HTC Explorer Early Specs Aka
Htc Pico
21 Sep 11
Another leaked phone from
htc comes the HTC Explorer (pico)
The explorer comes in at
the budget end of htc's lineup of phones but does that make it a
undesirable phone lacking in modern handset features?
Lets take a look
The explorer is made of a
rubber body which makes it more resistant the everyday bumps and drops,
hence the name explorer. This doesn't mean you should put the handset to
the test by hitting it 40 yards with your nine iron, don't think htc's
warranty covers that one.
only confirmed specs so far
- Will be running
Android Gingerbread
- HTC Sense UI
- 600MHz processor
- The touchscreen is
3.2-inches
- 5-megapixel camera
- data control app
As ive already said its
one of htc's affordable mobile phone handsets. Many upper and mid priced
phones sport a dual core processor, The htc explorers 600mhz processor
isn't a shock to me as it isn't an expensive handset.
The 5 megapixel camera is
standard on most lower and mid range phones, therefore its no surprise
the explorer has this technologically dated camera going on. That's
not to say you cant get some amazing shots of a 5mp camera, we will
have to wait and see how the camera performs once its released.
Now here's a handy
feature, a data control cap. What's that i hear you ask? Its something
many phones out there should come with standard but dont. Its an
application built in that allows you to set a limit on how much
internet you use on the explorer, so you wont over spend on your
credit of plan.
3.2 inch touch screens are fading out as the standard size when it
comes to touch UI phones. Don't expect a whopping amount of screen
space going on there.
In Summery
At the end of the day the
htc explorer is designed with people in mind who are clumsy, work
labor jobs or anything other that involves your poor phone taking a
bump, dint, drop or scratch. If this sounds like you and you don't
expect your phone to cook and wash your dishes then keep an eye out
for it in the UK from November onwards in black or blue.
HTC will hold an event in
London on 6 October, you will most likely hear more on the explorer
then
