HTC is yet to debut its flagship smartphone for 2018 and the ongoing rumours tip that the HTC U12+ is in the works. Now the noted tipster Evan Blass has outed an image of the smartphone, giving a peek into the design language and external changes it could feature.

If the image is to be believed, the HTC U12+ will feature a display with thin bezels, similar to the U11 and the U11+. It might sport a quad camera setup with dual cameras on both its front and rear. The fingerprint sensor is placed on the rear, below the main cameras, with an LED flash.

It is expected to sport 6GB RAM with options for either 64GB or 128GB  expandable storage and launch running on Android Oreo. 

These specs are in line with a previous report and in the camera department, the U12+ is speculated to come with dual 8MP selfie cameras on the slim top bezel and its design and placement is akin to the recently introduced HTC U11 EYEs. On the rear, it’s said to feature a pair of 16MP + 12MP cameras. The device could be powered by a 3420mAh battery and is expected to come with the updated HTC Edge Sense 2.0. Also, due to some development issues, the launch date of the HTC U12+ has reportedly been delayed to early May.
