Desire HD getting 15 September unveiling?


13 Aug 2010

The long-awaited HTC Desire HD handset may be getting its official debut on 15 September if an invite to UK journalists from HTC HQ is anything to go by.

HTC has sent out an invite to come see what the handset manufacturer has “dreamt up”, complete with whirling, smoky effects.

Now, this could be for the long-rumoured HTC Vision, a handset with a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, as the invite does make vague reference to visions.

But the likely bet should be on the HTC Desire HD because this phone is already in circulation amongst those in the know and is rumoured to be going on sale in Ireland and the UK sometime in September, but this has yet to be officially announced.

Let’s have a look at the expected specs of both of these handsets:

HTC Vision

  • Android
  • Touchscreen
  • Slide-out QWERTY keypad
  • 3.7-inch WVGA screen
  • 1GHz processor

HTC Desire HD

  • Android
  • All touch interface
  • 4.3-inch screen
  • 1GHz processor
  • HD video playback
  • 8.0-megapixel camera
  • Aluminium unibody enclosure
