According to Chinese web site ePrice, HTC appears to have jumped on the brightly colored smartphone bandwagon based on several leaked photos. The images show a device, believed to be a new version of the HTC Desire, in yellow, orange, red and a teal color. In addition to the bright new colors, HTC is supposedly set to equip the device with a MediaTek eight-core processor and 1.5GB of RAM. The device will supposedly come with a 5-inch 720p capable screen. Running on this hardware will be HTC's Sense 5.5 UI layered on top of Android 4.3.

The device is thought to be targeted at the Chinese market. By including a wide variety of colors, it appears HTC intends to have this device compete against Apple's iPhone 5c with their recent entry into the Chinese market. According to ePrice, the new HTC device is expected to sell for less than 2,000 yuan ($330 USD).
