Half a decade ago, Samsung's main smartphone rivals were HTC and LG. However, now these brands can only remember how they used to warm to the Korean giant, the latter even closed its smartphone division a year ago. However, HTC is not giving up and is preparing to return to the "big league", at least according to new reports from Taiwan.

According to the local website DigiTimes, which cites the SamMobile server, HTC plans to introduce a new flagship after almost four years. It is to be closely linked with its virtual and augmented reality devices and become part of its metaverse portfolio. If you don't know, the HTC Vive is one of the best-selling VR headsets in the world.

Not much else is known about the new smartphone from the Taiwanese manufacturer at the moment. Since it is supposed to work with VR and AR headsets, we can expect it to be powered by the flagship chipset. Perhaps we will also see a powerful photo set, a high-quality display or the latest Androidu. That, however, it could become a serious competitor for the series Galaxy S22 or the flagships of other smartphone giants, is not very likely, because HTC already sold most of its mobile division to Google a few years ago.
