The Taiwanese smartphone maker HTC has presented an updated version of its J Butterfly smartphone. The new handset measures 151 x 73 x 10.1 mm and weighs 162 grams.

The new J Butterfly offers a plastic chassis that houses a Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor with four 64-bit Cortex-A57 cores and four Cortex-A53 cores on the big.LITTLE architecture and integrated Adreno 430 graphics. The device sports LTE support and offers a 5.2-inch sensor display at Quad HD resolution (2560 x 1440 pixels, 565 ppi), 3 GB of RAM, 32 GB of internal memory, a microSD card slot (up to 128 GB), a rear 20 MP camera with HTC Duo Camera technology and support for 4K videos, a front 13 MP camera, a GPS/GLONASS receiver, 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC, two Dolby integrated speakers, 3.5-mm audio jacks, a micro USB port and a 2700 mAh battery. The plastic chassis of the device is somewhat compensated by the fact that it is water and dust-resistant.

The updated HTC J Butterfly runs HTC Sense 7 UI on top of Android 5.0 Lollipop and will be available next month. The price of the handset was not disclosed.
