The HTC One Max has already been pictured a number of times ahead of its official debut, but the latest leaked shot is a little more interesting than the others. It appears to show a fingerprint sensor beneath the handset’s rear-facing camera, which HTC has reportedly added late into development following reports that the iPhone 5S will offer the same feature.
Just ten days after the unexpected Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean and Sense 5 update for the HTC One X+ in Taiwan, the Happy Telephone Company has now started to roll out exactly the same over-the-air upgrade to all One X devices in Europe.
Beats Electronics is looking to buy back HTC’s share in the company and find a new investor that can provide funds for growth, according to sources for The Wall Street Journal.

HTC’s President of Global Sales, Jason Mackenzie, has officially revealed that the HTC One Developer Edition will be skipping the Android 4.2.2 update and will jump straight to the latest Android 4.3 Jelly Bean.
Samsung’s latest handset, the mammoth 6.3-inch Galaxy Mega, has been available in both Europe and Asia for the past couple of months now, and currently we are seeing initial signs suggesting that it could be on its way to the U.S.
