The HTC EVO 4G has been announced today. The new EVO was formally known as the HTC Supersonic that we have mentioned a few times in the past.

The phone will be launched on to Sprint’s 4G WiMAX network and has some impressive specs. To start off with it has a huge 4.3 inch TFT screen that is capable of showing 480 x 800 pixels. The processor inside is a Snapdragon running at 1GHz. From looking at the specifications and the device it’s self, it looks to be the HTC HD2 Android equivalent.

Other features include 1GB of memory and 512MB of RAM allowing for more applications to be stored. The device is capable of 720p video, has a front facing 1.3 megapixel camera and also has a camera on the back that has an 8 megapixel sensor. [Read more…]

As well as T-Mobile getting ready to launch the HTC Desire on their network in the UK this week, they also have uploaded pricing for the Sony Ericsson X10 also giving the phone away for free for those who sign up for a 24 month contract paying £35/month. For the £35/month you get 900 minutes of calls and 500 text messages as well as the “unlimited” 1GB data plan.

The cheapest monthly cost you can get the phone for is just £10/month although at that price you’ll need to pay £226 for the handset and you’ll also be locked in for 24 months as well. [Read more…]

If you are after a HTC Desire in the UK and the T-Mobile network works well for you then for £35/month you can pick up the handset for free. T-Mobile confirm on the site that shipping will take up to 7 days which aligns closely with when Amazon are shipping the SIM free variant of the phone.

Another good deal that T-Mobile has is a 24 month contract at £15/month where you can purchase the phone for £129 which isn’t a bad deal at all. With the £15/month price plan you get 300 minutes, 300 texts and the usual unlimited (limited to 1GB) internet connectivity although from my experience with T-Mobile I’ve only got close to the limit once in the last 3 years.

We just mentioned the HTC Supersonic being potentially officially announced next week and now we are also hearing that the HTC Incredible is getting ready for launch on to the Verizon (NYSE:VZ) network.

It is expected that the HTC Incredible will be landing on the network in the next two weeks. The information is said to have come from sources within Verizon, although we always prefer to wait for the official announcement of things like this.

The HTC Incredible when launched is said to have 512MB of DRAM along with a Snapdragon processor that has been downclocked from 1GHz to 768MHz (possible to save battery power). The battery it’s self has a capacity of 1,300mAh. An 8 megapixel camera can also be found on the back of the device. [Read more…]

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. [Read more…]

There seems to be a few HTC rumours around this week with the latest one being that HTC are working on the HTC Touch Pro3 with a tentative launch date of this summer.

The rumoured information comes from the XDA Developers forums where the information says the device will be smaller and slimmer than the Touch Pro2 (pictured above).

Other than that there is no other information other than it could possibly run Windows Phone 7 Series (assuming it meets the criteria). [Read more…]

It appears that the Google Nexus One might actually be a sales failure looking at the chart above (larger version below). It is estimated that just 135,000 devices have been shipped in the first 74 days. Compare that to the likes of the Motorola DROID and the iPhone which hit around the 1 million mark things look quite bad for the Nexus One.

The amount of days (74) was decided on because of Apple [AAPL] first announcing that in those opening days of the iPhone going on sale they shifted 1 million units in that time. The other two figures are actually calculated on using stats from a company called Flurry who track app’s installed on devices (UDID’s). [Read more…]

Just like the Desire, the Legend will start shipping in April with no set date known yet. [Read more…]
