The HTC Ville is pretty well a shoe-in for a MWC debut. Last week we showed you a video walkthrough of the phone, and now all we need to figure out now is what really sets it apart from the previous crop of HTC devices released in 2011.
From the get-go we have a slim 8.9mm profile, HTC’s thinnest phone to date, but the rest of the specs seem decidely last-year, including a 1.5Ghz dual-core MSM8260 Snapdragon processor and a 8MP camera. For a display we have a 4.3″ qHD AMOLED display, much like that of the Motorola RAZR. We’ve also heard that it will be coming to T-Mobile in the US, increasing the likelihood of it arriving at Wind, Mobilicity or Videotron sometime later this year.
What will separate the Ville from the pack is Android 4.0 running Sense 4.0, but that software will be coming to the Sensation, EVO 3D, Amaze and Raider sometime this year. When HTC announces the Ville at its MWC press conference on February 26th, you can be sure they’ll have some tricks up their sleeves — including the quad-core HTC Endeavour.

No hi capacity battery? Fail. Razr Maxx will pwn it.

All of those specs are irrelevant if they don’t also state the battery size.

Telus has a habit of following T-Mobiles higher end HTC phones, a la Amaze 4G.

I like what I see, but I hope the new version of Sense we saw last week isn’t finalized because it’s not looking too great. Excited none the less!

Seems to be just a hspa/gsm version of the rezound.
Although the rezound is thicker, it comes with a 720p screen.
I’d prly pass on this device and wait for htc’s quad core offering that will be meant to compete with the galaxy s3

Why even bother making this? Nothing more to say.

Everyone look away from HTC, maybe they’ll get the message. Oh, wait most everyone has already done that…hmmm

There were leaked specs (rumors though) that had it fitted with a 1650ma battery, so yeah if that turns out to be true then it would be pretty worthless at least to me. Too bad, it’s one beautiful looking phone.
Can’t wait for the phone makes to take battery life seriously like Moro did with the razr maxx, Samsung sounds promising with their assurance that new phones this ear will be better… And at least htc has admitted they’ve been failing in that department. Long lasting droids could dominate the market.
