On Tuesday, the very popular Evan Blass shared information regarding HTC's upcoming handset: the One A9. This was originally believed to be a flagship to revive HTC during the holiday season, but the specifications from Blass prove otherwise. The most notable item on the alleged spec sheet to discredit the flagship rumors is the use of the Snapdragon 617 processor. Although new, the Snapdragon 617 belongs to Qualcomm's mid-tier series.

Here are the specifications provided by Blass:

5-inch Full HD (1920×1080) AMOLED display
Qualcomm Snapdragon 617 processor
2GB of RAM
13MP / 4UP cameras (with optical image stabilization)
16GB of internal storage (with microSD card slot)
2150mAh battery

Blass also notes that the One A9 will have a fingerprint scanner, measure about 7mm thin, and come in six colors. The handset will apparently be available in November.
