HTC J butterfly promo video is out, shows off the 1080p screen

The promo video for the freshly announced, Full HD display-packing HTC J butterfly has been released. Naturally, the short video clip is focused on the handset’s design and hardware highlights, with the 5″ 1080p getting the most attention.

It is needless to say that we are quite jealous that this monster of a smartphone is exclusive for the Japanese carrier AU/KDDI for the time being. We are however, more than certain that we will see its brand new, stunning Super LCD3 display, as well as its new internals make their way to more HTC devices in the nearest future.

Here goes the video itself.

HTC Desire X stars in a promo video, tells us all about its cool features

HTC recently announced a budget dual-core Android phone – the HTC Desire X. A new promo video for the phone tries to highlight its strong suits. Just like its big siblings, the Desire X packs Beats Audio and a 5MP camera with a BSI sensor, F/2.0 aperture and ImageChip for burst shooting.

Hop after the break, to see what else HTC thinks the Desire X has going for it.

The video touts the HTC Desire X dual-core processor – and indeed that’s one of the best bits of the device’s specs sheet. The HTC Desire X uses a Snapdragon S4 Play chipset, which unfortunately is pretty far from its Krait-based S4 companions. The phone has a MSM8225 chipset with two Cortex-A5 cores at 1GHz, 768MB of RAM and Adreno 203 graphics.

The video also mentions the screen – the 4″ WVGA Super LCD screen – and the Beats Audio integration. By the way, the Desire X also supports Apt-X for it’s Bluetooth audio streaming.
