This morning, Sprint announced two new Android powered devices from HTC: the HTC EVO 3D smartphones and HTC EVO View 4G tablet. Both run Android 2.3 ‘Gingerbread’ and will ship on June 24th.
The HTC EVO 3D is the first smartphone to feature a “’glasses-free’ 3D” screen, a technology currently found only in the Nintendo 3DS. The 3D-capable screen is 4.3-inches.
The new EVO also can record 3D video and take 3D photos thanks to its dual primary cameras. Other features include a dual-core 1.2 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8660 processor, 1GB of RAM, 4GB of onboard storage, Sprint ‘4G’ network support, 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0, a microSDHC memory card slot, aGPS, a 1730mAh battery, and a 1.3MP front-facing camera for video chat.
The EVO View 4G is a new 7-inch Android tablet which, sadly, runs Android 2.3 rather than 3.0 or 3.1. Powered by a Qualcomm 1.5GHz MSM8655 single-core processor, the EVO View 4G should be pretty snappy given its smaller display. Primary features include 30GB of onboard flash storage, 1GB of RAM, 802.11n Wi-Fi, ‘4G’ data connectivity, a 5MP primary camera and 1.3MP front-facing camera, and GPS. You can also add up to 32GB of additional storage by way of its microSDHC card slot.
The EVO 3D will sell for $199 with a two-year contract, while the EVO View 4G tablet will go for $399 with a similar two-year data service agreement.
