HTC Smartphones – HTC Legend to Take Over Mantel from HTC Hero

HTC Smartphones Legend to Take Over Mantel from Hero – With pushing hard to encourage its portfolio into the mainstream area of the market, the sleek, curvy design of the Legend will turn more than a few heads.

The lightweight aluminium shell of the handset creates a design and feels reminiscent to that of the Apple MacBook Pro. However, there are still remnants of the successful HTC Hero design, with the unforgettable ‘chin’ still present.

As the is integrated with the latest Android 2.1 software, the Legend is fully controllable via voice, supports multi-touch usage and its upgrade of RAM from 288MB to 384MB will enable users to use a significant number of applications simultaneously.

The multi-touch option allows users to navigate and switch between home-screens, as well as inviting swift and clinical use for e-mail and web pages, with the ability to zoom in and zoom out on images and text alike.

Perhaps the most innovative addition to the Sense interface is the brand new Friendstream application, bringing together all forms of social media, including Facebook, Twitter, MySpace and additional contacts to allow users to keep their finger on the pulse socially – a news feed of status updates across all platforms can be accessed at the touch of a button.

With the Legend in line for release on the UK market at the beginning of Q2, the Legend could truly become a figurehead for mainstream HTC smartphones.
