Google is expected to reveal two HTC made Nexus devices later this month or in next. Meanwhile, the internet giant has inadvertently leaked a picture of HTC Sailfish in its latest video promoting the Google Photos app. It was hinted first by the popular tipster and HTC enthusiast, The_Malignant, when he tweeted about the same.
While the video mocked iPhone’s storage problem, it might well have accidentally given at least a hint as to what HTC Sailfish will actually look like. Well, some claimed that the phone is just a moulded version of iPhone SE, and some claimed that it might be just a Dummy model of any other smartphone.
Another thing which is apparent from the video is the presence of 2.5D curved glass on top which was never seen in the previous leaks. To claim this as the next Nexus would be too ambitious in our opinion, but we won’t be surprised if HTC Nexus Sailfish looks a lot similar to this.
