We’ve just got our hands on the press release as revealed by T-Mobile that contains all the information we’ve gotta have before we know how much cash we’re going to have to drop down on the HTC Sensation 4G. This press release lets us know that the device will be out “by June 15th,” this POSSIBLY dashing hopes that the device will be announced on June 8th, but not completely – announcements, releases, and presentations are all different of course.
This device will launch here in the USA with Android 2.3 (the latest, they say,) a 4.3-inch qHD display, and what T-Mobile notes as being 4G speeds. Of course this device is also rolling out with the thus far fabulously impressive 1.2GHz dual-core Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ processor. Would you like to see this device as it stands in the UK thus far? Have a look at our review courtesy of our main England homie Chris Davies.
Or perhaps you’d like to see the device in action versus the Samsung Galaxy S II? You can also see now, thanks to this press release, the fact that several new elements will be in place on this device including HTC Watch for movie rentals, HTC Listen for the same situation but with music, T-Mobile TV for free and pay content in live-tv format, Qik for video chat, and everyone’s favorite radio app Slacker Radio.
Another bonus note you may want to pay attention to is thus: “The HTC Sensation 4G is also expected to be available as early as June 12 at select Wal-Mart locations.” For real! Check out the rest of the press release below:
