Leaked HTC Bolt Reveals Specs and Features

HTC Bolt leak reveals design, specs and features.

HTC Bolt has just been leaked with details about its specs and features. One of the most noteworthy things about it is that it won’t include a headphone jack, just as Apple’s iPhone 7.

The HTC bolt has rumored to be in development for a time now. The leaked images show the physical device in the wild and not as a rendered image. The HTC Bolt has a similar design to the HTC 10 phone, which is the company flagship device. It has a metal design that makes it look great, more solid and safe while appearing like a premium device although according to its specs it is a midrange phone.

The HTC Bolt leak reveals that the company is trying to emulate Apple by not including a headphone jack. Many iPhone users were not pleased with the decision but it remains to be seen if HTC can convince their fans that the phone is worth it. The leaked images and details come from VentureBeat’s Evan Blass. Besides the design of the phone, he has also revealed some of its specs.

The HTC Bolt features a 5.5-inch FHD display, which is larger than the HTC 10. It comes with 3 GB of RAM, 64GB of standard storage capacity which can also be expanded thanks to its microSD card slot. HTC Bolt’s main camera has 18 MP which is superior to HTC 10’s 12 MP.

A previous leak showed that the HTC Bolt will have Android 7.0 Nougat installed right out of the box. As with all HTC devices, the phone will have HTC Sense on top of the basic Android OS. This information has been reinforced by the new leak as well. Many see the HTC Bolt as successor to the 2011 Thunderbolt which was released as a Verizon exclusive. Thus, there are expectations it will continue the trend of being exclusive, although this time to Sprint.

The phone will also be launched in all global markets, as HTC is trying to recover some of the market shares it lost. Samsung’s failure is HTC’s opportunity and the Bolt is capable enough to fill in the gap. However, its success depends on how customers will react to the controversial decision to remove the jack.
