HTC One (M9) will have new speaker design

More and more things about the upcoming HTC One (M9), codenamed Hima, are starting to leak. This time around we're hearing that despite what some previously leaked pictures have shown us, the device won't be almost identical in terms of design to its predecessor, the One (M8).

In fact, in certain aspects it will be quite different. For the design of its front, and specifically the BoomSound speakers, the One (M9) will reportedly be inspired by the Nexus 9 tablet, also made by HTC and pictured below.

Hence, the M9 is rumored to come with an edge to edge glass panel on its front. The speaker panels will no longer be exposed like they were in the original One and the One (M8). Rather, they will be enclosed within the aforementioned glass. This will get two 45 degree cutouts for the slit speaker grills, which will span around 50% of the handset's top and bottom edges.

And this will apparently make the One (M9)'s design closely resemble that of the Nexus 9. According to the source of the information, the new style will enable a "slicker" and "more refined" look on the new flagship smartphone when compared to its predecessors.

The black bar which rested under the screen in the One (M8) and housed the HTC logo will be gone from its successor, to the relief of many. This will happen because HTC made the plastic speaker panels, which are used to cover the speakers and amplifier, taller in the Hima. This means there's no need for that infamous black bar anymore, so it will be gone.

No matter how good all of this sounds, don't forget to keep in mind that we're only talking about a rumor for now and none of these details have been confirmed yet.
