We've heard a lot of rumors swirling lately about
HTC releasing a
5-inch 1080P phone, and it looks like the first proof of this device's existence has just shown up in Japan. The
HTC One X's
SLCD 2 screen still holds the title in most people's minds as the best
smartphone screen on the market, but they seem to have outdone
themselves with the SLCD 3 on the J Butterfly. At 5 inches and a full
1080x1920 resolution, this screen produces a staggeringly high 440 ppi
(pixels per inch), much higher than any other display we've seen. If
HTC's previous screens are any indication, this is going to be a huge
step up in display technology going forward.
Moving along past the screen, the J Butterfly has a 1.5GHz quad-core
Snapdragon S4 Pro processor, 2GB of RAM, LTE, NFC and an 8MP camera. For
software, it is running Android 4.1 Jelly Bean with Sense 4+. It comes
in a flashy red, more subtle black and white varieties, and will be
released in Japan on
KDDI in December. Hopefully we'll see this device's counterparts show up outside of Japan soon as well.
