A video featuring an in-depth look-around at the middle and back casing of the rumored HTC M7 smartphone was leaked to Etrade Supply this morning.
It's hard to confirm if this video really is of the M7, especially because it doesn't look exactly like the leaked photo of the M7 shown above. In fact, the flash seems to be on the wrong side, and the wrong shape. However, if this is the new M7, it's bigger than the HTC One X and a little shorter than the HTC DNA, making the case in the video seem like it would house the rumored 4.7 inch M7 screen.
The biggest news out of this video is the little button on the bottom right hand side of the phone, which apparently is a dedicated camera button. For people who pretty much use their smartphone as their camera (and with the new generation's standard 13 megapixel camera, who wouldn't?), this is a great new little feature for the M7.
The HTC M7's rumored specs have also been floating around the blogosphere for some time now. It looks like it will sport a 1.7GHz quad-core processor with 2GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. The screen has been reported in some places to be 5 inches, but is now generally agreed upon to be 4.7 inches. The display will have 1080P high definition output, though the exact resolution capability for the M7's screen is still murky. Finally, the M7 looks like it will come with two cameras. The front-facing camera will likely be 2 megapixels with high definition capability, and the rear camera will probably be what the new generation of smartphones seem to hold standard - 13 megapixels.
It is rumored to run the latest version of Android Jelly Bean, version 4.2. We thought we would have to wait until the Mobile World Congress in late February for these rumors to be confirmed, but now it looks like we may have answers by midway through next month on February 19th. Check back with us for more information on the M7 and other devices that are coming out in the first half of 2013.
