HTC One MX

HTC One MX Imagined by Hass T, With Subtle but Necessary Changes

Frankly speaking, I’m more excited to see the HTC Aero right now than the HTC One M10. Well, the latter has been rendered by Hass T, who named it HTC One MX (with X being 10 as a Roman numeral). The designer calls this HTC’s hero phone, so let’s get into it.

The creator of the concept calls it a “refined version of the M9″, with the new USB Type C connector and a new 21 megapixel back camera with OIS. There’s BSI in the mix, a wide F/2.1 aperture and advanced autofocus, as well as dual LED flash. The handset comes with Android M with HTC Sense 7.0 on top. The design itself hasn’t changed that much.

We still get an aluminum unibody case, that’s rounded and seems slimmer now. The camera is still big and square and upfront there are the two BoomSound speakers with a discrete grille. HTC One MX is shown in what looks like a gold and “space gray” version.

Nexus X Concept Phone

Nexus X Concept Phone is Made of Aluminum, Features Removable Battery and Fingerprint Scanner

Designer Hass. T has created a new Nexus concept phone dubbed Nexus X, that brings a few new traits to the series. The handset comes with an aluminum case and what the designer calls a “simple and elegant” look.

This model is made of aluminum, has a removable battery and microSD card slot. Hass. T also included at the front a Nexus “X” logo, that lights up and serves as a fingerprint scanner, unlocking the device with the touch of a finger. Nexus X has Gorilla Glass 4 protection at the front and runs on the new Android M. The finishing is black/slate and new colors were promised by the concept’s creator.

The design is rather bulky and massive, but after all the Nexus models were always kind of bulky, don’t you think? We can’t tell which brand would manufacture the phone, but to me it kind of feels like a Motorola. What’s certainly lacking here is an USB Type C port, but the designer has promised to fix that through a future update.  The back texture feels like that soft touch plastic we’ve been used over the past two generations, rather than metal.
