HTC One M10 name confirmed, camera sample shown

Bit by bit, the HTC One M10 is coming together, and today there are two more of pieces of the puzzle. For starters, the name One M10 has been confirmed, unofficially of course, sending HTC's flagship line into double digits.

For all we know, the HTC One M10 will be announced on April 11, and while all of the above looks believable, we'd hold off on buying decisions until it's official. Via (in...
