Maybe we spoke a little too soon. Fresh off of our report regarding the Vodafone and the HTC Magic AKA the G2, Vodafone just announced the touchscreen only device in their press conference at MWC 09. The first markets to receive the HTC Magic will be the UK (April launch), Spain, Germany, France, and Italy. Also of note, the HTC Magic is going to be a timed exclusive for Vodafone meaning us US users won't be getting first dibs. Sadface.
Anyways, here are the basic specs:
- Qualcomm MSM7201a, 528MHz.
- 512MB ROM, 192MB RAM
- 3.2 inch 320x480 HVGA Screen
- 3.2 megapixel camera (no flash)
- GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth
Size specs:
- 4.45 x 2.17 x .54 (comparable to the G1, a wee bit smaller)
- 4.18 ounces
And finally, the more interesting specs:
- No physical keyboard
- 1340 mAh battery
- ExtUSB (argh!)
- Compass Mode
- Comes in White/Black
In all, this looks great! But why no US love? What do you guys think about the HTC Magic?
