Reliable leaker @LlabTooFeR posted a tweet claiming the O2 flagship is dead, and HTC Perfume is the new 2016 flagship. HTC Perfume is an internal codename, and-according to the leaker the commercial name will be different.

Most of the HTC updates to phones have added Android 6.0 and Sense 7.0, so Sense 8.0 should launch with Google’s next update to Android Marshmallow. We don’t know when it will launch, though the addition of Android 6.1 strongly hints at a 2016 release. Google is working on Android 6.1, but we still have no official release date for the update. Internal specs have not been disclosed, but we suspect a lot of the headlining specs from the O2, M10, and X9 rumors will be retained on the HTC Perfume. Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 820 processor has been rumored in all three leaks, alongside 4GB of RAM, and the return of BoomSound speakers. Other specs are still in the air, including the internal memory, battery size, screen size, screen resolution, and the addition of a fingerprint sensor and Force Touch. On the X9 leak, the rumors point to a 5-inch display with 2K resolution, while the O2 and M10 rumors mention a 6-inch, 2K display. Recent leaks have made the X9 seem less like a flagship however, with a TENAA filing showing a 5-inch 1080p display and 2GB of RAM. HTC might be planning multiple high-end smartphones for 2016, to compete with Samsung and Sony’s growing range of devices.
