it remains to be seen of the HTC One X9 is something that was meant to append that product branch line.

“To ensure the best experience for our customers on the Verizon network, we are conducting more extensive testing and certification”, the HTC email stated, according to Android Police. The expected smartphone will definitely run Android 6.0 Marshmallow out of the box, as the recently launched A9 also has the latest version of Google’s Android OS. We are working with Verizon to make it available as soon as possible.
