HTC sends out invites to a November 2 event, is it the U11 Plus?

HTC could announce its next flagship, the U11 Plus, at an event on November 2 in Taipei if a leaked press invite is to be believed.

The invite, pictured below, reports the date and time and is labeled with a self-explanatory U, signaling the announcement of a new U-series device.

Smart money goes to this being the rumored HTC U11 Plus - a new flagship with a 5.99-inch 18:9 display of Quad HD+ resolution (1440x2880px), Snapdragon 835 chipset, either 4GB or 6GB of RAM and 64GB and/or 128GB of built-in storage.

There will likely be a 12MP optically stabilized main camera with bright f/1.7 optics, UltraSpeed autofocus and an 8MP selfie snapper around the front. There's no word if HTC's BoomSound speakers will flank the 18:9 screen.

The HTC U11 Plus is rumored to sport two color options - Brilliant Black and Amazing Silver.

It seems that HTC is nowhere near giving up its smartphone business, despite selling its Pixel staff to Google.
