Turning the heat on to Google, HTC Corp. today at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona launched its new smart phone that is strikingly similar to Google's Nexus One launched last month.
Desire, as named by HTC, comes with Android 2.1, a 3.7-inch AMOLED touchscreen, 1 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset, a five megapixel camera, FM radio and an optical joystick. The smart piece from HTC also possesses new improved HTC Sense user interface to allow higher social networking capabilities to the user.
Apart from the Desire, HTC also launched two more models; Android 2.1-based HTC Legend and HD Mini run on Windows Mobile 6.5, to enrich its existing portfolio. The company, one of the major smartphone makers in the world today, also revealed its plans to launch Windows 7-based models later this year.
