I was excited to see the first HTC Smartphone with Beats by Dr. Dre thinking that it would be awesome. But upon reading the specifications of it on GSM Arena, I’m a bit disappointed with it as it lacks the power and speed to compete with the competition’s flagship devices.
The phone is known as the “Runnymede”, here’s the specifications:
• 4.7-inch, 800x480 display
• 1.5GHz single-core Qualcomm MSM8255
• 768MB RAM, 16GB internal storage
• 8 megapixel rear camera with LED flash, backlit sensor
• 720p video recording at 60fps
• 1.3 megapixel front camera
• DLNA
• Less than 10mm thick
• Android 2.3.4, Sense 3.5
• Bundled Beats by Dr. Dre headphones
• 1.3 megapixel front camera
• DLNA
• Less than 10mm thick
• Android 2.3.4, Sense 3.5
• Bundled Beats by Dr. Dre headphones
Another thing that I don’t like with the specs is the 4.7” display. 4.3” is enough, like most of their flagship models, but anything larger than that is already a tablet. I was also expecting it to be a dual core device and have a larger RAM. I guess it is targeted for teens and audiophiles that would not care less if it is a dual core or not. The Runnymede is expected to be released on December this year.
