Called the A101, it comes with a Unisoc SoC and no 5G. Also interestingly enough this seems to be only sold in Russia and South Africa soon.

My thoughts

Very out of the blue for HTC to just randomly start selling low end tablets when their recent focuses have been about Web3. Also just as interesting to see HTC using Unisoc processors which is more often seen in knockoffs.

Not gonna lie I'm very sure this is a rebranded product manufactured by a different OEM. Besides the RAM + storage config, battery, and camera setup this strikes me as being just like Ulefone's tablet.
