Both feature a quad-camera set-up on the rear comprised of 48MP wide, 8MP ultra-wide, and 2MP macro and depth lenses: the U20 5G features a 32MP selfie unit and Desire 20 Pro a 25MP.
The U20 5G will come in silver, green, and black; the Desire 20 Pro in black and blue.
In a tweet, CCS Insight chief analyst Ben Wood stated there are plans to launch the 5G model in “some European markets where HTC still has good operator relationships and some brand equity”.

CEO Yves Maitre tweeted the new devices answer questions about “when we’ll get back into phones”.
