Japanese carrier KDDI has just announced a new HTC J Butterfly, a handset which resembles the HTC One in specs but with features aimed at its home market. Like a lot of new Sony and other Japanese devices, the 5-inch, full HD handset is waterproof, for starters, in case you feel like taking underwater pics. For that, HTC has a brand new set of cameras for the handset: a 13-megapixel rear model with a selfie-friendly 5-megapixel front shooter. Those specs differ from the One's 4-megapixel Duo "Ultrapixel" camera; KDDI is referring to it instead as a "Duo Effect" camera with features like depth of field adjustment. Filling out the spec sheet are a Snapdragon 801, 802.11ac WiFi, LTE-Advanced, 150Mbps 4g, 2GB of RAM and Android 4.4 KitKat. All of that sounds pretty nice, so the question is, will it come to US shores? Hard to say, but the last J Butterfly model from KDDI did eventually arrive in the US (to Verizon), so we wouldn't be surprised to see the new model here too.
