HTC Zeta - User Reviews

  • 2.5ghz quad but only 1gb of ram? Look at those tiny bezels, awesome!

  • why this phone is cancelled

  • me too

  • htc zeta> mate 7

  • Z3 Compact = HTC Zeta. Better even!

  • almost perfect form factor for me!

  • How one would have got this phone, while it was never launched?

  • This Is So Noce Mobile i I am LuckilyZTo I Bought This Mobile

  • 57 BC

  • Could sb plz tell me when exactly it was released??

  • Could sb plz tell me when exactly it was released??

  • GSMA-please remove this ... from list

  • Look up Xiaomi or Meizu, for example. You'll be impressed.

  • I never seen this type of phone which having this type of specification.......& the style is just soooo attractive.......better then htc one..S4...Z..AND OTHER FLAGSHIP

  • It is sad that this phone was canceled. I is not easy to find a phone with this characteristics and less then 120 mm long.

  • is it released for locals to buy..... and if yes whats the price

  • That bezel look amazing. Sad that the phone was cancelled

  • 8.1.2013 announced Snapdragon 800. Running four of the latest Krait 400 CPU cores clocked at an incredible 2.3GHz. So now everything is possible,go HTC Zeta :)

  • meet mt love for ths phone.....

  • Dears, GSMarena mentioned in the status of this phone the word "Rumored" pay attention if released i dont think will release with Quad 2.7Ghz

  • Excellent exercise of design. In term of hardware arhitecture if it will go on the market there will be a need for more RAM and internal storage. As for the software it is obviou that ICS is past due. Hope that Htc will provide phones with similar design...very efficient use of dimension, and by doing so a phone similar in size with htc one x could easy accommodate a 5 inch display full hd of course. As for hardware please update the batery technology because we only talk about ghz, mhz, rams but not juice and more proccesing power will always request more power

  • cellphones's cpu frequency its not really fast than you tink, it's just fancy numbers, but doesn't improve much performance at all, just a bit, Nintendo 3DS has just 200MHz cpu+gpu, and you need a 1.2GHz dual core cellphone to nearly match 3DS

  • very very fast phone from HTC

  • This phone is too beautiful for HTC.

  • Believe me, phones WILL require the amount of processing power in the next year or so, we're almost getting there. Optimus G2 and the HTC M7, one with Qualcomm's upgraded S4 Pro is clocked with 2.5GHZ and 2-3GB of RAM, the HTC M7 is a Tegra 4 Quad Cortex A15 enabled device that will be clocked between 1.8.2.5 GHZ also with a 5 Inch 1080p Display. Remember, there were doubters that said the HTC HD2 would never make the industry change because the screen was too huge and there wasn't need for a WVGA DISPLAY, despite, guess what, doubters are always proven wrong and the screen res was upped to 720p and is now 1080p. If we all think enough is enough, think again, because the industry doesn't sit still and will always improve.

  • This is here for more than a year so please take it out - its not going to happen

  • I think this phone isn't true I mean it has been several months on the rumor mill and nobody heard anything about it then nobody will need a phone with that much processing power also it's so hard and expensive for a company to design a phone like this.

  • Thats where you are wrong. The new ARM Cortex A15 architecture is much more efficient than the current A9. Power consumption is reduced and also it depends on the chipset! I have mentioned about this below, you might wanna take a look

  • for the cpu, battery juice will drain off quickly. this needs at least 2500maH or higher to last all day w/o charging. if not, you'll end up drained before you can make a phone call.

  • Battery still a 1830 ... haven't they learned a lesson yet??

  • quad core 2.5 and battery 1830 mAh !!!!! shit...

  • In a couple of years, the only difference between a phone and a laptop will be the sim card...

  • If not announced in max 1 month I will buy one x+

  • Oh a quad 2.5 is very much possible. New ARM Cortex A15 processor can be pushed to 2.5 GHz clock speed. This phone will be a shocker if released. There is all the list of phone processors and GPUs here

  • THats because it has a Quad-Core 2.5Ghz.!!!

  • 32 GB internal memory !??**** 1 GB RAM !??**** Just thinking why is this a romour..!!

  • It's a concept phone.

  • Only one gig of ram? Quite dissapointing

  • HTC Zeta is the 1 of the best mobile in my life. It's a good brand as compaire to other....

  • It's still a rumor though!

  • Is There Any Typing Mistake In CPU???... 2.5 Ghz ... OMG

  • Is There Any Typing Mistake In GPU???... 2.5 Ghz ... OMG

  • will be perfect with 2gb or 3gb ram. realy amazing

  • And its quad core too ;)

  • Dont tell them tht i told u tht

  • they have made awindows phone its call the htc mozart

  • it is totally a rumour. i wana tell that this set will not come atleast for the next 1.5 year. i would sAy HTC must make windows phone....

  • Hehee, I told them about this phone!

  • hehehe..such a compact size....hope this one is real like motorola razr i

  • i think it is not worth for the money

  • q core 2.5 with only 1830 mAh bty that's totally sh+t

  • 2.5gh + beats headphone

  • 2.5gh + beats headphone

  • Not sure, have you saw new "mysterious" htc phone? That might be this one but this was only Rumor so nether spec nor picture are true...

  • 2.5 g.h? wtf?

  • m using this headset sooooo awesome nd nice htc ZETA

  • I think this phone has been cancelled.

  • NO 4G so upseting :( battery :( heavier than one x though smaller resolution :(

  • Very true, this is going to fail badly if it releases within 2 months of the iPhone 5. Either it needs to release before the iPhone, or after the buzz has died down.

  • What??? Quad-core, 2.5GHz and will use a Standard battery, Li-Ion 1830 mAh!!! No way! You can keep it HTC. Look around you. Others have reached above the 2000 mAh mark and you're still stuck @ 1.8 mAh

  • make it fast its too late i phone 5 is coming..............

  • definitely its not going to be a windows mobile.until now there is no windows phone with dual core processor,and not more than 512mb of ram.how come they release a windows phone directly with quad core...?this could be an android one....

  • Zeta should have windows 8. Much better than all the bugs an control of android. At least windows worked reliably. Depends if you are an app freak/yuppy or want a phone that works for business. I hope HTC listen this time. They dont always

  • display must be biger at most approx 5 inch ...

  • Hmmm I wonder if it will ship out with jelly bean

  • At 2.5GHz, it should be Krait, as it's the only quadcore ARM SoC rated for such speeds at this moment. For those doing ZOMG 2.5GHZ, IT MUST SUCK BATTERY LIFE INSTANTLY!!!!111ELEVEN... remember that the cores clock down once done with their work, which goes quite fast at such speeds. It's refered to as 'race to zero'.

  • it will come with adreno 225 and enhance 4 times the graphics

  • the cpu name code..krait or kal-el..if we didnt wrong few years ago gsmarena told us of these quad core monster will release..well sometime..the last quarter of this year were the best time to release the quad core monster to defeat all the lazy brained phones before.

  • The GPU is not yet known.

  • doesnt it have a gpu??

  • how do you knw its reina lcd

  • Do anyone knows when HTC will release this?

  • official version of htc zeta is coming with 2 gb ram and 3000mhz of battery

  • Nice design, i like it...make retina lcd

  • It can't be real, quad core 2.5GHZ?????????????? OMG

  • 2.5 GHz with 1820 mAH Battery ???? YOu kidding

  • Are you serious? Windows maybe runs well but it's just so stupid... it's not thought out.. android maybe lags from time to time, but it's fantastic. And buying a phone from an operator is not a good idea, because they actually make the OS different and put they're wallpapers, shut down screen and other stuff in it, so they make it worse and slower. This phone would be best with Icecream Sandwich and from an official HTC shop.

  • wow qudcore2.5ghz just wonderd with 1.5ghz

  • Quad-core 2.5GHz ? What? No way,I mean is it going to pack a 9000+mAh battery?

  • I originally heard it was to be a windows 8 phone. I hope it is not android and all its bugginess. At least windows 5 and 6 mobile were stable and ran well. I want a Zeta with windows and through Vodafone.

  • I think this will be a WP8 smartphone

  • This will not be running ICS because goggle has already released Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean) with it's Nexus 7 tablet it will probably be running a version of Android 4.1.

  • i hope that HTC release the next phone with internal storage of 32/64 gb,i have 32gb mem card but still short of storage..

  • standerd looks

  • standerd looks

  • Qcore 2.5GHz will be a problem for 18xx mah battery ....

  • 146g is good for QUAD CORE 2.5 don't you think so?

  • Quad-core 2.5 GHz...with Standard battery, Li-Ion 1830 mAh......?

  • At last a smart phone that is a sensible size. Not everyone has hands like Michael Jordan. Add handwiting recognition and I'll have one or two

  • hk.,yki

  • Weight =146 g !!!!???? I'll hire someone to carry it.

  • wowowowow!!!awesome!!!4.5 inch and the size is pocket friendly!

  • wowowowow!!!awesome!!!4.5 inch and the size is pocket friendly!

  • this phones fake.

  • Expecting this phone.. super phone & super fast.. No need to have destop...

  • Hey Batman,are you mad to say that it will last only 2 hours,think about it,why HTC will make such kind of phone which won't last more than 2 hours?????

  • Hey Batman,are you mad to say that it will last only 2 hours,think about it,why HTC will make such kind of phone which won't last more than 2 hours?????

  • Hey Batman,are you mad to say that it will last only 2 hours,think about it,why HTC will make such kind of phone which won't last more than 2 hours?????

  • Ram must be 2 gb. This phone is really insane man. It will be the best phone in the world

  • my desktop's processor in only 2.93Ghz this thing is insane!

  • one hellova monster!!

  • what a phone. what is the speed of cpu(2.5ghz) I cannot believe this

  • what a phone. what is the speed of cpu(2.5ghz) I cannot believe this

  • 1850Mah is to low for this Glutton phone (2.5GHZ Quad-Core)

  • when it ra me will remove HD2 lost

  • Quad Core 2.5? without a doubt this phone will be fk HOT phone i guess. wakaka!

  • plzz realese dis device with micro sd slot, 2800 Mah battery, 16/32 gb in built memiry & 1.5 gb ram.... it will be d best android phone...

  • Quad Core 2.5GHz and just 1830mAh Battery.. thats a joke..!

  • Very nice design, interesting processor, probably a krait architecture, but by the time will come out we will see higher display resolution, more ram and higher capacity for battery. Very good design. Hope that Htc will keep this way or as close as possible. Maybe ampn Igzo display would be great. At present we can only hope...

  • windows phone 8?

  • where did u get 2 hrs of battery time when its 1850mAh ?????

  • A 4.5" screen in such a compact body is already a design triumph, not to mention the top spec. HTC #1.

  • You're right about it

  • When???

  • YEAHHH SUREEEEE :))) 2,5 ghz 4.5 screen and 1830mAh :)))) battery life 2 hours :))))come on ...

  • As I see this is just a big fat lie becouse there is now way that thise phone will have a 2.5 GHz processor in my opinion if all this is true then thise phone wil cost about 700$ even more

  • Thanks to the designers for the new face-up for HTC. we could finally see that they have combined 'ART" and "technology".

  • this is a stupid phone coz it has quad core 2.5 ghz cpu but only has 1830 mah battery .... htc has to improve their battery life to get people to buy these... :/

  • somebody knows the release date?

  • ppl used to say that also b4 the 1.5Ghz phones came out so i jst hope technology proves ur ass wrong

  • this... is... MADNESS!!! :P

  • my god this is great uqdcore 2.5 ghz i will gonna wa8 this for soon,,, :D

  • Thisphone will live only about 2 hours with 1830 mAH battery and 2.5 GHz quad core CPU...

  • It's right ??? quad core 2.5ghz????

  • When will it be realesed

  • thats better than my laptop... i'm gonna play nds games on that shit :D

  • 2 years ago people said that dual cores 1.5ghz cpus on phones will burn the case and battery will last 5 minutes ... technology 1 - people 0 .

  • If the specs are true....I mean 2.5 ghz quadcore...well that's awesome,then imma buy it on its release...after all HTC make perfect smartphones as I have one this time and its great although i've had it for abt 2 yrs now

  • m8 seriously if you have cuad core on your pc that dosent mean that your pc going to be overheated, cuz quad core it cant be used like simple processor and thats the reason that quad will never bee hot as simple processor.. PS this is cpu for smart phone not for Desktop PC im trying to say that cpu is dedicated for smartphone and they think about overheat than they make this awsome PC (UPS I MEAN SMARTPHONE :P) sory for my bad english.

  • if a mobile has a 2.5ghz processor,your skin would burn off because of heat the released....more over its a quad core 2.5 ghz......it needs a cooling fan if not have a burnol(any pain relief cream) all the time in ur pocket.........

  • omg!!!! quad core 2.5 ghz...........its a pc ;)

  • wtf!!!! quad core 2.5 ghz... what is this a pc??

  • holy crap !!!! quad-core 2.5ghz ! thats a lap top ! ! !

  • Whoa... a Quad Core of 2.5 Ghz... with just 1 GB of RAM... isnt that ironical.

  • Honestly I dont think 2.5 ghz quad core is necessary for a phone

  • quad core 2.5 Ghz? without cooling system it will be hot as hell if this is true, its so amazing

  • I think it is One X. Needs updating. There is no other quad core from them coming soon. Lichota Robert

  • 2.5 quadcore?!?! *[]*

  • I wanna root this. lets see results on benchmark pi

  • I just came

  • Has anyone else noticed that in the pic for an Android 4.0 handset, it features four soft touch buttons not three like the Galaxy Nexus? Does look to be a good phone. I'm holding out & hoping my n900 lasts until the release of this phone.

  • Good work htc, am an exprienced smart phone technician and used htc for long since they launched the 2002 windows phone and now I have the htc sensation. I have Used the Iphones but just for bosting around. If u really need performance, u should not mis this killer of smartphones.

  • With an IP-S Display, Latest GPU, 2gig RAM instead of one and nice beefy removable 2500mAh battery this could be one beast but will need LTE and/or HSPA+ or you'll have a fast device slowed by 3G networking. Obviously very pre-lim specs but be nice to see an HTC powerhouse ICS device. GO HTC GO

  • Hurry and make this so I can buy it!

  • Nice phone, but the 2.5 GHz Quad-core processor is too much, the battery life will be too low. No one needs all that power in a mobile phone.

  • HTC Zeta it is great design & Quad-core 2.5 GHz processor, it�s make mother of all smartphone�s. THANK YOU ZETA DESIGNERS.

  • A processor with a clock of 2.5 GHz wud be big, fat and hog up the power... Lets see where this goes..

  • Finaly a big screen without the phone beeing the size of a brick.Lets hope its not just a concept,or at least the phone to screen size will be put in production.

  • Dear HTC, Please please please make this phone QUICK. Finally a phone with a large screen that goes right to the edge that doesnt waste space and is comparitive in size to iPhone (and therefore beats it). Make it, and i'll buy 2 (in case i lose one).

  • What's the point if it can't run Killzone or Uncharted.

  • WHATTT THE F***!!! Its the first time in my life to see a 2.5 GHZ processor! I didn't even dream that well be a mobile phone like that ! Oh My GOD!

  • Now its the time for smartphones...., by the production of the phone...,laptops sucks for sure...., wht the helll processor....,2.5ghz quadcore ...,i cnt believe thz....,unbelievable....,

  • the only thing i agree with you is the battery.. as for screen, the new S-LCD is of unknown performance, but from the hands on of the One X, the reviewers said it has improved tremendously.. i rather have more neutral colours than pixelated pentile.. for microSD slot.. it is nice to have expandable storage, but recent study has shown that it is actually SD card that slows down the performance of a phone.. so for me personally, having more than 16GB of internal storage is more than enough.. i could sacrifice the convenience of card swapping over phone's performance.. and although 28nm processor is said to be more power efficient and 1800mAh is quite decent for this (and hopefully the 28nm will be in this phone, if ever coming out) having a larger capacity battery will still be a boon. really love the concept design, though..

  • Wish a few things were looked upon before it comes into existence. Amoled Screen instead of Super LCD. Battery 2500 instead of 1850. A memory card slot is a must. Unless the above aren't given priority and consideration, the phone doesn't seem competive. Suggestions and comments are welcomed.

  • Its awesome X4!

  • the phone is real?

  • This is already announced officially Afaik, its known as HTC One X it have Nvidia Tegra 3 (4 Plus 1) 1800 Battery but does not have SD Card slot & no radio also battery is not removeable check =>>>

  • battry is not good coz its cpu is Quad-core 2.5 GHz and Standard battery, Li-Ion 1830 mAh...! Other wise HTC Zeta is a bestest phone..!!

  • where can i buy it i lick it so much because its has very good hardware confrigration for me

  • this phone will have the best gpu in mobile which is adreno 320.. just imagine xbox 360 or ps3 in a phone. sounds great right? awesome..

  • Dude, gs2 has a plastic body, while most HTCs have unibody aluminium design

  • I am david i love htc they are my life. im not sad just a little weird. the spectacles of this phone rock my world.

  • must need memory card slot and great quality disply

  • HTC zeta must have memory card 16gb internal,

  • this phones battery will last longer cuz its doing less work per core, the smaller in nm the more efficient it is -_-. all these tech noobs need google stuff more....

  • this phones battery will last longer cuz its doing less work per core, the smaller in nm the more efficient it is -_-.

  • CPU Quad-core 2.5 GHz Standard battery, Li-Ion 1830 mAh will it last a day.

  • also need 4g & gorilla corning glass display and a very good battery life

  • need a memory card slot also a tv out & what if it has a dual sim

  • masterpiece desigh,small space between screen and the edges,powerfull cpu,ideal sized hd screen,less than 110 mm height but only 1 gig of ram,in case of w8 port by mods it will be too litle...:-( And I wanted to buy it but only a ps2 emulator on android would give to quad core and expensive phones a sense boost...

  • Without an SD card, this will not attract the number of users providers would hope...

  • Actually it doesn't. According to rumours this model would have the type of chipset and gpu that would save around 70% energy compared to the processors of last year.

  • I think it needs more powerful battery !

  • I'm almost sure that this one is not going to be released.

  • It's just a concept!!! This phone is not going to be released.. It's a shame because it is a good looking phone..

  • hdmi port???

  • But this have a really nice design and it stands out among the other HTC design. The huge screen and the minimalist look

  • Amazing... Will this be the next best after HD2????

  • 109 mm for a 4.5" hd screen?If it has no tegra cpu I'll think of this purchase,the only bad is the 140 gramms wile gs2 weighs 110

  • The new qualcomm quad core krait cpus (APQ8064 @ 2.5 ghz) does NOT need more power and does NOT need a bigger battery. It'll consume less power because of their new 28nm manufacturing process and other technological factors... The only thing I'm sure they won't do is clock it at 2.5 ghz, or even use the APQ8064 SoC at all (maybe they will for tablets though). They'll probably go with the dual core Snapdragon S4 MSM8960 krait @ 1.5 ghz. and if they do go quad core they'll probably underclock APQ8064 back to 1.5 ghz.

  • 2.5 Ghz quad-core? Yea right, maybe in 2015

  • Just to add on to my previous comment... how about LTE? From me, 16MP camera maybe too much... 12MP is just nice. The spec shown here plus the card slot plus 12MP camera... mmmm... this should be able to kill iphone... :)

  • great spec... but why no expansion card slot??? :(

  • When is it coming on the market??? I love it! Want it!!! :)))

  • after all this comments now one adressed that it's a Quad Core Cpu with 2.5 GHZ ???

  • please and please htc company we are tied of seing phones without sd cards we use these phones for business and they sack alot on batery, so if u are in afix we only save data on an sd card that can be transfered to another device not to loose yo commitments. i used to be agreat fun of windows htcs like hd2 but ever since they blocked usage of sd card, to hell with them. iphones are very painful on data transfer.

  • if its to be the phone of the year, please just just maintain the 16 mega pixel camera of the titan 2, include sd card and batery upgrade may be to 2000 and above. looking forward to buying this iphone killer.

  • It will have Corning Gorilla Glass I think.

  • Oh my god, somebody quickly tell apple because the Iphone 4S looks IDENTICAL to the Iphone 4?! They're profits are in jeopardy! I'm pretty sure their failing profits will be down to a number getting a Desire into a 12/18mth contract at release (easily the start of their massive demand) and then not being picked up by an HTC release. They really do need to line up their releases to UK/US Carrier contract dates. I.e. my desire runs out in March...will a quad-core be out by then? I'm certainly not going to get a Sensation XL not because of looks, but because it is dual-core, not native ICS etc....

  • I think it should have microSd combine with 16 Gb internal store memory, replace battery with increase volume 2400mAh

  • I think it should has a lot MicroSD (internal memory 16g availble), replace battery and increase volume battery about 2400mAh

  • oooooooh, I was told to wait until the next generation of phones from HTC. I was let on about quad core phones but didn't realise it was going to be nearly as quick as my PC!

  • Is it a Sensation? or an Evolution? or a Desire? The problem with this phone... It looks IDENTICAL to other phones in HTC ranges released over the past TWO YEARS... This is precisely why HTC have lost 25% of their profits - every phone looks the same! If someone showed you their HTC phone at arm's length without the screen turned on I reckon most people would struggle to recognise which HTC it is... And that is a BIG problem for them... Totally uninspiring - and no memory card slot? With all that HD content / Beats music etc.? RIDICULOUS. And let's not think for a moment 'cloud' storage is the answer - storage that will cost you money in data charges to access AND require internet connection - imagine how quick your battery would drain trying to stream stuff from the cloud...

  • Unfortunately, devices with Tegra 3(HTC Edge & HTC Zeta) will probably be announced on MWC 2012, not CES 2012. Too bad, I was really hoping that I will get this device soon. BTW, some people say that Gorilla Glass 2 will be announced on CES 2012. Could this device have it?

  • Wooo what a phone

  • ......will decides whether to go for galaxy s3 or htc zeta if released practically on time as plan.

  • why worry about memory slot, U can easily buy/rented cloud store like Nokia lumias. this fone is a real super fone currently to be available, 99% certain (though unofficial yet).

  • if they release this phone in near future he will beat all others,it has killer specs!i hope i will buy it

  • i waited so long to see this phone has been release i am right now in the market to see this machine hTC please release this phone before the end of 1st quarter

  • This ph is having all the good stuff other than expandable memory......no good without it

  • when should this phone be released??

  • I really like this phone but no memory card slot, not good. I´m wondering if HTC will make the same handset but a bit smaller like the Sensation, which you can carry it in your pocket. The front facing camera´s improvement is a good thing.

  • Must have an sd card for me, if the phone first up in smoke or water damage etc, I don't want to lose my files & pics.

  • Hey!! Just now saw the Edge and left gasping....now you tell me that is housing a 2.5 GHz quad-core?!

  • It could be a fantastic smart phone, but with 1830 mAh of battery I don't think so! Now the question is, who will be the first with a Quad Core smart phone? HTC or Samsung? :D

  • It looks amazing, No memory card slot doesnt't keep people away from the iphone, only really need one if it has less then 16gb of storage

  • I agree for the card and don't care for the battery.

  • Awesome specs... This will be a benchmark for the mobile industry.. cannt wait to hear the official release..

  • For the sake of god, a Quad-core mobile? i guess it's time to change my laptop!!!!

  • A fone without memory card slot and non-replaceable battery always keep customers away......

  • yes i agree it needs a memory card slot.

  • Anyone got anything solid about the microSD slot? read quite a few sources, some say it does some say it doesn't if this has microSD included it'll be an ultimate phone.

  • It's very sad that the phone doesn't have a card slot. I think that's a big "-"

  • Yeaaah... Sure, quad-core Processor. LOL It wouldn't last 1 hour with a 2000mAh battery

  • sony experia handset is very smart phone and touch with very soft

  • Don't you guys understand the way quad-processors work?? While you are surfing the web, only one core works. while you are watching a video, two cores turns on. while you are playing games, the third or fourth core turns on. So, basicly, it is just like a one core smartphone, but a more powerful!

  • Looks exactly like its supposed to look. All screen, very thin borders. Too bad for the 4 soft-buttons... they should have gone for the hard ones. Being at the bottom of the display like this means 1000000 accidental pushes...

  • Thickness is not issue whatsoever. It's the width of the phone that determines how well a phone fits in the hand. The zeta is as small as the nexus one. It will be a beast!

  • quad core with 2.5 GHrz processor, unbelievable #@% woh ! It needs atlest 6000 AMh battery/ 1 horse power diesel engine generator ? to run this fone.

  • Sad thing is, this battery-chugging behemoth is most likely just a concept phone. Although, if HTC do as much as make a few subtle nods and nudges towards Zeta, maybe even announcing what type of GPU they would like to use at the upcoming Q1 2012 cons, I know what I will be buying come 2012 along with an extended battery.

  • PATHETIC. First off, it's gonna be REALLY REALLY thick. Secondly, The Quad Core is gonna eat the battery. Give it a 3000 MAH? And last but not least, The screen sucks and its angle viewing is gonna kill it.

  • it's changable!!!

  • 2.5Ghz Quad core!! WTF!!!! it's gonna more powerful than a pc!!!

  • Picture is not important...it's the specs those are of the chart!

  • 2.5 gigz super fast processor

  • Man, thats one of a spec for a mobile ...

  • oh my gosh if this phone really comes up, it will beat even the ipad 2 or whatever!!!

  • The apq is for tablets or ultabooks, and the picture is fake as Ice cream sandwich does not have hardware buttons on the bottom

  • wow wow thats prefect it,s the best i can,t hear it

  • The battery life is 100% INCORRECT, you going to need 4x the amount of 1830mah to power up 4 cores. And if its that slim its going to overheat. But then again Ps Vita pulled it off.

  • Qurd....what is it possible it a fake

  • Dafuq is this ? There's no way this thing will have a quad... no way.

  • All current indications show this to be a concept phone and not an actual project.

  • it's fake smart phone

  • Well there are two options. The HTC Zeta photo is fake, or the specs are not accurate, because I made some measurements, and if this is the real photo, and the phone height is really 109.8mm, then the display is only 4.3 inches. If the display is really 4.5 inches on this photo, then the given size specs on the phone are wrong, the lenght should be at least 116 mm

  • Why not a memory card slot? That would really be something. 32 gb internal, thats just iphone like....htc needs to beat that, thoroughly. 64 gb should be the new standard.

  • As all the Smartphone of hTC say Incerdible S, Sensation, etc has a low voice when on call ... hope to improve that too.. .. '

  • Now we hav a winner..this screen is better,brighter,and smoother than the apple's retina screen

  • Think battery can be improved :)

  • Atually it is Read... And IT WILL BE AWSOME... don't know about battery life though...

  • When...

  • full phone......

  • Just perfect!

  • I really like this phone...if it will be made..it will mark the begining of a new era...quad CPUs and HD display..it will have the impact that it had HD2 at his time..when iPhones were struggling with 320 x 480 display resolution :). And I would like to say one more thing. I'm amused by the ignorance of a lot of people when they are discusing about the "magical" number of ppi of the iPhone 4 (or 4s) as this is no matched. They're not understanding that ppi is related to the surface of the display and iPhone has the tiniest display from all the leading smarphones, with 3.5'' diagonal. With its resolution, if compared with a not so tiny display..3.7'' - 4 - 4.3'' the ppi will drop dramatically and there will be no "magic" and "amazing" Retina anymore...that's the reason that they are keeping the 3.5'' diagonal and not increasing it..not because "it will be too big" or "it's enough for anyone" or another stupid excuse that they are throwing into the market. Personally, (when it comes to similar resolutions, of course) i will always prefer a 4.3'' diagonal over a 3.5'' even the display has a lower ppi due to this fact!

  • Awsome!! However, is it me? I don't see anything about LTE! Shouldn't a high end phone like this run on the new LTE platform?

  • Definitely, lacks of battery capacity and RAM, everything else is absolutely amazing! Today's phones are at least two times better than my personal computer in GHz and RAM

  • This is very very very very good phone! I very very very love htc.

  • Wow super resolution and feauters.I don't like touchscreens but this WOW.I like Nokia,i use Nokia but this is overwhelming for Nokia.

  • for a quad core 2.5 gigs processor, even 2500mAh won't be enough.... It should be made 3500+

  • seeeeeeeeee ma fone in display hw ist lok likeeee budyyyyyy ??????

  • i think this cpu would kill the batery less than 1h , i dont think this gonna work....

  • Heh Nokia N8 !! What a good Phone !!! Nokia N8 in The Best Joke Against This Phone !

  • and nfc

  • and nfc

  • Samsung and HTC are the best. No one can compete with them, this is my opinion.

  • no iphone 4s is the best phone apple resolution is much better than nokia ok

  • It's not even announced yet. I don't understand you people! Wait till the announcement, and then ask your questions. I think that they are smart enough to not make it without Gorilla Glass display :P

  • Nokia N8 is the best phone?? Are you kidding? The N8 has 2 years old features and you call it the best phone. :P It's camera is good, but not the best, and as I know it lacks a Video light feature. :P How can you make videos in dark conditions?? By the way, this is NOT the N8 forum...

  • wow wow wow this is my hero

  • If Be 2GB RAM or More and the Battery Must Be Bigger ...

  • I think you are sleeping.... Getup and wash your face. You may realize the world around you.

  • So tell me, how is your precious N8 still the "best phone" on the planet with 256MB RAM, Symbian^3 OS, 680 MHz ARM 11 processor? I think you feel butthurt, and this is how you are trying to compensate. But, whatever makes you sleep at night, brother.

  • Nokia n8 is still the worst phone in the planet !!!!

  • With this kind of battery having quad cores at 2.5Ghz, holy crap on a cracker!!! the battery will only last 8-10Hrs... make it 2500

  • Nokia n8 is still the best phone in the planet,:)

  • Nokia n8 is still the best phone in the planet,:) Nokia n8 is still the best phone in the planet,:)Nokia n8 is still the best phone in the planet,:)Nokia n8 is still the best phone in the planet,:)Nokia n8 is still the best phone in the planet,:)Nokia n8 is still the best phone in the planet,:)

  • If this has 4G LTE support and micro sd card slot i'm definitely wanting it

  • The iPhone 4 and 4S have a PPI of 330. It's very nearly there, but what the hell there will be more clearer phones out very soon. :)

  • with those monster spec's..wishing 2GB RAM and Double caps battery will be Great..

  • I agree the dimensions seem dubious. Then again it's too early and things may change later on.

  • sorry but the dimension error

  • Its amazing phone Quad-core 2.5 GHz and 4.5 inches (~326 ppi pixel) very gooood phone.

  • I like this phone because it and seen a 2.5GHz processor with both internal 32GB 1GB ram and the best operating system android 4.0 ice cream sandwich

  • At least there's a new design from HTC.

  • Why no gorilla glass ?

  • Hi! I don't really understand why you told me this. I don't said anything against hardware and Software. I agree with you that the hardware and software are very important.

  • I like it.i like htcO:-)O:-)

  • O.o WOW!!

  • This will bridge the gap between PC and smartphone. dual cores is one thing but quad will allow application makers to make on par desktop applications for these things. no more APPS just applications. real applications with full features by big companies. but the reality of that happening next year is slim to non. unless people are already working on this. but i doubt it.

  • but it's not made by apple so we have a problem with it (is that the kind of response you were expecting?) lol sheesh

  • To all of you apple fanboys & girls, if this phone was made by apple, none of you would have a problem with the power of this phone CPU.

  • The cpu is not made by Qualcomm, read the specifications pal!!!!!

  • seriously i want to buy it....

  • Zzzzzzzz, hohum. so it's a powerful phone, so what? it runs on Android and the Android market is full of unusable apps.

  • nic......but..i.Expected....from.......htc......­..memory.card....slot........or.........64..gb..­....storage.....with.......this.....phone.....

  • i has the same ppi as iphone 4 or 4s . . .

  • awesome phone and specs, it's time for a pc and xbox games emulator on this monster

  • Dear all! Observe the reality, it has 2.5Ghz quad core proc. It is not design for wht it handle or not. More the proc. more the speed to operate difrent tasks. And there is big competition in market for the awsome nd new features. So they made it.

  • Two much power for no reason, developers and applications need a long time to be able to utilize that power....

  • if this is the real thing, i'm gonna love it.

  • no Gorilla Glass Display , it will easy break like iPhone

  • No card slot?

  • First hardware then its software comes. Soon there will some games come.

  • $$$$Battery can be improved$$$$

  • this design is.... marvelous! such a big screen and just 109mm height. just perfect for 2012. standard, for 2013, i hope.

  • FAKE FAKE FAKE! Qualcomm just announced today that their upcoming processors are only up to 1.7ghz. Even than design is obviously FAKE because the bezel is to thin for your hand to hold without accidentally touching the screen.

  • HTC is my dream

  • 1000 euro is the price of an unlocked iPhone in my country. Of course I wouldn't buy either of them.

  • is just a fake =))

  • Quad core processor might not be such a bad idea in a phone. You could underclockit and than potentially save batery...just a thought.

  • Perfection. This is a dream. I don't think this is real though. They wont make this to soon.

  • I agree with you, Laptops and computers have such a powerful CPU, and a Quad Core is useless on a phone. Dual Core can handle EVERYTHING. There are no games which need Quad Core on Earth! Dual Core can handle Starcraft 2, can handle Crysis 2, or other games as well. HTC wants to show their intelligence, and wants to be the first with a Quad Core. :D A Quad Core phone needs a great battery as well... This phone will be very expensive, around 1000 Euro.

  • Is it mistake or it has 2.5 GHZ quad-core processor.it is monster!!!

  • laptops used to have this much power and they had huge batteries but a 1830 miliaper is like an AA battery

  • Perfect

  • This is beautiful. Gee!

  • It's too early, wait more, because we don't know the whole specs yet. Maybe that this is only a prototype. I suppose that it will have a Gorilla Glass display. They are not fool to make a super phone without Gorilla Glass. About the internal memory we can't be sure as well. Maybe that this will support a memory card, up to 64 GB(as I said earlier). Many smart phones can support 64 GB of SDXC cards. And if this will not support a memory card slot, then what's the problem? 32 GB isn't enough for you?

  • So yhere are 10 GHz in total :O!?

  • This is only prototype!

  • No card slot? Is this beast has gorilla glass?

  • It is possible. You can see it's almost screen in front. I like it.

  • Well at least they're going head to head with the galaxy nexus prime on th OS. But having that much core power? It will probably drain the battery dry in an hour and half on standby and 30 mins on talk. If HTC will pursue with this design, they better juice up the battery. On top of that, hopefully, it's not going to be internal.

  • The specs on this phone is really awesome I must admit!But for heavens sake what sort of speed are they hope to get? Superman or the flash might have a hard time keeping up!:D

  • dear in this rumor please check that 109.8mm is less than 4.5 inches lcd.

  • Stupidiy, why am i saying this? because what would you do with that quad core 2.5 ghz in your hands? at the end of the day, we know that mobiles were invented just to have conversations with our friends or relatives who are far away and shorten the gap of communication. its just that people want more powerful phones in their hands. rubbish, the excitment and zeal to play powerful and action games can only be witness on ps3 and or on our high end laptop.

  • You are right, but you can't change them. I think that Dual Core is more than enough, and Dual Core CAN handle any games, any application easily. In the years of 2007, 2008, 2009 the "fight" was about the camera. In 2011 the "fight" is about the CPU, screen, Ram, internal memory.

  • lol, Quad Core for a phone...and 2.5 ghz at that. What is the use for that much power for a smart cell phone? That much power will require a really massive battery or else it will only be useful for like 1 hour. Really, what is the need for that much power. Its a cell phone, mostly going to be used for calls and internet browsing.

  • Holy 4 core CPU . amazing that is da best phone ever .

  • Begin of n era

  • It`s the most powerful smartphone that i ever seen.It could be the revolution in the smartphone world.HTC is the best.

  • ok, now tell me..what do you do with a Quad-core 2.5 GHz processor?

  • HTC 2.5 Ghtz ufffff ,are they are mad ,wats the use of all this.,Android ...Android ....Android everywhere nowdays,even i also spent huge amount on Androids handsets,but they dont even have a nice applications ,90 out of 100 applications are crap .

  • simply outstanding.

  • hw does the 4.5 inch screen fit in its small dimensions...???

  • 8 MP camera is enough, if has a good sensor. Quality is important, not the MP. A 5 MP camera with a good sensor can take better pictures than a camera with 8 MP.

  • I am glad that HTC is focusing at making smart phones with big internal storage, but why this not have a micro SD slot? Android should not copy Iphone. Just imagine if this could support a SDXC card up to 64 GB! It would be fantastic! By the way 1830 mah isn't enough!! Please HTC put a 2500 Mah of battery.

  • Lol, right. Plus the ginger bread's keys on Icecream sandwich 4.0 :D

  • My God, what a mind blowing smart phone!! They are GOOD!!

  • no prospective views... "it appears like a photoshop student project"

  • The question is... why bother?

  • Best specs with Best BEATS!

  • Excellent narrow screen design: 84%/area!!

  • Excelent narrow screen design!!

  • All those specs and still: 8 MP, 3264x2448 pixels, autofocus, dual-LED flash LOL

  • looks sexy and specs are iphone killer. waiting for more details.

  • I want this phone!!!

  • i swear it's stronger than my pc !! now we r in the quad core season

  • Wow ... IT Has a MonsTer Specs.

  • Yowza! Its even stronger than my PC!

  • w0w
