HTC Supersonic Could be Announced Next Week

WSJ are reporting that the HTC Supersonic phone might officially be announced next week on March 24 at a keynote speech by Dan Hesse.

The Supersonic was first leaked a few months ago when some firmware was found to contain a reference to it. Shortly after a report came saying that the phone was going to be running a new Android OS built (Android 3.0). Following that, some renders of the HTC (TPE:2498) Supersonic were found showing it to have a large 4.3 inch screen and finally a video showing the Supersonic a little.

Feature that are rumoured, or believed to be true are that it has a 4.3 inch screen (not AMOLED though). We now hear it will actually run Android 2.1 (not 3.0 like the BGR screen grab showed) and use HTC Sense as the UI.

The phone is said to be the Android equivalent of the HTC HD2.

Lets hope for a good announcement of the smartphone next week where we should hear all the good information about the device. Some good news about it also includes it's ability to connect to 4G networks which might make Sprint happy. If Sprint (NYSE:S) could get themselves a decent phone then it could mean good things for their network.
