HTC has announced the launch of the Android-powered HTC Hero in India. The HTC Hero marks the debut of HTC Sense, an intuitive and seamless UI that will be introduced across a portfolio of phones. Featuring beveled edges and an angled bottom, the HTC Hero is equipped with an anti-fingerprint screen coating for improved smudge resistance and a longer lasting, clearer display. The white HTC Hero includes an industry-first, Teflon coating, resulting in an improved, durable white surface. The HTC Hero comes with a special offer exclusively for 100 million Airtel users in India, wherein Airtel customers will get free data download of 100 MB per month for six months. Airtel customers will also be able to avail many utility-based applications such as Portfolio Manager, Hello Tune Manager, Weather Channel, Mobshare, In-mobile search and City Search on the HTC Hero. “The Android-powered HTC Hero further underlines HTC’s commitment to push the boundaries in mobile phone innovation and design. HTC Hero introduces a more natural way for reaching out to the people and accessing important information in a much more easier and hassle-free manner. We are also very pleased to introduce a fully customized user interface called HTC Sense with the HTC Hero,” said Ajay Sharma, Country Head, HTC India. “HTC Sense is a distinct experience created to make HTC phones more engaging, immersive and intuitive and will be integrated across a portfolio of HTC’s phones in the future,” he further added. The HTC Hero comes equipped with access to the Android Market, where users can search and download applications to personalize and customize the phone. With a 3.2-inch HVGA display, the HTC Hero boasts a broad variety of hardware features including a GPS, gravity-sensor, 3.5mm stereo headset jack, a 5 mega-pixel autofocus camera and expandable MicroSD memory. HTC Hero also includes a dedicated Search button that can search through Twitter, locate people in a contact list, find emails in an inbox or search in any other area in Hero. HTC Sense delivers on three basic principles: Make it Mine, Stay Close and Discover the Unexpected. The HTC Hero will be available at an MOP of Rs. 34,600 in Maharashtra and Rs. 31,990 in the rest of the country at all leading authorised HTC resellers across the country. |
