HTC announces new smartphone, confirms Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0 update next year.
What’s the point of releasing a new Android device without the latest and greatest operating system? Well, HTC has promised its customers that the Android 4.0 or the Ice Cream Sandwich operating system will hit its new product that will debut this month, the HTC Rezound with Beats Audio media technology.
In a statement sent to PopHerald, HTC has confirmed the Android Ice Cream Sandwich operating system upgrade for the brand new HTC Rezound, and the update “will available in early 2012,” similar to Motorola’s promise for the new Droid Razr, also a Verizon Wireless Android LTE smartphone.
Plus, a source who requested anonymity is claiming that HTC may implement a “no hard-skinning” for HTC Rezound’s Ice Cream Sandwich OS. For Android fans, the HTC Rezound was the long-rumored HTC Vigor smartphone.
Apparently, a very popular Android device will debut this month in USA, packed with pure Google Android Ice Cream Sandwich, the Samsung Google Galaxy Nexus — and it looks like HTC wants to take advantage of the operating system’s clean, more intuitive and fast user interface.
The phone sports a 4.3-inch full HD screen with 1280 x 720 resolution, dual-core 1.5GHz Qualcomm processor, 1GB DDR2 RAM, 16GB of on-board storage with free 16GB MicroSD card pre-installed, 1620mAh battery, 8-megapixel camera with f/2.2 28mm lens and dual LED flash and with 1080p video support, 2-megapixel front-facing camera for video chat and “self-portrait,” and Android Gingerbread 2.3.5 with HTC Sense and will be upgraded to Android 4.0 ICS early next year.
HTC will include a Beats Audio earbuds, and it will be compatible with the phone’s built-in Beats Audio sound technology that will automatically detect the buds if installed. Peter Chou, HTC’s CEO said in a statement that the new Rezound smartphone is the product of his company’s dedication to “offer the latest in sight and sound innovation,” adding that the new HTC Rezound “enables customers to enjoy their favorite music and entertainment on-the-go like never before” courtesy of Verizon’s LTE and the Beats Audio brand.
The new HTC Rezound, a Verizon Wireless Long Term Evolution Android smartphone, will hit the market on November 14th, 2011 sporting the tag price of $299.99 with a new two-year customer agreement. According to Verizon, customers will need to subscribe the carrier’s Talk plan beginning at $39.99/monthly, aside from the data plan starting at $30/month for 2GB.
Rumors say the new Samsung Google Galaxy Nexus (Verizon variant) will hit stores this month, after the launch of the Droid Razr and the HTC Rezound. HTC’s statement regarding the HTC Rezound’s ICS upgrade is a good news, but has been quite predictable as well because it’s very obvious that the new Android version is more polished, and more intuitive and productive than HTC’s Sense skin.
