HTC to unify Butterfly, The updated HTC One coming later this year.

HTC One is scheduled to hit the market later this year. No details regarding specs are given, so it’s unclear how much of an upgrade this new device would be over the current HTC One. It could be another case of an HTC One X+ over the HTC One X. Or, the source may simply be referring to the HTC One Max, which is expected to launch in the next month or two. This will be the new updated version of the HTC ONE.

The source also claims that the 2014 follow-up to the HTC One is currently being referred to as the HTC M8. While the name doesn’t say much, HTC is using a variety of different code names when working with external sources in an effort to keep rumors and device leaks to a minimum.

The HTC Butterfly was unveiled in Asia and was altered slightly when the phone came to Verizon as the Droid DNA. The rumor suggests that HTC will kill off the HTC Butterfly line and move the polycarbonate-clad device under the HTC One name. With the HTC Butterfly S already announced, the consolidation work is not expected to kick in until early 2014.
