That's more like it. I hate that they are going back to bottom speakers, but I love those teeny tiny bezels. More screen, smaller phone, big battery?? Yup.

Take my money

It's an HTC 10 reworked, just like the sailfish is the HTC A9 reworked.

If true, this would make me very, very sad.

Not me. I think the HTC A9 is the best looking Android phone there is. But, the HTC 10 is a step down in the looks dept if you ask me.

I kind of dig it.

It'll be very interesting to see what it actually looks like. There a few renderings out there and I always wonder if these are really based on anything real or just dreamed up by someone with a SolidWorks license and too much free time on their hands...

It's almost always the latter.

I absolutely love it. I can't wait to purchase this thing.

Yeah, not really buying this render for the reasons below:

1. Android Police has proven to be an extremely reliable source of information.Their render had about 40% of the back of the phone in a glass or plastic pane along with the rest being probably metal.

2. Another article by Android Police had an animation showing the back fingerprint scanner also activating the pull down shade and the animation also mimics the previous leak with the 40% glass on the back.

3. This new render is from an article by Tech Droider, and to be honest, I've never heard of them, don't know them as a reliable leaker, the details are sketchy and I feel it might just be click-bait.

While I do think this new render looks better than the one Android Police had, I'm leaning towards the Android Police render being accurate and will be representative of the final design. Hope I'm wrong, as a 5.5" HTC 10 imo looks a lot better than the AP design, but I guess we'll see.
