The HTC One E9s Dual SIM is listed on the NCC website with the model name – HTC E9sx and has the certification number – CCAF154G0270T2. The device is expected to be similar to the HTC E9sw and E9st which has been spotted on TENAA in China.
The HTC E9sx supports all the full range of 4G LTE in Taiwan, WiFi and Bluetooth also confirmed. In terms of specs it is a toned down version of the One E9 and One E9+; this means it would have a 5.5-inch (1280 x 720 pixels) display, run Android 5.0 Lollipop OS and has the signature BoomSound speakers on the front.

Despite the company seeing struggling sales of its latest flagship – the HTC One M9, the company is trying to forge ahead. The company is now following the same path as Samsung by releasing several smartphones into the market. Will this strategy yield the desired effect, only time would tell.
