BERLIN — HTC unveiled two new smartphones at the IFA electronics conference in Germany on Thursday, the company’s first devices to run Microsoft’s revamp of the Windows Phone mobile platform, codenamed ‘Mango.’
First, the HTC Radar is a stylish white smartphone made with social networking in mind. Mango’s interface keeps you connected with every friend, contact and follower you have all around the world, with Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn integration.
With a 5-megapixel back-facing camera complete with an f2.2 lens, LED flash and BSI sensor, the Radar lets you shoot wide, bright pictures even in the dark. The Radar has a dedicated camera button, a burst shot function to capture split second moments and a 1-GHz processor to do it as fast as you can imagine.
It’s also got the full range of standard smartphone sensors and connections; GPS, accelerometer, 3G, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity. And, of course, 5.1 surround sound for excellent audio playback.
Composed of an aluminum uni-body design, the Radar weights 137g, is 0.42 inches thick, 4.74 inches long and 2.42 wide.
The second phone, HTC’s Titan, is aptly named. The phone’s screen size measures in at a whopping 4.7-inches, larger than most any smartphone screens we’ve seen. Other specs aren’t exactly outstanding — 512 MB of RAM, 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera — but it’s obvious the Titan’s size is supposed to be the true star of the show.
Release dates and pricing details were not made available.
