Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesLGHTCWildfire SOptimus Slider
Virgin Mobile is introducing two new Android phones to its portfolio and we’re not sure if customers should start getting excited or not. The LG Optimus Slider and the HTC Wildfire S both sit snugly in the mid-range spectrum but also both sit in your standard pricing of a high-end smartphone for any other carrier around.

If you were hanging around here on the 26th of September, you know good and well that T-Mobile will soon be getting a lovely new 4G capable 1.5GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon processor-having HTC device by the name of HTC Amaze.

HTC Holiday visits FCC for AT&T 4G LTE
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesHTCAT&THoliday
The HTC Holiday is expected to be AT&T’s first 4G LTE smartphone and the device has just passed through the FCC, signaling an imminent launch. Earlier this month, the handset was caught being tested on AT&T’s 4G LTE network with speeds reaching 29Mbps, faster than typical Verizon 4G LTE speeds. However, that was without real load on the network, which AT&T only plans to deploy in about 25 markets by year-end.

U.S. Cellular has announced a trio of HTC devices to be launched next month. The Hero S, Wildfire S, and Flyer tablet will be sold for $199.99, $79.99, and $199.99 on contract after rebates, respectively.
The Hero S runs Android 2.3 Gingerbread, has a 4-inch 960 x 540 touchscreen, a 5 megapixel camera on the back, and 1.3 megapixel shooter on the front for video calling. The Wildfire S is a little more modest, clocking in with a 3.2-inch HVGA display, 5 megapixel camera, and 600 MHz processor, but at least it’s cheap. We’ve got a review over here if you want a closer look. Finally, the Flyer tablet measure 7 inches, but still doesn’t run Android Honeycomb, though there are unofficial ROMs av...

HTC Radar 4G visits FCC on its way to T-Mobile
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesHTCT-MobileRadar
HTC Radar 4G, which we see as a mass market Windows Phone 7.5 Mango device, is at the FCC where the government-paid engineers are testing its radiation levels, making sure it’s safe to be used by the general public. Once that process is completed, HTC’s baby will be heading to T-Mobile USA, which we think will sell it for about $100 on a two-year contract.
Specs wise, the Radar 4G comes with a 3.7-inch WVGA touchscreen, single-core 1GHz processor, 5-megapixel camera on the back, front-facing camera (for video calls), HSPA+ (4G) and Wi-Fi connectivity and 8GB of built-in storage. As I said, it’s a solid mid-range by today’s standards (hence mass-market appeal), leaving the premium high-end sp...

HTC Trophy also getting Mango beginning today
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesHTCTrophy
We may be starting to sound like a broken record here, but the HTC Trophy for Verizon is the next on the list of Windows Phone devices to get the Mango update beginning today.
Microsoft has begun rolling the Mango update out to many other devices today such as the HTC Arrive for Sprint and the HTC HD7 for T-Mobile. Their instructions for download are all the same. This is not an over-the-air update that will be pushed directly to your device via the carrier. Verizon will send out a notification, just as T-Mobile and Sprint will be doing, when the Mango update is available for each and every HTC Trophy. As of now the Verizon website has this update listed as “Coming Soon.”
Once the update is ...

HTC EVO Design 4G press photo revealed
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesHTCEVO Design 4G
The yet-to-be announced HTC EVO Design 4G has been called many other things, such as the Hero S and the Kingdom, but now we have an official press photo to go along with the name.
Given its EVO moniker, this smartphone is more than likely heading to Sprint, although another name change could change that. The specifications of this Android 2.3 powered smartphone suggest it is more of a mid-range handset, much like the HTC EVO Shift 4G was. It features a 4-inch qHD display, a single-core 1.2GHz processor and 768MB of RAM.
The EVO Design 4G has two cameras; a 5 megapixel camera is on the back while a front-facing 1.3 megapixel shooter is there to aid in your video chatting needs. It is still a ...
