Here at CES 2011, we were able to spend some quality time using the new smart phone HTC shake for Verizon. Updated mobile phone, launched today at CES, has lots of advanced hardware and access to Verizon blisteringly fast 4 G LTE network. Powered by 1 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8655 modern CPU, device feels very flexible.
Phone running Android 2.2, which is not the latest version of the operating system. HTC but cover the zipper with the latest incarnation of its user interface HTC sense. Graced with big 4.3 inch display, the phone felt a bit heavy on the side (5.8 oz), similar to the Evo 4 G and is HD2. Apparently all that glass and LTE radio add weight. Still WVGA display looked crisp and pleasing to the eye. We also dig the kickstand on the back, and who isn't. Also cool is how stand covers speaker Grill.
Unfortunately have not yet activated your new feature video on Skype. Just for kicks, although we ran a small test speed, to how much data we could squeeze out of your phone. We measured 3.7Mbps down and 3.8 Mbps, not so bad. Of course we can't wait to shake the HTC to review to see what it can really do. Check back soon since we expect to get our hands on group as soon as possible.
