Apparently there's something big brewing over in Taiwan as news of the super-sized handset going by the moniker HTC One Max begins to make its way onto the web.

After the success of the HTC One the Taiwanese firm is probably feeling pretty bullish about its chances going forward and it's no surprise that rumours have begun to crop up suggesting it's looking at a One mini and a phablet device codenamed T6.

Update: Leaked documents claiming to be from O2 Germany have provided more fuel for the HTC One Max fire as it appeared alongside the HTC One Mini in a list of products.

• Opinion: Why HTC shouldn't make the T6 phablet

We've sifted through all the HTC One Max/HTC T6 talk to bring you a definitive run down of what you might be able to expect from HTC's monster mobile.

HTC One Max release date and price

HTC currently doesn't have any events planned for this year, but that hasn't stopped speculation on a possible HTC One Max release date.

At the moment reports point towards a release towards the end of this year, so the One Max might be one for the Christmas list.

Pricing is equally as unknown for now, but expect to shell out the big bucks for this larger than life handset.

Growing pains

The main attraction on the HTC One Max will be its display which is apparently shaping up to be a mammoth 5.9-inch, full HD affair.

This would dwarf the 5.5-inch, 720p Samsung Galaxy Note 2, but with rumour of a Galaxy Note 3 on the horizon the One Max may find itself matching Samsung's next phablet when it comes to screen size.

Original reports suggested HTC would only give the T6 a modest screen bump, upping if from 4.7- to 5-inches from the HTC One - although those rumours seem to have been laid to rest now.

Anyone for Key Lime Pie?

One of the big surprises with the much talked about HTC One Max surrounds the operating system it'll be running.

According to details leaked by The Unlockr the One Max won't sport Android 4.2 Jelly Bean, nor version 4.3 of the software. Instead it will apparently rock up flaunting Google's next generation of mobile platform, affectionately known as Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie.

Key Lime Pie hasn't even been announced yet so if it is to appear in the HTC T6 then Google's going to have to get a shift on - unless it decides to team up with the Taiwanese manufacturer for a joint launch. Tasty!

Double take

Usually with key phone launches a whole platter of images claiming to depict the handset in question are leaked online, although when it comes to the One Max we've only had one so far in the form of a blueprint.

If the picture does indeed show the HTC One Max then fans of the HTC One will be pleased to learn that it won't really deviate from the flagship's design language.

From the rear, the One Max (or HTC T6 if you want to use the codename) appears to be identical to the handset it's based on.

On the front only minor cosmetic changes show up, with additional width to accommodate the larger display and a shift of the sensors at the top of the device from the left to right side of the upper speaker grille.

Spec me up Scotty

In terms of other specifications for the HTC One Max we only really have The Unlockr report to go on, but it's worth noting the details came via @evleaks, which has a pretty decent track record when it comes to uncovering handsets.

Apparently the One Max will feature a 2.3GHz quad-core processor, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage, 2.1MP front camera, UltraPixel rear camera and a sizable 3300mAh battery.

Now those are some pretty tasty specs and it will certainly give the competition a run for its money - but we're going to have to wait and see if they are accurate.

Nokia's July 11 event draws ever nearer, promising to bring the Nokia 1020 (previously known as the Eos) to our fingers, but as these things tend to go, we might have just been given our early preview.

Serial leaker @evleaks previously claimed that the new flagship would be named the Nokia Lumia 1020, and now the mysterious tipster has tweeted a picture to offer alongside that claim.

From what we can see, the phone has taken its design cues from the Lumia 920. However we can't see the rear of the handset, which is where the the real magic will be happening.

The 1020 is rumoured to be arriving with a not-so-modest 41-megapixel PureView camera and will succeed the Nokia 808 PureView.

Focus carefully

On closer inspection, you'll notice the Nokia Pro Cam tile on the screen, an app that's been rumoured to be on the handset.

The image shows the phone on American network AT&T and @evleaks captioned the picture simply, "Nokia Lumia 1020 for AT&T, 2013"

With the new trend of super-snapper phones beginning to take off, including the Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom, can Nokia offer the market a compelling early option? We should find out for sure at Nokia's event next week.

Microsoft has redesigned the mobile version of its note taking app OneNote, saying it wants to give users a more consistent experience across multiple devices.

It has engineered the app to make notes appear the same across all clients and on different platforms, including Windows, Windows Phone, Android and iOS, in addition to introducing new formatting and customisation options.

Microsoft has also added support for notebooks stored on Office 365, SharePoint, and SkyDrive Pro. Additionally, OneNote also now allows groups of people to collaborate on notes in real-time in a similar way to Google's Apps for Business platform.

Widgets

The software giant has added widgets to the Android version that can be edited on the home screen, while the iPad version of the app has gained Microsoft's Office ribbon.

It has also made its OneNote apps for iOS and Android completely free, removing the limitation of 500 notes previously available to users before they had to pay.

We know you were just screaming, "But what about blue??" when leaked photos showing alleged green, yellow and red cheap iPhone models appeared earlier this week.

Calm down, as now comes word (or sight) that Apple may be planning to have a blue budget iPhone join the low-cost trio, as the latest snaps from a Chinese factory seem to indicate.

What appears to be a half-assembled iPhone blue shell has been photographed alongside the three previously leaked of colors and a white version, according to French site Nowhere Else.

With the pigments popping up left and right, we wouldn't be surprised if we soon see a fuchsia, burnt orange and taupe model soon.

More Blips

The colors making you dizzy? Take three blips and call us in the morning.
