HTC Bliss and Runnymede Specs Leak, Plus Bliss Press Photo

Labels: , , ,


Although they're both not official yet, the specs for the HTC Bliss and the HTC Runnymede have reportedly leaked. The Bliss is said to feature a 3.7-inch Super LCD WVGA display, a 5MP AF camera, Bluetooth 3.0 / WiFi n support, a front-facing camera, a charm indicator (!), and the Android OS with the Sense 3.5 UI.

The Runnymede, on the other hand, is pretty much the WP7 Titan, but it's packing the Android OS. That means you'll find a 4.7-inch WVGA display, a single-core 1.5GHz CPU, an 8MP camera with a dual-LED flash, a front-facing camera, 16GB (possibly also a 32GB model) of storage, and a 9.9mm thin body. This one could be coming in a few different models since some of them might come bundled with some Beats headphones.

Update: The photo you see above is coming from HTC Inside which is the first press shot of the HTC Bliss which may become the "Rhyme" when it gets released.

Git Media Announces Two 10-Inch Android Tablets

Labels: , ,


Git Media - whoever that is - has just unveiled two 10-inch "Honeycomb" tablets. The price for these two are pegged for $479.99 USD, while the specs for both tablets are pretty much the same except for the CPU. The Git Surge is said to house a Tegra 2 CPU, while the Git Pro is packing a 1GHz dual-core Exynos CPU.

Like I said, both tablets pack the same spec sheet so you'll find a 10.1-inch display with a 1,280 x 768 resolution, a 250GB HDD, 1GB of RAM, a 2MP front-facing camera, a 5MP camera, WiFi / GPS / Bluetooth support, a 3.5mm headphone jack, a microSD card slot, and miniUSB / USB ports. That's a lot of storage, but the boot up time may be a bit slow since it's not an SSD.
