HTC myTouch 4G Slide Could Prove to Be Fastest Smart Phone Available
Since it’s release, the Samsung Galaxy S2 has been titled the “Fastest Smart Phone Avaiable” with a Quadrant score near 3,053. However, the upcoming release of the HTC myTouch 4G Slide, could give Samsung a run for their money.
The new Samsung Galaxy S2 is loaded with excellent features including the fast 1.2 GHz Orion chipset, but HTC has been repeatedly producing market leaders in the last year. Both the release of the ThunderBolt and Sensation 4G had iPhone users wondering why they were paying twice as much and having to make more of a commitment for the same services, and the release of the myTouch 4G Slide will surely have Galaxy S2 users having similar buyers remorse.
Similar to the Galaxy S2, the myTouch 4G Slide will run off the Android 3.2 or Gingerbread Juice Android operating systems. Although iPhone users swear by Apple’s operating system, Android is unique as it allows smart phone users greater software compatibility and customization. Apple definitely has it down in terms of creating an efficient and easy-to-use system, but in order for it to function correctly users are only allowed Apple programs. This isn’t the case with Android phones.
Aside from the operating system and similar processing speeds, the myTouch 4G Slide doesn’t have much more in common with the Samsung Galaxy S2.
• 1.2GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon processor
• LCD display with 800×480 screen resolution
• 8 MP rear-facing camera
• Front-facing VGA camera
• HTC Sense 3.0
• 1080p HDMI Video Camcorder
The iPhone5 is set to have a camera with dual-LED flash, but currently the HTC camera reigns supreme. Not only is the rear-facing camera 8MP, but it also has other awesome features to truly enhance a photographers picture taking experience. Basic features include:
• Excellent low-light performance
• Clear shot in bright environments
• Zero shutter lag
• Sweepshot for wide panoramic photos
• Capability to snap multiple photos at once
On the myTouch 4G Slide, photo can be easily edited and shared seamlessly. Those interested in the smart phone’s video capabilities can easily do the same and also have the ability to connect their phone to their flat screen at home so that they can host private screenings.
Needless to say, the myTouch 4G Slide is a media lover’s dream, and will definite be tough to beat once on the market. The release of the myTouch 4G Slide also provides further proof that 4G Android phones are no longer interested in competing with Apple as much as they are with competing with themselves which will only benefit current Android users as faster and higher functioning phones will continuing hit the market.
