Said to boast Qualcomm APQ8064 quad-core processor and a 13 megapixel camera.

According to industry sources, HTC is planning to release a new flagship, quad-core powered smartphone during the first quarter of 2013.

Despite the powerful Droid DNA launching a few weeks ago, the Taiwanese manufacturer is purportedly working with its suppliers for a new handset in the form the HTC M7.

Various sources have suggested HTC is ensuring that enough semiconductors and casings can be produced in order to manufacture between 4 million and 5 million units of the phone during the opening stages of 2013.

The HTC M7 is said to feature a 5-inch HD display, a Qualcomm APQ8064 quad-core processor and a 13 megapixel camera.

Samsung's rumored, all-but-confirmed Galaxy S4 is also reportedly set to boast similar technical specifications, with a launch scheduled for Q1, 2013.

    Samsung had better hurry up with that s4 or risk being bested by the competition.

    Don't forget non removeable battery, 16GB storage and no micro-sd slot.

    Do miracles happen?

    Seems 5" inch is the new 4". With the Note 2 coming in now at 5.4" is anyone going to push the boundary and make a 6" phone?

    Yay. More cores that won't get used and instead serve to drain the battery faster.

    HTC, make sure you get
    1) 3,000mah+ if you're getting non-removable battery
    2) 32/64GB if you're getting no microSD ports
    3) quad core S4 pro at 1.5ghz+
    4) 2GBs of ram
    5) above average screen
    6) above average camera

    cram all that and have it on contracts(2 years) for $200 and you will see a lot of sales ;)
