We had a chance to play with HTC Wildfire, the new smartphone that will be a successor to the model HTC Tattoo. The newest addition to the HTC Android porfolio looks like a mini Desire. As you can see in the following table, it even has a capacitive screen (Tattoo did not). The only drawback is of course the screen, but since the resolution is lower than desire, it does not need a Snapdragon 1GHz processor, and works like a charm.
HTC Wildfire could be a big hit, considering the expected price and mass market audience that could afford it. It packs a new and improved version of HTC Sense, integrating notifications from social networks directly with a contact during a call. It will be available in cool colors as well (gunmetal, black, white, red).
The Wildfire looks cute standing next to Nexus One, maybe an ideal second phone ?
As promised, we presented the very first video review of HTC Leo, the first capacitive Windows Mobile device from HTC. Stylus is gone and 1GHz Snapdragon processor is in. So long 528MHz… Check out the gallery with few more screenshots of the WM 6.5 on this model (developer screens included).
Video is now back online. Expect a new video review tomorrow (11. october 2009).
Uveiling of Windows Mobile 6.5 will give us the opportunity to see wonderful new devices on the market – starting tomorrow. On of the most anticipated is of course HTC Leo, and according to our trusted sources, HTC Leo will be officially announced on www.htc.com tomorrow (6. october 2009.). However, this will not be the launch date for Leo, and we’ll have to wait until the end of october/start of november. That of course doesn’t mean that ai.rs readers will have to wait that long. We will have extensive video review during the following weekend.
As we announced in our previous post, HTC Leo will be a new high end model from HTC and it will feature Snapdragon 1GHz processor and capacitive 4.3" screen. We expect it in our hands in september and it may hit the stores (or mobile operators) as soon as october. We bring you exclusive photos of the upcoming HTC Leo and confirm our previoust post on specs !
