HTC didn’t reference the device by name, but we’ve encountered plenty of leaks regarding what we believe is the HTCU12 Plus (or HTCU12) and expect it to arrive soon.

The tweet includes an image of a smartphone outline surrounded by components, but it doesn’t give us many clues about what’s in store. The HTCU12 Plus is tipped to include high-end specs, including a Snapdragon 845 chipset, 18:9, WQHD+ resolution display and dual 12MP + 16MP rear cameras.
