After HTC this week unveiled the HTC First, a 4.3-inch Android phone with Facebook Home built-in, rumors are emerging that the Taiwanese device-maker is prepping a version of the phone that doesn't have Facebook Home but has the HTC One's highly touted Ultrapixel camera. The purported handset, the HTC M4, relies on a Snapdragon 400 1.2 GHz dual core CPU, a 4.3-inch 720p display and a HTC Ultrapixel camera, according to the latest rumors. If rumors end up correct, the HTC M4 is an alternative for consumers who are not enticed by the HTC First's deep Facebook integration and those opting for a lower-end and cheaper version of the HTC One that's still able to take great pictures in low light.

Luckily, the device will probably fall into the sub-$100 range when made available.- Blake Stimac, Into Mobile
