HTC hopes the growing selfie trend tendency will help it engineer a turnaround.
Last year, HTC fell out of the world's top 10 smartphone brands amid branding weakness and strong competition from Samsung.
According to chief financial officer Chialin Chang, the new product will help it return to sales growth in coming quarters.
