Yesterday following a leaked promotional image, a trio of promotional videos made their way online which basically showed off the upcoming HTC One M9 in all of its glory. The authenticity of those videos were questioned and if you were just as skeptical, it seems that you might not need to be as Leigh Momii, the former product manager for HTC, confirmed that those videos were real.
According to her tweet, Momii wrote, “the whole cat is out of the bag…no surprise there…i’ll probably get the gunmetal/black m9 :)” Given her former position, we can only imagine that Momii probably has some idea of what’s going on, or at least be experienced enough to make an educated deduction. However a tweet by HTC’s Jeff Gordon has us wondering if this could be part of HTC’s ongoing efforts to throw us off their scent.
According to Gordon, “The best parts of HTC’s March 1st launch event are the parts you have NO IDEA are coming.” Prior to this, there was a report in which it was suggested that HTC could have been putting out fake images in a bid to distract us from the actual product which is due for an announcement this coming Sunday.
While faking images is one thing, it is another to put together elaborate fake videos which we guess we would have to commend HTC on their efforts. That being said, the videos have since been taken down, but if you’re really curious about what HTC has to offer, remember to check back with us on the 1st of March for the details.
