Meet the HTC Flyer

Wednesday, February 16th, 2011

It’s no secret that this is the year of the tablet and it was just a matter of time before HTC jumped in the pool. Meet the new HTC Flyer ($TBA). It’s running Android 2.4 with the Sense UI and features a seven-inch touchscreen with 1024×600 resolution, a 1.5 GHz processor, 1GB of RAM, 32 GB of internal storage with microSD expansion…… [catching breath] ……HSPA+/GSM cellular connectivity, a five megapixel rear camera with auto focus, a 1.3 megapixel front camera, GPS, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 3.0 with A2DP. That should be enough to take on the iPad right? I can’t wait to get this!

I also could help but notice that it didn’t have Honeycomb so thats a little sad but it does has Skype video calls. I think this is the gadget Jason has been looking for.

Is it Incredible? Verizon thinks so.

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010

I haven’t geeked out on a new phone in a while so I think we’re about due. Now granted this isn’t the EVO but I think it’s up there. It’s the new HTC Droid Incredible ($200) and it hits Verizon on the April 29th. (You can pre-order it now) I instantly think this is leaps and bounds above the Motorola Droid if for no other reason than that it comes with the Sense UI. This guy is taking some cues from the Nexus One as well, the Incredible offers a 3.7-inch, 480×800 AMOLED capacitive touch screen, a 1GHz Snapdragon processor, Android 2.1 with the HTC Sense UI, an optical joystick, an eight megapixel camera with dual LED flash, and the usual Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.

So is it incredible? That’s for you to decide but I bet it’s better than your current phone.

HTC HD2 is “Coming to America” via T-Mobile

Wednesday, January 6th, 2010

Microsoft and HTC have now finally announced that the HD2 is officially headed to T-Mobile. You can pre-register for this beast with all it’s Windows Mobile 6.5 glory now and it’s expected to arrive in Spring of 2010.

No pricing or specific availability has been mentioned but I’m sure the HD2 won’t be cheap given the high specifications.

AT&T finally gets in the Android game

Wednesday, January 6th, 2010

It’s been a big week for Android with the release of the new Nexus One and it just got a lot more interesting. AT&T announced that it’s launching five new Android devices in the first half of 2010. They will be devices from Motorola, Dell and HTC. They say the Motorola phone is exclusive to them so that counts out Droid so it could be the new Backflip and Dell announced that the Mini 3 is coming to AT&T so we know that one. So that leaves HTC. Could they be some of the devices we saw in their leaked road map? AT&T says they’ll have an “exclusive” device so I’m curious if it really will be or if it will just be something re-shelled like the Hero on Sprint.

So lets hear it AT&T peeps. What do you think?

Check out the full press release after the break.

This is one of those hot off the press/breaking stories things that just gets me excited.

Is HTC bringing Android 2.1 to the Hero?

Monday, November 30th, 2009

hero-android21

After the Droid launched on Verizon running Android 2.0 we were all asking the question, “When will the Hero get the update?” Well HTC promised us an Android 2.0-based firmware for the Hero line once it figured out the nitty gritty details of porting Sense to Googles latest code, leapfrogging Donut altogether — but now, it looks like theyre gonna do one better.

Screenshots found today show a Hero running Android 2.1, which would dovetail nicely with the fact that Google had teased a “minor update” to 2.0 before the end of 2009 back when it announced Eclair last month. The interface looks largely untouched from 1.5, proof that HTC was able to bring Sense up to speed with minimum drama; its unclear when thisll all be available, but considering that Sprints version just got a super-minor update, some carrier-branded versions could be in for a wait.
