HTC has introduced an enhanced HTC Sense that will be available on two new Android smartphones - HTC Legend and HTC Desire. “At its essence, the mobile phone is the most personal item you have in your possession. HTC Sense was created to magnify your ability to create and define your own unique mobile experience,” said Peter Chou, chief executive officer of HTC Corporation. “HTC Legend and HTC Desire take Android to another level in both substance, with HTC Sense, and style, with HTC Legend’s revolutionary crafted aluminum unibody design.” The HTC Legend is made from a single aluminum block. It includes a stunning 3.2 inch, AMOLED HVGA display, optical joystick, is powered by a 600 MHz processor, has 384 MB of RAM and 512 MB of ROM, microSD card slot, a built-in GPS receiver and support for HSPA, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and 5 MP camera. The HTC Desire is designed with a 3.7 inch AMOLED WVGA display, is powered by a one gigahertz Snapdragon processor and is Adobe Flash 10.1 ready. It too includes an optical joystick, microSD cardslot, 5 MP camera, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. The HTC Sense is a user experience focused on putting people at the centre by making phones work in a more simple and natural way. This experience revolves around three principles that were developed by observing and listening to how people live and communicate. These core tenets of Make It Mine, Stay Close and Discover the Unexpected continue to be the key to the new HTC Sense experience. The new HTC Sense has a new HTC application and widget called HTC Friend Stream that seamlessly aggregates all social communication including Facebook, Twitter, and Flickr into one organised flow of updates. This aggregation makes it easier to focus on what friends are doing as well as to view the images and links that they share. In addition to Friend Stream, people can be organised into specific social circles, such as groups of friends, colleagues or any other way that makes sense. The new HTC Sense experience also introduces broad improvements to applications including the browser, email client and others. In addition, the new version of HTC Sense includes a new newsreader application and widget, as well as a new seven-screen ‘Leap’ thumbnail view for quick and easy access to specific screens. The HTC Legend will be available in Europe through Vodafone and in the direct channel beginning in April. It will roll out to other parts of the world including Asia in early Q2. HTC Desire will be broadly available to customers across major European and Asian markets in early Q2. The enhanced HTC Sense experience will also be offered as a free upgrade on the HTC Hero in Europe and Asia. Pricing remains unknown. |
