Pocketnow's source has taken some photos of not yet officialy announced HTC Incredible. It's packed with Android 2.1 and HTC Sense, Snapdragon processor, 256 MB RAM, 3.5-3.7" WVGA screen (probably AMOLED), optical mouse pointer, and dual LED flash. There are few speculations about the possibility that Incredible is Bravo in reality, over on Phandroid. From the attached video, you can see that the device is really, really fast.

HTC Legend is just about to be unveiled, and Mobile World Congress is just around the corner. In our previous post we had a chance to see a render of the device, and since we do not have the photos yet, here is another render in better quality :) It shows the new aluminium body of the upcoming Android device from HTC as well as the new rocker button for volume with engraved + and – signs. It appears that the function keys will remain in hard form (they better be). The area in the bottom (made from plastic) will be black.

Specifications follow. Optical mouse is to be announced with this model and be implemented on Bravo as well.

The reason ai.rs blog does not do classic unboxing videos lies in the fact that the phones we get are in the test/sample phases, and we get them for couple of hours. Nexus One unboxing you're about to see will knock you out :)

The first 1GHz Snapdragon Android phone is here. Nexus One has been the hot topic of all the technology blogs around the world.

Nexus One

Engadget has the full review here. As far as we European users go, Vodafone has announced that in just a few weeks it will have it in it's offer. It appears that HTC outdid itself, making the most powerful Android smartphone on the market. It looks very similar to the Bravo that we announced a while ago, and it looks like HTC will hold it's breath until the Q2 to roll out the Bravo (probably with new version of Sense). Will there be enough Nexus One models in the stock for all the interested customers ? $530 is just great, with the dollar being so down, can we expect a european Bravo to be under 500€ ?

Can and will you wait for the Bravo or try to get the Nexus One ? Shout in the comments and enjoy the following specs:

  • Processor: 1GHz Snapdragon
  • Display: 3.7" AMOLED WVGA (480x800)
  • Memory: 512MB RAM + 512MB ROM + microSD (4GB, expandable to 32MB)
  • Camera: 5MP AF + LED Flash
  • Android 2.1
  • 1400mAh battery

As we promised, we bring you more info on HTC Legend. In fact, we present you exclusive crystal clear image of the upcoming Android phone from HTC. We suppose it will replace Hero, considering the dimensions, screen size and specs. Besides the AMOLED HVGA screen (16 million colors) it features optical mouse (or should we say optical trackpoint?). Legend will probably be announced in Barcelona (World Mobile Congress 2010) and hit the streets (or mobile operators) in march 2010. It certainly does resemble the Hero, but Legend will have metallic frame and will also feature updated versions of HTC People and Footprints. Let's not forget LED flash, something the Hero really misses, and a 600MHz processor. Green bottom is probably going to change… What do you thing on Legend vs Bravo ? Will you even consider HVGA after WVGA and Bravo appear ?
