HTC is already gearing up for a good start this year, as speculations about its flagship products keep on coming out online. One of the much-anticipated lineup that fans hope to see early in 2016 is the follow-up in its One M series.

According to speculations, HTC has done everything it can to make the rumored One M10 a much-better iteration than the previous One M9, both in design and specs.

The Bit Bag speculated that in terms of design, the One M10 will carry the all-metal, unibody form factor associated with HTC flagships. However, instead of the normal design from previous One M iterations, the One M10 will have a sleeker image than the One M9. In addition, the industry follower also said that the upcoming One M iteration will feature curved bezels and edges.

Meanwhile, part of the design that will also be reportedly overhauled for the upcoming One M-series is its camera assembly. According to Latin Post, although the current-gen One M9 carries a 20-MP main shooter, it is unimpressive compared to the sharper, brighter images churned out by the cameras in Samsung's Galaxy S6 and LG's G4. This means that HTC has no choice but to come out with a novelty idea for its camera on the One M10.

The industry follower added that aside from the design, the One M10 is also rumored to get massive upgrades under its hood as well. The upcoming HTC flagship, as a premium iteration, is touted to be featuring the new Snapdragon 820 processor, as well as shifting to a QHD display.

Although the details remain speculations, fans might see the One M10 early this year. According to rumors, HTC plans to release the new premium flagship when the One X9 has hit the market (which it already did), and may come out some time in the first quarter of 2016.
