HTC is bringing back its back-lit capacitive Android buttons and its Boomsound speakers on this device. The buttons are located at the bottom of the phone, thus leaving space for the HTC's speakers in the front.

The phone has a 5.5-inch 1,080p IPS LCD screen. It is powered by an octa-core MediaTek X10 chipset running its Android HTC Sense. A 3,000 mAh battery sustains the gadget.

It has 3 GB of RAM, 32 GB of storage that can be expanded to 2 TB through a microSD card slot.

It sports a 13-megapixel main camera with optical stabilization and dual-tone flash, as well as an UltraPixel front camera. It also offers dual Nano SIM card slots.

The HTC One X9 also offers regular UMTX 3G (850/900/1900/2100), along with China Mobile's TD-SCDMA 3G (1900/2000) and dual-mode LTE (FDD bands 1/3/5/7/8/28; TDD bands 38/39/40/41).

The HTC One X9 is available for consumers in China at the moment and is listed at a price of 2,399 yuan (roughly $370) off-contract. At this price point, the X9 is HTC's most affordable hero device yet and competes with similarly priced devices from Xiaomi, Huawei, Oppo, and Vivo.

HTC has made no announcements as to the phone's release date, if ever, in other regions.
