HTC unveils their latest Google Android device, calls the HTC Hero.
It’s main highlight is the new user interface called HTC Sense.
You’ll be able to get your hands on these baby this July for EU nations and later this summer for those in Asia.
While North American, can get a different “distinct” version shipped later in 2009.
HTC Hero design is earmarked by its signature curve at the bottom.
The dimension is a slim 4.4 inches tall by 2.2 inches wide and 0.5 inch thick.
Enjoy the 3.2-inch HVGA touch screen with an antifingerprint screen coating, but what will impress you most is the new Sense UI.
Users can now customize the device to their needs via widgets, customized profiles, and consolidated views.
The smartphone also comes with the usual GPS, a digital compass, gravity sensor, a 5-megapixel camera, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a microSD expansion slot stuff.
Looks impressive, I can’t wait to dabble with this Hero!
