HTC have today officially announced the HTC Smart. Codenamed Rome, the HTC Smart is an entry level device suitable for those who want a conveniently small but user friendly device.
Running the HTC Brew mobile platform, the interface is one that has been designed by HTC. Using TouchFLO technology, the interface appears very similar to that of those found on the high end devices such as the HTC HD2.
A leightweight device at just 108g, the Smart has a 2.8" QVGA display and HSDPA connectivity.
A 3 megapixel camera is included as is a 3.5mm audio jack.
A microSD slot and Bluetooth connectivity is also included, but there is NO GPS or WiFi which will come as a disappointment for some.
A great entry level handset, the HTC Smart is designed to bring stylish communication to the masses and pick up some low end mobile phone business.
