Three HTC Ocean phones might take touch controls to the next level

One designer un(?)intentionally teased every HTC fan with a floating, “Ocean” concept phone that had everyone buzzing about buttonless hardware touch controls on the siderails of the phone. Would such a phone with “Sense Touch” UI really come out anytime soon or would it just remain what it was — a concept?

One HTC leaker, LlabTooFeR, has just a few words to that question.

Three Ocean concept phones? Perhaps each will take on different sizes or certain strengths of silicon, but we have no specifics on that end just yet. Just that Ocean Master, Ocean Note and Ocean Smart might be just as how they sound — a main model, a plus-sized phone and a leaner, greener machine.

Who knows? Maybe that HTC 11 isn’t looking too likely now.
