HTC has again surprised us with some already leaked devices yet revealing some great features. The three new phones announced today were the legendary HTC Legend, HTC Desire and HTC HD mini which is a scaled down version of the HTC HD2. HTC LEGEND HTC DESIRE HTC HD2 MINI And for your convenience we have rounded up everything HTC said today.
The Legend is the one we cant stop touching. Its carved out of a single block of aluminium and runs Android 2.1 with the new HTC Sense on a 600MHz processor. If you were wondering about the trackball, its gone, and you get an optical joystick instead. The 3.2 inch display is AMOLED and theres a 5 megapixel camera with flash. Vodafone gets it in Europe in April.
The Desire is the big one. 3.7 inch WVGA AMOLED, 1GHz Snapdragon, Android 2.1 with Sense, early Q2 across Europe and Asia. Sense has two new tricks. Leap lets you pinch and see all seven homescreens at once, and Friend Stream pulls Facebook, Twitter and Flickr into one feed and posts your status to Facebook and Twitter in one go.
The HD mini is the HD2 shrunk to a 3.2 inch HVGA screen, still Windows Mobile 6.5.3 with Sense, and pop the back off and the inner casing is bright yellow!! Europe and Asia in April. Hands on coming, so stay tuned.
