Quad-Core HTC Endeavor Coming to MWC as One X

Rumors on the upcoming HTC Endeavor smartphone continue to surface, though nothing has been confirmed for the moment. Initially leaked as HTC Edge, the smartphone was renamed to Endeavor last week.

There was also a leaked RUU for the HTC Endeavor, which confirmed the phone would be delivered with Sense 4.0. Several specs have been spotted as well, but the device may be subject to last minute changes.

Today, the folks over at Pocketnow have come up with new details  regarding the HTC Endeavor. It 

appears that once again, HTC decided to change the name of the smartphone, which is now expected to be launched at MWC 2012 as HTC One X.

Moreover, the “X” letter will be placed as a superscript after the name “One” due to branding purposes. Pocketnow, also says that a Danish HTC subcontractor reserved the htc-one-x.dk domain, possibly in order to use it for the smartphone’s retail.

The information somewhat comes as a confirmation, as HTC already trademarked this One name last year, but no other details regarding this branding emerged afterwards.

For the time being, HTC One X aka HTC Endeavor aka HTC Edge will be the company’s first quad-core smartphone. Rumor has it that this one will be equipped with an Nvidia Tegra 3 quad-core chipset, as well as a large 4.7-inch capacitive touchscreen display with 720p resolution.

LTE-support is another strong point of the smartphone, along with its 8-megapixel rear camera, which features autofocus, LED flash and full HD (1080p) video recording. There’s also a secondary 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera for self-portraits and video calls.

Obviously, it will come with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth support, as well as microSD card slot for memory expansion and built-in GPS receiver.

In the same news, recent speculations point to a possible release in the UK via Orange and Vodafone carriers, but this has yet to be confirmed by HTC.
