  • you can use special stylus on capacitiev touch screen

  • CPU 528 mhz !

  • This HTC 4G Is Not a 3G Comparitable Handset. its Having the Video calling Facility and a Secondry Camera. Then How can It Was not 3G Comparitable. Its With 4G.

  • telstra should own this phone since they are the one who is offering 4G

  • hello guys.i have this mobile phone.yes,it has a stylus,but you can use fingers too.

  • what is the use of Yota TV ? is it work in Mumbai [India] is it available in Mumbai ? What is the price ?

  • Yeah stylus will work with it as its resistive touch technology used here...

  • wen god has given u fingers den y do u want 2 use stylus

  • Can anyone tell me if you can use a stylus on this device or is it purely ur finger? Thanks

  • Currently there is no 4G mobile phone available in the world.Even the 4G standards are yet to establish. But Predecessors of 4G phones such as HTC Evo 4G are branded as "real 4G". you need to wait at least an year to see a real 4G phone in 4G network.

  • i want to buy the HTC MAX4G, but iam liveing in Angola, soi want the information about buying it. What I have to do buy this phone? Thanks

  • well this phone certainly does have an interesting appearance...

  • I think HTC or any other manufacturer should make (touch screen) phones like this. Cut out the unnecessary trims, simple is the best. This perhaps the success of the Apple iphones.

  • ummm.. the phone's name is htc max 4G.... but its not a mobile with 4g network?????... can u guys plz tell me sum phones with 4g network???

  • hieee: I want to buy this phone can aby one help me to solve my paoblem plz help me I'm in Mumbai

  • hey frnds....help me yaar.. is it best model of HTC in its range..? m planning to buy htc near about this muchh price.....do any1 hav any idea abt other model..?

  • It might be worth noting, that this is the old, "4G. Specification", and not, "True 4G.", as it's now known. This 4G. Refers to WiMax. I'm impressed, that 3G. Wasn't included, in this Phone. Shocking!

  • you are 2B

  • u r sayng dt it got 5 mp camera while specs saye 3.15.... n hw much dz it costs nw..????

  • This phone looks just looks like the x10 !!!!!!!!!1

  • ma goodness beautifullllllllll i lv it m gonna buy it smhow.......

  • Since HTC Max4G is a limited edition, i got a copy of it from Shenzen, its just a 2.5G (EDGE) only device with Windows Mobile 6.5.3 +Touchflo UI, 5 megapixel camera and a Samsung 800Mhz processor. All other features/looks are exactly the same...3.8" screen etc

  • 4G is Wimax and it has wimax so it is 4G.the only handset with 4g Capabilities

  • 4G is the 4th Generation mobile internet connection which is also known as WiMax. Up to 10Gbps connection directly from network tower to the device.

  • this is only working 2G. Not working 3G..... MAX 4G THIS is a model nomber, NOT 4G.

  • is it 4g

  • it doesn't have led flashlite......!

  • a good mobile in good coast

  • wat about camera

  • it's an awesome phone

  • Yes, It will work in Bangladesh

  • Can anyone plz tell me whether this phone is workable in Bangladesh(South Asia)? I am gonna buy one from Online Shop soon. Plz tell me.

  • No, actually 802.11 is wifi. WiMax is 802.16. But you're right. This phone supports WiMax for Russia. Spawner is completely wrong... just... wrong.

  • 4g is 4th generation like the iphone 2g and 3g there just a generation of phone and i purely a coincidence its the same as a network

  • @Spawner: LOL 802.11 e IS a mobile version of WiMAX, so it DOES support it :) and it will soon be available in larger metropolitan areas, if not yet

  • sprint has a 4g network. lol

  • LOL 4G Network's not been release yet. and this phone does not support 4G, its just a phones name .. And Globe or TM or smart or TNT surely dont have 4G yet..

  • Microsoft money software can use with this mobile.

  • why not sell this here in Philippines? Globe telecoms has 4G services

  • yes u ll find it in mysore... in mandi , mobile shoppe

  • can i get this phone in india?

  • No - HSDPA is 3.5G. This phone is a 4G phone which works on the superior russian telephone networks. It wont be on sale in europe/USA any time soon.

  • Guys dont be deceived by touchflow3d or wimax ect. it only offers 2g network (duh!) -wimax or 4G(according to them??) is also known as HSDPA,its normal on every phone that offers internet browsing features. . . -full touchflow screen yet only offers 3.15MP camera(is this a JOKE??, wahahahah!)

  • 4G is 4th generation, if u understand the difference between GPRS and 3G. this means 4G is a high speed technology

  • Can you please let me know the price of the handset

  • Yes

  • MTN will Provide WiMax Mobile 802.16e in iran soon.does this phone make connection with that wimax or HTC MAX 4G is suitable only for particular countries?pls answer me

  • wimax is 4g

  • Well for the debate between the touchflo3d and iphone its technology type that allows for you to have quick access links to your favorite items, contacts, widgets, etc (much like the iphone interface), but the difference between a phone that runs on touchflo 3d is that you can change the interface back to the windows mobile interface. iphone... is well... the iphone. An 4g is the next wave of data technology/speeds. it allows for a user to have upto 12mbps on the downlink and something like 7.2 on the uplink (pending where coverage is available). There is currently 2 different technology types that are going to support 4g. There is LTE which is the standard that most wireless companies are going to upgrade to, but there is also wimaxx (which a russian wireless company, and sprint(usa) is going to be using. both allow for same capability, its just a matter to when it launches :)

  • obviosly wimax

  • 4g is wimax man

  • it's cool but what is 4g??

  • it wont be coming to UK i wouldnt have thought, it uses 4G and uk is hardly 3G

  • would any body tell me which one is faster in touchFLO 3d I-PHONE OR WIMAX. THANKS

  • How much GB memory can I buy for this phone? What's the max GB for this phone? Email to me: [email protected]

  • When is this phone out in the UK and which networks will it/is it available on?

  • where to buy this phone,i needed.please confirm,tx

  • You can buy the phone on ebay for about 650$.

  • wi fi avilable this phone

  • Where can I buy this phone!!!

  • if i order it from canada rogers has wimax modems 2g 3g gsm network dose it have a other serial number to activate wimax ?

  • better than 3g..

  • whats that 4g

  • i luv softbank jap fone so awsome

  • htc loves to make 65k color screen phones thats why i hate htc!!!!!

  • As far as I know....this is phone is the pride of Italy. Italia!!!!

  • You are right, Japan is the most advanced in mobile phone technology!

  • well they should make better phones then,should'nt they sucker

  • Why is it that the MAX 4G, which is a YOTA only phone and will never be available anywhere else, makes it to GSMARENA? Other manufacturers like NEC, SHARP and Panasonic also produce 3G/GSM phones but don't ever get mentioned or included on this site. Japanese phones have very impressive specs and should get some attention, even if they are not available to everyone as such.

  • i think this is one of the best phone i hv ever seen for 2 months i've been reading reviews and waiting for it to make its debut in the uk but in vain. They hv just started setting the wimax technology in part of england and its very disappointing for a country that claims can do so much. my gf has the magic n that too is very good phone, it has a 3.1 megapixel camera but if u look at the pictures u wont believe. This phone is in different league completely, this phone is 5 yrs in front of its competitors technology wise.......for people who cant wait fot it to come out in the uk there is an alternative and thats the Samsung Omnia 2, its making its debut at the end of august. it has an 800 Mhz Qualcomm processor which better than the HTC Max 4G at 528Mhz.

  • 2 thick as usual....

  • This might be the best phone ever...even it can be commpered with iPhone 2...so if we vote i'l give 10 4this phone, better than iPhone (2G, 3G, 3GS)& the other one simillary!!! It's awesome phone for this generation

  • i m looking for an mp3 phone with a decent camera will the phone suit me pls tell me.

  • Just read this phone is not quad band :( so I couldn't use it in the States. My search goes on.

  • Joey R I think we get the message :) Is this phone discontinued because it is not on the HTC website: ?

  • Best phone ever!@!@!!!

  • Best phone ever!@!@!!!

  • This might be the best phone ever...even it can be commpered with iPhone 2...so if we vote i'l give 10 4this phone, better than iPhone (2G, 3G, 3GS)& the other one simillary!!! It's awesome phone for this generation

  • What the HELL is this??????????? It's to big 2 be a mobile and can't be anything else

  • 800 euro!!! what does it have that satio dont have? it is very overcost

  • yah no diifrent i a normal phone ya what you think !!!!!!!!!!!

  • Къде го виде бе пич? Where did you saw it dude?

  • Look apple 3g s. I had my iphone doing evrything,

  • Yeah and it costs about 900 Euro!!

  • The phone is now Available in Bulgaria! :)

  • iphone cant even forward a simple text message, no Java, poor camera, poor speaker quality, limited 3rd party apps (sat nav etc...),No Secondary camera, no MMS... A poor excuse for a 3rd gen phone. "Take your Apple Blinkers off" HTC Touch Pro 2 or touch diamond 2... Real Phones

  • hey actually i am planning to buy an iphone please tell me about its performance

  • appearently you don't pay attention the to news...they are taking care of those things in the iphone and really who needs FM radio when you have a mp3 player, and how many times do you really pull your cell out to take a video?

  • iphone has a very nice os and graphics but it lacks fm radio, video recorder,and so it can't be the best phone

  • Hows going to put it out first. Thats is the real question

  • The Iphone 3G is still the best phone

  • this phone's text is in russian(i can read it) it was releases in russia and i dont know when it will be released in us but probably soon

  • Please don't call WiMAX 4G, coz it isn't nowhere near LTE!!!

  • People, don't get too hyped about this. LTE >>> WiMAX WiMAX is pre-4G, while LTE is the true 4G. Also, Ericsson - the world's biggest telecom company, is ONLY supporting LTE, so WiMAX might be a failed standard, just like HD-DVD.

  • "When will this handset be available in australia? Will it work in australia? i've also lost tomtom nevigator on my htc hd. any advice on how to get it back on please. Thanks" LTR. this phone is for sale in Russia Only. It uses WiMAX(4G) as its primary network. do not get down about it though, Australia will be seeing 4G, along with most of the world soon...

  • 4G spring is releasing it soon

  • Can someone explain? The phone title says MAX 4G, under the specs headings GENERAL - states 2G network, under heading DATA -states 3G - No - so is it safe to say that it uses 2G technoloy and will be able to function wiht 4G once is fully developed. Thanks,

  • where can i buy MAX 4G

  • If it HAD 3G the rest of the world would be able to use it! We all know WiMAX is faster, but who cares when you can only use it in Moscow/St Petersburg. It's a HOT phone, why not make a WCDMA version for the rest of us...

  • it has gps ' learn to read

  • when is it out in the UK - announced november 2008 for christ sake. i'm ready for my next htc now please!!!!

  • Where did you learn how to read, it clearly says GPS - Yes, also A-GPS!

  • I did not used, but i think this mobile will in big chalenge with other Mobiled in Market. What is the price??

  • yes, it has no GPS too. funny!

  • To all people who complain about no 3G on this phone, LEARN TO READ !!!!!. It is a 4G phone ( HTC MAX 4G ) DERRRRR , and it does not need 3G because it is for wimax enabled areas ( only a few in the world ) which is far better than 3G. This phone will be no good in most countries because most countries still run on slow 3G. The fact that many peopel are complaining about no 3G on thios phone just shows the rest of us , how stupid an illiterate many of you are.

  • thats because it was designed for LTE.

  • ha ha .... it's really very funny and unbelievable that HTC MAX '4G' doesn't have '3G' :))... LOL ... just dump the plans to buy this and i suggest to go 4 HTC touch pro 2. It's always good to have alternative input to mobiles other than the touch screen, as I've seen that iPhone touch screen was giving problems and we even we can't dial a no. & left with a dummy phone which can't do anything except accepting calls.

  • hi all... what s the deffrent between HTC HD...??

  • The phone doesnt comes with 3G unbelievable... this one must be costing a bomb

  • pliz email me some time [email protected] am dying to find out more about this phone and u seem to be the expert.how much is it?

  • will it work in uganda coz the networks support only 3g.i would like to know wat functions i'l stil be able to use?

  • where can i find this fone?! im trying to find it here but sad to say i cant find even one here in israel...

  • Hi dear, According to me it is the best mobile i have seen till nw because it supports HSCSD also and these is a 4g phone and 3g is nt required

  • so can you make video calls with it?

  • When will this handset be available in australia? Will it work in australia? i've also lost tomtom nevigator on my htc hd. any advice on how to get it back on please. Thanks

  • phones mostly are backwards compatible. i assume it can use 3g too

  • The phone does not need 3G capability simply bcoz the phone has wimax capability. I actually do not think the smart consumer will be buying this phone now and if they do, they will be buying it as an investment waiting to be fully used once Wimax service is fully applied to their location. (Im in NY and the only place with wimax now is baltimore and Wash. DC). So again no 3G required if the consumer will use wimax otherwise HTC offers plenty other phones just as nice for 3G fanatics.

  • well....ummm it doesnt support 3G because it had 4G its newer tech if u didnt realize and its designed for Yota only, a Russian telecomunications company

  • I agree It shud hav 3G how can a fone b so advanced and not have 3G. Not to say I dnt like this phone I happen to like it very much but was very dissapointed wen i found out dat it doesnt support 3G

  • The colour of the screen not visible...the ring tones not working...

  • y isn t it 3 g enabled ??

  • Who works in cyprus?

  • yes this phone work in india pls insall one software on this mobile then we can use any sim on it.i am sure because iam using this mobile if you want to know more things pls call me 9447723441(kerala bsnl number)

  • does this mobile work in cyprus?

  • Will This Phone Work in India.

  • so this phone didnt work in west EU?

  • all htc phones are nice but the big problem in them is most of them have 3.2 or 2 mega pixel cameras which sucks

  • bagoes..bagoes..

  • YOTA WiMAX also works in Saint-Petersburg. The coverage is not full but expanding quickly. Up to 10 Gbit. And they have great plans to cover all the region...As for 3G..It is available from 3 providers here...

  • bagoes, first off, the phone's name says 4g because its meant for the 4g network, and if you do a little research on it, its made specifically for the yota network in russia, secondly its a great phone (personal opinion, it meets most of my requirements and on top of that points for style) lastly just because its not sold in indonesia doesnt mean anything, indonesia is not the capital/center of the world (and definitely not technology wise)

  • they made too much on its named.... why its called 4G anyway......?!! 1.this phone doesn't have 3g network 2.no HSPDA or umts, no video call 3.Wimax its too... fueehww.. u cant sell it in Indonesia......

  • Hello, I see you aren't a very well read person and your Intel leaves much to be desired. 4G actually exists. Vodafone Malta currently offers it's fixed internet service to homes via WiMax. They give you a box which connects to their infrastructure via 4G (no telephones/coax cable here) and you have an awesome internet service reaching lovely speeds. VM currently does not offer WiMaX to it's cellular network but it probably will in the future.

  • Please HTC, Port this thing to 2G/3G, get the specs more in line with the current/next gen of handsets, and release it as soon as possible. This is the only "bulky" mobile I would consider buying. The size ratios of screen to casing are perfect. No ugly rounded corners, beautifully sloped sides, and even nice call button design. Would be nice if they scaled the overall size back a little bit to make it more pocket friendly, but I won't complain as long as it is made available to a wider audience. Hopefully the demand for this design is recognized.

  • 2G/2.5G - GSM/GPRS/EDGE 3G/3.5G - WCDMA (HSDPA/HSPA+) 4G LTE/WiMAX WCDMA is a technology that evolved out of GSM, but is not backwards compatible with GSM. You need the two technologies built into your device to be able to switch between GSM and WCDMA. So in order to have a device switching between 4G and 3G you need both technologies available in a device, especially when WiMax is used for 4G. I'm uncertain how backwards compatible LTE will be with WCDMA, but from what I've read it is not at this stage. The "Generation" naming convention is not indicating how technologies are related, but rather the performance (speeds) and properties of such technologies. 2G and 3G can also be used for PHS and CDMA networks, which again are completely different technology to GSM.

  • Hi, can you tell me what the basic difference is between a 2G, 3G and 4G?

  • cdma and wmax are completely diferent and seperated technologies, if we call to cdma technology as named as for exmp. "apple", wimax will be named as for exmp. again "melon" . so it is stupid behaveor to say apple version melon or melon version apple.... dont be silly.

  • NO - you cannot! Just like you cannot use 2G if your phone only supports 3G. When will you people understand that 2G, 3G and 4G are separate technologies. To support 3G, it needs WCDMA built in. This doesn't come with WCDMA.

  • Hi, can anyone tell me since the phone is 4G can it still use a 3G signal if the 4G unavailable?

  • you dont need 3G wen u got 4G... its better and does the same as 3g plus more!

  • They should make a CDMA/Wi-Max version for Sprint here in the US since Sprint has a Wi-Max network.

  • htc max"4G" but even no 3g.

  • where to buy in the arabic world with full arabic support programms?

  • when are they gonna release it to the U.S.!

  • Vijay are you interested in a HTC HD with 8 GB you can call me on 9833185628 (mumbai)

  • Hi Vajresh, Where can I buy it in Mumbai??

  • This device is not going to be released in the UK !! And is only going to be available to the Russian market.

  • The price in Indian market for this phone is Rs.41,500

  • Yota only works in Moscow, center. When they will expend... not even service department knows.

  • Why should 3G be the only technology to offer video calls? WiMAX can allow video calls if the operator supports it. The video camera will also function with skype and MSN if required, which can be done over any wireless connection.

  • Something dosnt look right, how there is another camera for video call and it says the phone doesnt support 3G

  • can any one tell how can i use wi max in htc max

  • Please rectify in the specifications: As per HTC Site: Camera Main camera: 3.2 megapixel color camera with auto focus Second camera: VGA CMOS color camera You specs says 5 MP Camers.

  • Could anyone let me know about the differences between A-GPS Function and A-GPS support?

  • Seriously, stop saying 4G is 3G!!! If you don't understand those two technologies, simply shut up. "4G" is labeled WiMAX in this instance and is not LTE. Backwards compatibility of both those technologies with W-CDMA is questionable at this stage and not likely. Hence 4G cannot include 3G. It's not all the same!

  • 2G Network GSM 900 / 1800 / 1900 nuff said!.

  • 2G Network GSM 900 / 1800 / 1900 nuff said!

  • a few clarifications - 16e WiMAX (4G) does NOT support 3G technologies as well since they are different standards. this phone will only work with existing 16e networks such as those of Sprint Nextel in the US. It may/may not even work with the WiBro networks of Korea. And finally, it will definitely NOT work with the fixed WiMAX (16d) networks in India.

  • According to the HTC site, this is not a 3G phone. There is no HSDPA specs...

  • yes it does. 4g means it will support 3g as well.

  • Great cell phone, but it doesnt have flash!! even if the camera its not the strenght of this device it should has it...

  • the maximum is 8gb

  • It's 4th Generation (WiMAX - 802.16), wht do you need 3th Gen? Ofcurse some network providers do not offer 4G, but still :P

  • awsome fon but its htc max "4G" and it doesnt even have 3g!

  • attention: ms rose with response to your querry i'am giving you a bible piece of advice, if you can't update o9r install program what you want in you HTC Mag 4g----- better to do is to buy another one or new model... hope this simple message will help you regards

  • Well, I just can say, this will be my next gadget.

  • will it work in india

  • hi, I'm a medical student and I wonder if I can use the "up to date" program (the most usefull program in medicine)on htc max 4g? I've had htc p4350,unfortunatly it wasnt capable for installing the" up to date" program so it wasnt usefull for me at all!

  • By that stage LTE will be available in most countries and there will be no need for WiMAX as a primary network. I'm certain that many dedicated Wireless Broadband providers will adopt the technology though.

  • Dude, read the specs. NO 3G and only available for YOTA in Russia.

  • which countries can it be used in? Possible USA with 3G network?

  • yes,yes wimax its rare on many country but when avaible in many country you can enjoy the full speed

  • No, people are NOT complaining because 4G isn't good enough, people are complaining because WiMAX isn't really available anywhere. It's a network standard that is not very common, and probably won't be for many countries. The rollout of LTE will beat that of WiMAX as many countries already have HSDPA/3G networks and would rather upgrade those than implement a new technology with no devices. 3G would have been great for people that need to travel to other countries and don't want to rely on EDGE alone.

  • Yes, Windows Mobile still supports only 65k of native color "very poor display if compared to 16M of Symbian or Mac"

  • 65K colors!!

  • A lot of people are complaining because this phone doesn't have 3g. But what they fail to realize is that wi-max (4g) is so much faster. Wi-max is going to be the next wi-fi. wi-max can get up to 70mbps. That is a lot better then 3g. Its like complaining about a 3g phone not being having analog capabilities.

  • Can this use in asia

  • The handset was released in November. It's only available via the YOTA network in St. Petersburg and Moscow. Won't be available anywhere else for the moment. www.yota.ru/en/

  • It looks very nice, but I see the release should be in November. It is still in coming soon! Maybe it is canceled?

  • What is the max standard internal memory size and max SD slot size please?

  • @zocc What are you talking about? Because it's 4G, "3G" is included??? You need to learn a lot also. You are talking rubbish! 3G is a standard - UMTS. Do you see WCDMA on the spec list? No. Some people are only able to use 3G services because of lack of a GSM network (Japan, Korea), or because they are made to only use 3G (Hutchison's 3 Australia customers). I cannot use a GSM-only device, even if it has Wi-Fi and Wi-Max as my network operator only supports UMTS. So there you go, learnt something new?

  • Yo know man you should learn something.Its an 4G phone so 3G is included.Its a WiMAX phone and every wireless feature is in it.So learn it.

  • Useless to me without 3G.

  • One of the greatest mobile phone to have, an exception to beat Omnia's greatness. This is the flagship of HTC's greatness.

  • zxczxc

  • great , but 3G ? :)) LoL

  • When du we expect this monster in tha shopz??

  • the gretest noob of all time such gret piece bt no ....... 3G aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh

  • you are not getting it right, you have no idea about Russia. If you concider Russia a Third world country, YOu have no Idea. Moscow is one of most expensive cities in the world. I recoment to visit Moscow, You would be amazed. It's true that russian GSM operators don not have UMTS of as you call it 3G, however, it also plays the role of advantage. Russian operators will not have to worry about expensive upgrading of their 2g network but will be able to use jump straight into 4g. Do you know that India has a better telephone network than USA. Because, uses fiberoptic and we the technology of 19th century.

  • obviously you dony work in the industry and your intelligence leaves much to be desired.

  • not at 384 kbps. especially since next g. 3.5 g offers speeds of up to 40 mbps. twits.

  • you think a 3Rd world nation like russia is going to have 4g technology when networks as advanced as telstra australia dont have it. keep dreaming. if you read the specs it says 2g network.

  • for those of you wondering that and or saying 4th generation technology does not exist let me clearify IT DOES THANKS TO WIMAX as also the name of the phone suggests MAX at the end the phone has been build specifically to work for that network also WIMAX is available in PAKISTAN but it is still on fixed IP and not yet for mobile phones, i think with the release of this mobile phone it seems very likely it will.

  • right they made up! and they never put a man on the moon!and apple had the name touch first! just stay downunduhh way downunduhhh!!!!

  • will this phone be able to work in other countries?because it's built only for russia..

  • I like it's battery.. It is larger than HTC-HD's

  • um 4g doesnt exist. the most advanced network is 3.5 g which telstra australia proudly holds the record for in the guiness book of records for the worlds largest and fastest mobile broadband network.

  • sorry but it's wrong info about the cam it's 3.2 mega pixel and not 5 mega pixel if u want to be sure check the official website www.htc.com

  • Why shouldn't this phone work in europe? If you use wifi for your internet, and just call with local provider

  • C'mon guys, this phone is only for Russia, and they don't have 3G, instead they have WiMAX. The international version, wich is mostly the same as this phone, is the Touch HD, and it's more beautiful.

  • It have 4g

  • I'm sorry, I just realised it doesn't have 3G support, but that doesn't really matter, as you can easily do video calls on 4G.

  • This is because it doesn't have 3G, but the superior 4G (WiMAX), as the name suggests. It can actually still access 3G networks though.

  • This phone has no 3G yet has a Video call camera, and anyway wouldn't they be going backwards......

  • MAX 4G made specially for Russia. Release in other world is not planned. Price ~1000$ "is this phones plays divx format?" No. "Has somebody tried this phone in Wi-MAX network and how it works?" Fast ) .

  • how much is it?

  • will this handset become available in australia.. nice specs, and looks great...

  • Y da F*** would they release this with no HSDPA??? No 3G even. . .

  • by what price? and which ms os(s) could support too?

  • No flash on camera. :-(

  • is this phones plays divx format?

  • wow How much and How soon!

  • 4G isn't 3G, so check your available networks before spending money on it ;-)

  • Has somebody tried this phone in Wi-MAX network and how it works?

  • WTF? hahaha ... only for 2G support.!! SUXXXX!!

  • looks so nice...but not 3G... what a shame!

  • to dj: actually 1 phone has flash that i know of, which is the htc touch pro

  • The camera is 3.2 MP not 5 MP Check this out

  • Hi Jas: Unfortunately all HTC phones don't have flash. I really wish HTC eventually do add flash on their camera.

  • 1000 USD

  • enta 7omar yad da 4 g what means that this mobile 4g wimax.

  • Is there a flash on the camera???

  • this has almst everythn excpt 3g wat da hell so this sux

  • dude no 3g? have you heard of wimax? why do you think it's called 4G?!

  • This MAX 4G looks so good, and it has a biggest screen in its class. It has so many wonderful features, I look forward to replace my laptop. I would like to know the size of MAX 4G keypad? Does it look bigger on the side view when one turn this phone sideway, so that people can easily key-in through thumbs or using stylus pen? I wonder why HTC don't put better lenses and flash light on their camera?

  • Please tell me the cost of this MAX4G in $

  • it will not stand long unless: provide better batterylife, HTC known very poor batterylife... 1500mah with 3.8" screen is totally sucks, cant last to 2 days long...2200Mah is a acceptable battery. provide more Ram to run, at least 512 Ram or more if possible 800Mhz CPU. thus this unit will stand years long. must 5MP camera

  • No 3G...

  • mmmm so charming!! what yota tv really is??

  • good quality, good features, but hurts in the pocket.. phone looks like an LCD monitor,

  • Mobile WiMAX: IEEE 802.16e (2.5 ~ 2.7 GHz) Tri-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE: 900/1800/1900 MHz (Band frequency, data speed and WiMAX availability are operator dependent.)

  • It actually has a 3.2 megapixel camera not 5. These facts are from the official HTC website:

  • Shiva jan, I'm agree with you.It is the most important disadvantage of this phone.Have you bought it?

  • MAX 4G is the only unit competitive enough to challenge Samsung Omnia, nonetheless (Nokia N97 is fairly competitive). In mobile supremacy, Omnia and MAX 4G are the best (mainly because of Windows OS platform). The Office applications helps a mobile unit versatile but supreme in many ways..

  • ppl are crazy... i think HTC is growing at a very good pace and if only they could somehow get cost efficient and sell at par with nokia and sony ericsson... theres no chance it wont do well... but the reason is it does not target the whole market... and again... the style and new sleek designs by them... hats off i mean really... what i expected off from Nokia or Sony ericsson... HTC is proving to be more Market orientated awesome phone... looks too good

  • Why are there no specifics on what WiMAX freqency this device operates?

  • Hi shiva i am agree with you i am one of the HTC useres since hey had not any representative in Iran i have change my handset several time but nonof them are working good in this case

  • dont u know what 4g is r u nuts

  • 4G is an even faster n better network than 3G..

  • What is the 4G memory ore network? i now what is the 3G network but not 4G?

  • disugusting design~

  • WiMAX waoooo love it

  • Why cant they bring it out to the rest of the world,its amazing

  • why doesn't htc provide flash light for phones with good camera. it is one of the main disadvantage for most of the htc phones

  • Undoubtedly, this unit is second to Samsung Omnia in seek of versatility, mobile omnipotence (nonetheless) and as one of the few true iPhone 'killers'.

  • omg!!!!! this phone is way hott i want one now i just got the lg dare i wonder if i can upgrade it to this

  • Check out the iPhone comments on GsmArena homepage. I think HTC users got chewed up by iPhone users.

  • Good phone and a nice display. But a 5mp camera without flash light???

  • What do you think or that phone deloge?

  • u have no idea about display screen

  • 480 x 800 is only the screen size of the phone, not how sharp the colour would be

  • the phone support wimax that is why 4G

  • Hey, Good to hear about the phone. I am interested in it as well. Can you give some the price in US$? Thank you.

  • 4G is other way for connection: WiMAX 802.16 e

  • in reply to jack: u dont need 16 million colors for this phone to have a great display, its the actual numbers of pixels that are important and ask u can see this phone has 480 by 800 which means u will get even better than the iphone's screen... if u check the htc touch HD, it has the same screen specifications as this one, and everyone acknowledges that touch HD has the best display right now in the market...even better than iphone, and yes even better than the new nokia phones that has 16 million of colors but only 240 by 320 pixels...take care

  • OK. Don't buy it :D

  • what is the 4g ?

  • it can only work in Russia? that's what they say or can it work in america also?

  • Why So Serious Son?

  • The cost i don't know but the feature... r u kidding

  • For those who in their country came a newer technology named===>"4g" that's cool, this phone is their necessity.... lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol

  • is this phone is equlant to the iphone in cost and features as well

  • in one word "PERFECT" :)

  • hi I need an emergency help I study in medicine feild and I need a phone pocket-pc(I want to have my refrences with myself every where)and now I have 3 questions: 1-When will HTC MAX4G be in other countries?(Do you think;it's available until 45days latEr?) 2-Which one should I select?HTC TOUCH HD or HTC MAX4G?(rom of TOUCH HD is 528 but rom of MAX4G is 256) 3_Do you know how much HTC MAX4G costs?

  • its actually on the 3.5G network. so its pretty fast still. and the phone is supposed to have 10M colors. go look at the website. there's all the correct info

  • the htc max 4g used stylus? to write with i hope not. its jus like 3g iphone that dont used stylus.some 1 tell me if it used stylus,thx

  • Are you sure apple has 16m colors? Well, from the first look, this phone looks appealing but the price will be somewhere only rocket can reach. Think about it, this phone seems like bundling wimax and a phone features into a Intel Atom laptop. Worth buying? Well, up to individual.. I think.. Cheers.

  • hi everyone, i am from russia.. i got this phone not long time ago, and i have an iphone 3g also, i can tell you one thing!! this thing ROCKS!!! we have 4g, it look likes WI-FI but you can even be in connection while driving or moving!! internet really fast, and touch screen also fast enugh.. its almost pocket notebook. you can do anything you want to.

  • Okay I haven't even seen it for real nor have I worked with it! True. But the fact that it says: OS: Windows is a major reason for not buying that phone!! I mean, I've had other equipment like an organizer or a GPS all running windows CE and whadday think happened very regularly? That's right: spontaneous reboots and system crashes!! I wouldn't want to have this happening whenever I'm having a pone call with some important director concerning an important deal... Sorry.

  • No problem it deosn't have 3g, I love its screen side and WinMo.

  • Hey chris,Here`s ur answere WiMAX, meaning Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access, is a telecommunications technology that provides for the wireless transmission of data using a variety of transmission modes, from point-to-point links to portable internet access[citation needed]. The technology provides up to 75 Mb/s symmetric broadband speed without the need for cables. The technology is based on the IEEE 802.16 standard (also called Broadband Wireless Access). The name "WiMAX" was created by the WiMAX Forum, which was formed in June 2001 to promote conformity and interoperability of the standard. The forum describes WiMAX as "a standards-based technology enabling the delivery of last mile wireless broadband access as an alternative to cable and DSL".

  • no flash !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • because there is not 3g in the country in which this is first debuted

  • for those you are wondering where 3g has gone lol 4g is a new technology and far more better than 3g . so if there is 4g you dont need to have a 3g .. got it and please make this phone 16m colors touch screen like apple or else i wont buy

  • this phone is very kool i never say like this kind phone in my life so light weight so nice very good pics very nice i like this phone

  • This phone is nice ...that is their are many features and the batterie life does'nt stink

  • hi, dear anonymous what is third generation(3G)? help me plz. thanks.

  • wat's WiMAX ?

  • how can is this 4g. when 3g is not work without HSDPA or speed.

  • look at the other data listings above, 3g isn't the only way to go

  • Where the name 4G come from even there are no 3G!!!

  • how come this device have secondary VGA videocall camera without 3g ?????????????

  • visit ebay.com there are a couple of items

  • Come on, no 3G? This must be a joke. WIMAX is great but MAX 4G in my opinion can't be (and probably won't be)very successful.

  • what is 3G?

  • this phone looks great love to buy this. but its coming in next year 2009 its too late, i want it now

  • i want this

  • what is the use of this phone?no 3G....!!!

  • hayyy,,,its great in style and very fantastic with its size and screen size.................ang tanong .................is it better than an iphone..........and greater that n-series phones...............does it functions greater than the said phones...........and does the price not overreacting........... plss...response in able to got one for me'''

  • does this phone with dual soms?

  • Bloody ...HTC..... It should have been HTC Touch HD.... Design is so cool.. I don't like HD design but the specs are awesome though..

  • Disappointing that this phone doesn't support 3G. It is good to have WiMax but it will be great to have HSPA too (both Uplink and Downlink), very few operators in the GCC region support WiMAX and hence 3G with HSPA is a necessity for this part of the world....

  • yes we want screen to be 16m colors and should in built memory should be 8 gb or 16 gb that would be fine

  • we want 16 m color plzzzzz htc wake up and the phone is very beautiful please make the screen 16 m colors before releasing it htc plzz

  • its a 4G protocol. very high speed wireless internet.

  • It looks like an ebook reader.

  • wow! if its going to be released here in Manila, Philippines.. Im going to buy one... promiseeeeeeeeeee!!!

  • WiMax is another WLAN technology used in Russia, Bangladesh etc.

  • WiMax is NOT 4G you dweebs. LTE is an evolution of 3.5G HSPDA which will support existing cellular infrastructure at peak bursts of 300+Mb/s. WiMax is essentially an evolution of wifi conceived by Intel and generally crap.

  • its 4g,new technology,its still in testing worldwide,especially in Japan search on wikipedia

  • Wimax is the next generation wifi which have a much longer range and download speeds.

  • wi-max is similar to hsdpa

  • I've been screaming here all this time that spec is wrong they finally listened 5MP Camera yay!!!

  • WiMax is a newer wifi protocol that can deliver 10 Mbit/s over 2 km distance, at least.

  • WiMAX, meaning Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access, is a telecommunications technology that provides for the wireless transmission of data using a variety of transmission modes, from point-to-point links to portable internet access. The technology provides up to 75 Mb/sec symmetric broadband speed without the need for cables. The technology is based on the IEEE 802.16 standard (also called Broadband Wireless Access).

The forum describes WiMAX as "a standards-based technology enabling the delivery of last mile wireless broadband access as an alternative to cable and DSL (and also to High Speed Packet Access).

  • Wimax is a telecommunications standard. The revision for fix services (broadband internet for small offices / home users) is the standard 802.16d from IEEE. It was basically designed to provide broadband internet using wireless technologies for the last mile, it evolved to 802.16e which is a mobile version. The main importance of wimax is that it's IP based, the voice is used only over IP. It was mainly supported by intel, with chipsets with Rosedale codename. The main difference respect to GSM / EDGE / 3G technologies is that the last ones were born as mobile and voice based, they are migrating now to offer IP services. These technologies were mainly supported by Qualcomm, creator of CDMA and others. I think that at the end, all technologies will merge in one standard. Right now, wimax is still not deployed everywhere, there are some networks in Chicago, Rusia, Japan, Korea, etc, but it's not widely provided yet.

  • wimax is wifi but over a much broader area

  • WiMAX = 4G :) it's a new wireless technology for fast wireless data transfer over big distances. There is an WiMAX operator in my country offering 4Mb/s speeds. And can be used for VoIP. It's very nice.

  • :)

  • What is WiMax ..? Some one please reply...

  • it's so nice looking, the screen is huge!!!!!!!!! but then it's so advanced!! i dun even know what yota and wimax is lol~ HTC designers come from the FUTURE :D

  • I think u have to chose which design is just 4 u. And HD doest have rus interface, max has no eng. Thes are both not PMP or photocam, and there is no 3G and poor wimax coverage in moscow.

  • i dont know what we have in america that russia doesnt have but they have video call and almost all of the world, do we have it? thank you verizon the best provider in the world. for example research how much u can get an htc phone in england with a contract and check how much u will pay for a regular phone from verizon. so whos the idiot here?

  • It says here that this phone has a 5MP camera, which, according to www.htc.com, it is a 3.2MP camera! but i also want your opinion... which phone should i buy? HTC Touch HD, or HTC MAX 4G?

  • This is still not very useful as 4G (WiMax) is not very common yet and the coverage is still limited in most countries.

  • Thanx. just realy newbe at voip. If its easy to call with it via wimax and itll be comfortable to use onscreen keybord - ill think about MAX if its not ill prefer tytnII or just tytn cose it realy titanic.

  • Peregruzkin You can use every skype for windows mobile program you want. There is fring, official skype for windows mobile as well as many other. Some uses internet connection, some GSM. heather Yota is Scartel's brand. Scartel is owned by Telconet Capital Limited Partnership (74,9%) and the Russian Technologies State Corporation (Rostekhnologii, 25,1%) recommended price for this device is 28900 rubles (840 euro). this include yota services (music, tv etc)

  • There is no definition for 4G yet. Just an overall explanation - fast and allowing modern multimedia services - video calls, tv etc. That's why WiMax is considered to be 4G, because it's a lot faster.

  • Does anyone else think it is strange that they are calling a 2G phone Max 4G?

  • Its only going to be available in Russia ...becuase of the 4G Network. it will become available sooner in other countries

  • what is the meaning of yota mobile? what is meant by yota tv?i want to know every thing about these terms?can anyone tell me? at which time this device will reach dubai?

  • Will it be possible to use skype with this device via Yopta?.. Will it be as simple as calling via gsm?

  • We have camera phone but not for video calling this is first one it think used for video calling and used with wifi network

  • andriod master, i dont think it will work in USA since USA GSM's work on 850 and this one supports only 900.

  • very good technology but still wayy to the future, no cell phone provide wimax yet in my country i think in 2 more years or above there will be wimax in my country , nice spec though!still i love my tytn 2

  • The phne will work...but there are no 4g towers yet so your not gonna enjoy video conferencing or wimax

  • I hope this is better than my diamond...

  • OMG this phone is hot!!!! I must have it!!!!if i'll buy it in Russia will it work in USA with our companies? or some features are not gonna work?

  • Wow, that's Uber Cool

  • wiki it, wimax is city wide wireless network

  • Now that true, I think its just that the phone was made for Russia in the first place. So they just couldnt put 3g in it.

  • haha Russian Screenshots... yea no 3.5 sux...but still the phone looks great...n great features

  • @Litvak pity this phone is being released in Australia and WE do have 3G so it matters

  • oh noooooooooo switzerland will never get this phone... we're can i buy it???

  • Hey people, there IS 3G in Russia - from three providers =) WiMAX is just an alternative. Only some regions don't have 3G because the missile guidance systems use the same frequencies, so if you launch 3G in Moscow without disabling those military systems, it goes BOOM! =))) That's why they launch WiMAX before 3G in some regions.

  • First of all, the time of cold war is over!!! Second so you would know, Storm is available in Russia, Third Iphone is more expensive becouse its not blocked, Fourth Iphone sucks. Fifth you are russian becouse your name is russian, Sixs does USA have WIMAX?, Seventh- Why does it even metter if russia hase something that america doesnt? you have to admit this is way better than Storm, and touch HD is not available in america, you have to admit that russian smartphone market is really big (a lot of people with a lot of demand). If it would be available only in China, would you complain, or for absolutely no reason start to compare the country with USA??? I bet you wouldnt. You just hate Russia, you live in the past, in the cold war times. Why do you hate Russia? Because you are afraid of it? Or because you emigrated to USA and USA is in a crisis when Russia is going up? My point is DONT INVOLVE SMARTPHONES IN RUSSIAvs.USA CONFLICT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • yes! america leads! look every single tv programm shown in america is copied by russin tv companies! u can`t compare d*ck with the finger!

  • Try to beat this-Blackberry storm! America rulezz! u don`t even have wireless internrt on your phones! and our iPhone costs 3 times more than it`s suppose to be in original!

  • Try beat this Blackberry Storm,America rulezz!!!!!!!

  • Try beat this Blackberry Storm,America rulezz!!!!!!!

  • You are forgeting something... THERE IS NO 3G IN RUSSIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.... so stop posting this redicilous posts about the fact that it doesnt have 3g!!! Its like complaining that it does not have a german-french translator bouil in... Its just useless in russia, and this phone is russia exclusive!!!! So they dont need 3g!!!!!!!!!!! Its redicolous how people post without research or checking what other poeple write!!! Sorry if I am being a bit rude, but thats just how I feel!!!

  • +37744627799 can l take this phon aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­a

  • Wtf . . . Why so huge and no 3g . . . Wimax is nice to have but 3g is important everywhere. Better drop wifi but keep 3g !

  • Really i respect HTC sooo much...but i think it's very strange thing that 5 mp cam and come without flash?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Since i prepared HTC diamond in Thailand! They take my camera my screen and sound from my mobile for sale to another costomer and use old thing to my HTC mobile! i feel i don't like HTC anymore because they lost control there company in asia.

  • dude why do u think russia is americas nr 1 rival... everything america does, russia do better. Atom BomB.. u name it. so dont be surprised to find out america does not lead on every front. the arrogance and stupidity is prohinbinting america to do so... eaven some dumb terrorists managed to attack u on your on soil fram an desert based camp. nou who is stupid???? look in teh mirror dumb azz

  • This GSM is 4G not 3G, Why to pay a bunch of money for 3G internet when I could use WiMax - Here in Bulgaria is 2048Kbps (no limited internet) for 12.5 euros per month.

  • We don't have 3G in my country smart mouth. What is your reply on solving the issue without smart remarks??????

  • ow... my god... you just dont know a think... its not supposed to have 3g, it has WIMAX instead...

  • I am surprised, such a device with high specification and there is no 3G? Companies are going forward and HTC is going backward!

  • you need to learn how to spell first before posting comments!!!

  • WOW this is why i stay whit HTC this is gonna be my 6 htc phone

  • WiMAX in a simple form is more like a broadband connection but only wireless

  • Almost has every thing nice but NO UMTS too bad

  • WiMAX is a wide range 4G network to extend the 3G coverage.

  • Yes! We've beat USA! Stalin rules, Lenin alive, SuperPutinMan own the world! But the only one bug killing me about this divice - no 3,5 jack in internet multymedia device. So china marketing kicks us both.

  • waiting for 5g lolzzzzz

  • 5g?? this thing is not even 4g, noting is 4g yet... so dont even think about 5g

  • I cant wait 5G!

  • Now that's what you call more convenient to have wimax capabled phone in your pocket. I might b happy with it's WiFi functionality, but what if it offers WiMax, aren't you more glad.

  • wow. i think htc made this phone to test out the knowledge and education level of their customers lol. "putin probably carries his house phone on his belt", russia has it and america don't?" "russia is ahead of america"?. no wonder the world makes fun of us, rich but dum. people u should be shy to ask such questions, save the embarrassment for all of us. the world doesnt turn around america, allot of countries have more and better stuff then we do. do research, or travel somewhere. all u got here is walmart, wrangler jeans or levy's and a hoody. we are so filled with the idea we different cause we better, that we are way behind in almost everything.

  • This looks almost identical to the much remored Google samsung Gphone which never got released. And I love it. No curve. Plain square...maximum utilization of screen space.

  • sigh... no flash! but cool design

  • You guys are either kids or really retarded adults. The phone has WiMax, that's nice, there's WiMax in most of the world. Don't be stupid judging Russia or any other country. You should first learn English before posting your comments, because it's pain in the a** to understand what you're trying to say. And WiMax allows for VoIP which is much cheaper and more flexible than the voice service offered over 3G from your providers. Educate yourself before showing the world how stupid you are. Start by reading wikipedia articles on WiMax, 3G, WiFi, VoIP.

  • y does russia have 4g?? those commies r too broke to afford this kind of phone. dont b lying 2 urself putin. u probably walk around with ur house phone attached to ur belt cause ur so broke

  • looks like a hard disk

  • lol cuz windows mobile only supports up to 65k colour

  • Russia the only country to have 4G ? so they beat the USA ?

  • Wimax is not 4g!!!!!!! its a superior version of WI-FI, the speed and area covered is larger than wi-fi. Noting to do with 4g...

  • wats WiMAX ? and "Proximity sensor for auto turn-off" For Auto Turn Off For Mobile ? MAIN PLUS POINT : 8 GB Internal Memory. pls reply about Wimax.

  • wi max is 4g and superior ,faster to 3g

  • GUYS!! Get a GRIP!! This is not 3G, it's not even 4G. It's a scam, a trick, a rouse on behalf of the Carriers. This phone is designed to be used with a carrier supporting WiMax. Most likely Scartel in Russian and AT&T in the US and it's primarily being targeted at Data so don't expect decent phone features or battery life, but DO expect to loose your shirt on monthly costs in a long term lockin contract. This will not be a common device but will make an interesting prototype experiment for HTC in the WiMax area. The Carrier's will love this s**t to keep you topping up their Quarterly Revenue's. Goodamn it HTM put ANDROID on a 3G version of this device so the rest of the world can buy it.

  • You guys are funny, this is a WiMax phone.

  • WiMAX 16e is pre-4G

  • looks like a miniplasma tv

  • Probably because of WIMAX...

  • Because Russia does not have 3G. The Earth does not revolve around America, wake up.

  • *sigh* HTC is very good at repeating themselves, it seems they just release the same phone over and over again with just a new shell, same sluggish, visually cluttered user interface, same boring black piano finish, same awful touch interface, everything is just the f*cking same from this company.. Is this a bad joke from HTC's side or just total lack of innovation and fantasy? I'm guessing the later.. Give us something NEW and DIFFERENT for once HTC, dare to do something more than just repackade the same phone every third month.

  • its 4g.not 3g.4g is better than 3g.4g enable the use of calls via internet using wifi

  • 4G is the next gen version of 3g, this phone is the first 4G HTC Phone. Hope this helps

  • Where is the camera flash dear htc???? Another device without flash... from htc... what a pitty! Why do they hate lighting so much?

  • do people do not see 4G before asking about 3G. Most important feature, but yota doesnt support 3g. where as 4th gen is may be much faster and less limits. if only someone can find a way to let this device to use its WiMax under the protable internet network in north america then that'll be like having dsl on the go, and cheaper.

  • ummmm 2g 3g ...........4ggggggggg

  • wimax is available widely in pakistan too and some parts of china but still that's ok people can use the EDGE network or something until the wimax becomes used widely in most countries :D

  • Oh also! This is mainly for the users of the Yota Network in Russia...

  • Lol 4G nice o also those who are worried about the fact that there is no 3G well its got 4G its a more quicker and improved form of 3g... why do you think it supports video call? and WOW WIMAX! why do you think it supports video call?

  • nokia n810 wi max internet tablet 2008 os linux based device has no cell radio but bt and wi fi , surpasses symbian for al scripts witn linux 3.5 jack and tv out and qwerty with the touch screan at 3.8 the htc will make a qwerty soon im sure

  • no daot this cell phone is soo awsum

  • What will be its cost?? Touch pro hd is available for 26000 rs,and this ??

  • its so funny that in the pics of the max 4g, the last pic; after rotation, the phone got slimmer and longer :P

  • available only to russia??? got damn it's sooo hottt i envy u guys there in russia

  • Why win mo? so that real people like us can use it! and you can have your Android on this if the guys at xda-developers make a ROM for it. Do that on Android!

  • Is that really going to fit into my pocket?!

  • very interesting design update to the Diamond and Pro though. looks like what a samsung p2 mp3 player will look like if it was ever made into a phone

  • Windows Mobile does more than that shaty Android that Os has so many friekin problems right now and besides it looks gay

  • not realy , whole nyc is laying wimax.....hmm come to think of it, i think nyc already got wimax towers. any ways i would like to get one!

  • After reading all about WiMAX and LTE, I would prefer using LTE. Anyway technologies have a half-life of only a few months these days. Unfortunately there is no WiMAX or LTE in Australia, and the 3G that we have, is not being used by the general public to the fullest, specially when the pricing is sky high. Its like a rip off. I hope HTC comes up with a decent practical handset with LTE by 2010. Who needs 3G anymore, we need more browsing speed.

  • The HTC Touch HD looks way better with its curve shape.

  • Wow.. the design is awesome. Should have been Touch HD. I hate Touch HD design.

  • Will there be a similar version coming out to other markets? let's say America?? Even if the specs are adjusted to our networks... I like it... but not enough to move to Siberia...

  • great...another phone to look at but i can't use. so why bother.

  • It would definitely be the ultimate Android phone, if it had 3G instead of (or in addition to) WiMax, since US carriers don't use WiMax yet. If Android's gonna beat the iPhone, they need to get on this hardware (or something better) ASAP. And leave the Video calling, FM radio, and TV features intact!!

  • why don't HTC release a 3g-enabled version for general release? I don't understand...big screen, thin, it's what people want!

  • Linux has zero popularity in Russia. Symbian owns 3/4 of market, WinMobile owns 1/4 of Russian market. Linux owns about 0,1%. It's just useless. 3G in Russia is available mainly in far rural regions. Afaik there is a test network in Saint Petersburg, but there are no plans for 3G in Moscow, as 3G frequencies are owned by military. @Rom Russia is among top mobile markets in the world and one of most attracting market. Nokia 5800 will launch also in few days here.

  • WOW! who needs Wi-Fi when thats in the phone!!!! wonder when 4G comes everywere else?

  • why at this rezolution so high it have just 65k??

  • wat a phone :-))

  • very nice

  • Hope they release this one with 3G as most of markets in world uses 3G network

  • This phone is really looks great and nice design. but very sad of your company that why this only 3G to Russia. Very unfair. If this comes to Asia with all good features like 3G, then this will be my dream handset. So i want to ask when and will it be including 3G when it going to release to Asia..???

  • there is no 4G WiMax network Provider in AUS yet.! i guess you talking WiBro.!

  • Which mobile phone provider has 4G in AUS ?

  • Austrlaia has 4G as well actually

  • People: This device is design for 4G (WiMax made from Samsung) network which is Next Generation of 3G (made from Qualcome) therefore it does not have 3G (because its becoming old now) why 4G ? because its over 40 X faster than 3.5G(HSDPA) and its currently only for Russia as there are only Russain market has 4G network. 4G -WiMax speed 100 Mbps 3.5G -HSDPA speed upto 7.2 Mbps 3G speed 469.1 kbps

  • bummy, it's what millions of people looked at when they bought iphone

  • Better design? The near border less, 3.8" screen is all you look at.

  • is it so hard to understand? 3G= third generation, 4G=forth generation you can read it here and about the flash light i hope HTC hear what you're saying they're the most innovative company but they can still improve so much

  • what do you mean by 4G...............?????? why the htc people doesnot give flahlight to their mobiles..........???? can any one give mr the answer...........????

  • it seems like this thing is for russia only because its the only country that has 4G network

  • Why Russia? WHYYYYYYYY!!!!1!!!.......\-:

  • it's design is so great but couldn't they include better camera in it?

  • sooooooooooooooooooo pretty!

  • this thing isn't going to win any beauty contests! at least it's not about the looks in this case, but I'd still go for the iPhone 4G or no 4G $$$

  • Beauty and the Beast in one !!!

  • no 3G but with video call camera ? btw what is 4G ?

  • Why 3G is missing? as this is one of the most important feature.

  • Wow.. does it a first step to another head-to-head line with iPhone 3G? as it still not 3G though. Awaiting another surprise from HTC. -DG-

  • iLikeIT!

  • i think i might be in love :D

  • Thats an awesome phone! Will get this when it comes out yo.

  • it looks like a TV. ahahahhaha nice 1 HTC btw. whats new about 4G? and wimax

  • oh my god wi-max only

  • 4G?!? ... No wonder this phone does not support 3G ...

  • what is 4G?

  • love the design on this one, just wondering if there will be a cdma variant so wimax could work in the us?

  • Same as the HD but with 4G ....

  • why winmo~~why not android~~its would be 1000 time better with android in this baby

  • It's not the same. at least there is no 3G, and the videocalls and VOIP calls are possible via WiMAX networks only! The main camera and the other stuff also differs.

  • this is the same as HD, but is has 4g connectivity. witch is no use for many of us, and it will be exclusive only to russia

  • someone obviously designed that phone with a etch-a-sketch

  • what?! it is identical to the touch HD!
