HTC Reveals World's First GSM/WiMAX Handset

13 Nov, 2008, 11:55 am IST | by Shayne Rana | Smartphones

It seems like HTC was not content with being the first to introduce a handset with the Android OS (G1) or a full touch screen handset with a WVGA resolution in their HTC Touch HD. They apparently are looking to be a very dominant company when it comes to setting a bar. Their latest is the worlds first handset to incorporate an integration of GSM and WiMAX technology in a single handset called the HTC MAX 4G for the Russian provider of Mobile WiMAX Scartel (brand Yota).


With its 3.8 inch, 800×480 pixel resolution display and 8 Gigs of internal memory running on a Windows Mobile 6.1 OS, the handset will give users a lot more than they bargained for. Other features include TV out capability, VoIP, a 3.5mm earphone socket for the handsfree and of course HTC’s TouchFLO 3D UI.


As of now it’s going to be out only in Russia considering their WiMAX capabilities so it just might be a while before it gets here. In the meantime there’s plenty more we can expect from the company like the HTC HD Touch PRO and more importantly the G1.
