If the current crop of Gingerbread packed Android handsets aren’t doing it for you, come later this fall/holiday season HTC may just deliver. The new mystery device — “Runnymede” — will feature several high-end features such as a larger 480 x 800 4.7″ display and single-core MSM8255 processor running at 1.5 GHz. Other notable bullet points include 768 MB of RAM, 16 GB of user accessible storage, an 8-megapixel camera with 720p video capture support + 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera, HTC Sense UI 3.5, DLNA and apparently bundled Beats headphones.
There isn’t any stand out feature that hasn’t already been upstaged by several other Android handsets on the market, however, there are a few gems worth mentioning.
The camera in particular is said to feature a backlit sensor which in laymen’s terms means better quality pictures. The lens is reportedly a wider angle 28mm offering with a f/2.2 focal ratio. (For comparison’s sake, the iPhone 4 uses f/2.8.)
As touched on before, look for the Runnymede to hit the market in time for the holiday season.
