[caption id=“attachment_4475397” align=“alignleft” width=“380”] HTC U12 Plus render. Image: Twitter/ Evan Blass[/caption] It was again popular tipster Evan Blass who took to his Twitter account to reveal a render of the U12 Plus in three different colour variants. Looking at the image, the HTC U12 Plus will be launched in three colours, grey, black and a shade of red which looks more like maroon in the image. The design in itself is very characteristic of HTC, who seem to have ditched their super glossy design aesthetic on the back for a new translucent looking design which shows us a little of the hardware inside. The render is not really clear enough to identify the material used here but it sure seems interesting. On the front, we see a tall 18:9 display with bezels on the top and bottom. Leaving looks aside, Blass also managed to get his hands on a document which details the specifications of the phone. As per the document, the HTC U12 Plus will feature a large 6-inch QHD+ Super LCD display which comes in at a resolution of 2880 x 1440 pixels.
