HTC Butterfly s revealed: 1.9GHz Snapdragon 600 processor, UltraPixel camera sensor (video)

HTC Butterfly s revealed 19GHz Snapdragon 600 processor, UltraPixel camera sensor video

HTC’s just pulled back the proverbial curtains on the Butterfly s at its Taiwan launch event. It’ll arrive boasting a familiar-sounding 5-inch 1080p display, front-facing BoomSound stereo speakers and Sense 5 as expected. When it comes to internals, the Butterfly s runs Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean on a quad-core 1.9GHz Snapdragon 600 (faster than the HTC One), an impressive 3,200mAh battery, quad-band HSPA/WCDMA radio, 2GB of RAM and 16GB of built-in storage, expandable once again through microSD. As for imaging, alongside that primary UltraPixel camera and Zoe software features, there’s a 2.1-megapixel wide-angle shooter on the front. It’s currently scheduled for a July release in Taiwan, accompanied by a NT $22,900 (roughly $766) price tag, but there’s no word when (or even if) it’ll reach foreign shores.

Update: Our Chinese sister site just spent some hands-on time with the device. Check out their first impressions right here. We’ve also added an official video and press release right after the break.
