We’ve been telling you about HTC’s phablet in the past. The device has been officially announced in Japan where KDDI will sell it under the name of HTC J Butterfly (model number HTL21). In that sense, the phone comes as a beefed-up version of KDDI’s HTC J, which we know as the Japanese version of HTC One S.
Aside from the 5-inch, 440ppi full HD screen (Super LCD 3), the Butterfly rocks Qualcomm’s quad-core processor clocked at 1.5GHz, 2GB of RAM, 8-megapixel rear-facing camera, 2-megapixel front-facing one, 16GB of built-in storage, Bluetooth 4.0, NFC, LTE/HSPA+ and Wi-Fi connectivity, GPS and so on. It’s also worth noting that we’re talking about a global device, one that can work across different GSM networks around the world. Moreover, it’s a waterproof phone, rated at IPX5.
Interested Japanese will be able to grab the HTC J Butterfly at some point in December and we hope the rest of the world will get it at that time too…

In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
