Invites being sent out to press members for an event hosted by HTC in China point to a launch of an unspecified device. The company is utilizing metal plates with March 11-17 along with Chinese lettering and that, of course, has sparked speculation. It is expected that HTC launches either the One M9 Plus or One E9, maybe both, in China by the end of next week.
The metal plate of the invitation would be favorable for the One M9 Plus to be announced because of its own design. Why not announce a metal phone with a metal invitation? Makes sense to me. The One E9 is plastic and it just would not make sense to give a premium-feeling invitation for a device that conveys the opposite. The One E9 has received certification is China and the One M9 Plus has yet to be announced anywhere else.
Basically, it is a complete tossup to figure out what HTC has coming.
