HTC U12 Life will have a Snapdragon 660 chipset instead of a 636

The HTC U12 Life is shaping up to be the company’s first phone with a Snapdragon 660 chipset. That’s what Geekbench is showing us, along with 4GB of RAM and Android 8.1 Oreo.

This is an upgrade over previous rumors that suggested a Snapdragon 636. The RAM is as rumored and while Geekbench doesn’t list built-in storage, it should be 64GB.

The Life is positioned as a “lite” version of the HTC U12+ flagship. From what we’ve glimpsed of its design through leaks, the front will look like the U12+ with a 6-inch 18:9 screen (1,080 x 2,160px).

However, the back will be very different – a mix of Pixel (a two-tone design) and the iPhone X (the camera). Speaking of, the dual camera is allegedly a 16MP + 5MP shooter, the selfie camera should have a 13MP sensor and an LED flash.

Don’t forget that the HTC U12 Life will be unveiled in two days.

Thanks for sending this in, Michael!
