A leaked promotional video has revealed a trove of new details about the upcoming HTC 10 smartphone.

Although it's more of a flashy reveal video than a detailed rundown of all the phone's specs, it's confirmed a few rumours which have been flying around for months.

The HTC 10 isn't the most highly-anticipated phone out there, but it looks like an interesting device - here's everything we know so far.

It has a USB-C port

Judging by the leaked video, the HTC 10 will be fitted with a USB-C port, the latest standard in USB technology.

As well as offering smarter charging and faster data transfer, USB-C connectors are reversible, meaning you don't have to flip them round five times while trying to plug them in.

It looks pretty good

The video shows off the HTC 10's chamfered edges, which give it a nice clean look and should make the phone feel secure in your hand.

A single hardware button at the bottom of the phone sets it apart from last year's HTC M9 and makes it look a little more conventional, although there's nothing to complain about when it comes to the simple, classic design.

Camera bump-haters might want to give this one a miss, though - the video shows the rear camera sensor sticking out a little bit.

It'll be fairly powerful

Rumoured specs suggest the HTC 10 will have a Snapdragon 820 chipset and 4GB of RAM - just like Samsung's snappy Galaxy S7.

Previous leaks have also suggested it'll have a hefty 3,000mAh battery, so it looks like users won't be complaining about performance.

We'll know more on 12 April

The HTC 10 is set to be unveiled in a livestream which begins at 1PM GMT on Tuesday 12 April.

We'll be able to confirm all the details after the launch.
