2014 has been an excellent year for Android phones, as the Galaxy Note 4, the HTC One (M8), the 2014 Moto X and the LG G3 have all won widespread praise. Now as we start turning the page over to 2015, we’re starting to see some leaked pictures of some of next year’s phones including the highly anticipated new HTC One (M9).

Nowhereelse.fr has obtained some leaked pictures that purportedly show the One (M9)’s front panel and it appears that HTC will once again make its flagship phone slightly bigger than last year’s model. Nowhereelse.fr says that the leaked picture seems to show that the One (M9) will have a display size of 5.2 inches, which will be bigger than the One (M8)’s display of 5 inches.

This leak contradicts an earlier leak we saw that claimed the One (M9) will feature a 5.5-inch display with 2560 x 1440 resolution, Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 processor, 3GB of RAM, 16-megapixel camera with optical image stabilization (OIS) and 3,500 mAh battery.

We’ve posted one leaked picture of the purported HTC One (M9)’s panel below but you should really head over to Nowhereelse.fr to see more, including a comparison of the new panel with the front panel of the HTC One (M8).
