Meet the HTC WF5w, the thinnest smartphone from HTC yet

Generally, HTC smartphones are not made with thinness in mind. The company’s portfolio is filled with smartphones that measures more than 8.0mm thick. But with the One E9+, the thickness was reduced from above 8.0mm to 7.54mm, which gives the E9+ the title of the thinnest HTC smartphone yet. But not anymore, as HTC is prepping to unveil another smartphone that will take the title away from the One E9+.

The upcoming thin HTC smartphone is called ‘HTC WF5w’, and had already been approved by the China Telecommunication Equipment Certification Center (TENAA), which means that it won’t be long before it gets unveiled in the country. The HTC WF5w measures 7.49mm thick, and if you compare that to the 7.54mm thickness of the One E9+, the difference won’t easily be noticed, but it’s there.

The smartphone features a 5.5-inch 720p display, an octa-core processor, 2 GB of RAM, 13MP cameras on the front and back and 16 GB of built-in storage that can be further expanded up to 128GB with a microSD card. It runs Android 5.0.2 Lollipop with the latest Sense UI on top.

HTC might introduce an international version of the smartphone after launching it first in China, so lets wait and see.
