Japanese telecom carrier KDDI launches the new HTC J Butterfly in Japan. HTC also opted to give up on its BoomSound speakers to make it waterproof, so the company is giving a free JBL in-ear headset along with the package. But with the availability of its lineup locally there’s a big chance we’ll be seeing this new Butterfly emerge out of its cocoon in no time. Going official in Taiwan, the HTC Butterfly S bests the company's flagship, the HTC One. BoomSound, UltraPixel, Zoe, Sense 5.0 and all things found on the HTC One will also be found here running on top of a version of Android Jellybean. The HTC Butterfly was one of the first phones to pack a 1080p display, and now we might be seeing an update to it - the HTC Butterfly S. Not much is known about the device as of the moment, but as you can see in the leaks above, it features a very similar design to the original Butterfly, only packing another set of speakers at the bottom - which probably hints at the HTC BoomSound feature. Now that we've reviewed and thoroughly used the HTC Butterfly and the HTC One X+, we're somewhat torn between which of the two we will be using on a daily basis.
