HTC Butterfly officially official

HTC Droid DNA (or that’s HTC J Butteryfly) finally got its international counterpart in the form of HTC Butterfly — and we tought it will be called HTC Deluxe (DLX). As you know from our previous posts, this is the best phone HTC has made thus far with its specs including a 5-inch full HD Super LCD 3 screen with Gorilla Glass 2, Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 quad-core CPU clocked at 1.5GHz, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of internal memory, 8-megapixel rear camera, 2.1-megapixel front-facing one, GPS + GLONASS, Beats Audio, Bluetooth 4.0, and so on and on. Android 4.1 Jelly Bean is running the show out of box, with HTC’s own Sense UI singing on top of it.

Unfortunately HTC failed to mention the price and release date and we’re a bit afraid the Butterfly won’t make it to the shops before the end of the year. Still, they could push couple of million (or hundreds of thousands) units to the major European markets. You never really know… but we’ll make sure to get back to you as soon as we hear something new on that front. Stay tuned…

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.

      Not without a digitising stylus or expandable memory. But it looks far better, the materials it’s built out of will be way more solid and high end, and Sense craps all over touchwhiz.
      I would love to replace my Note 2 with this if it wasn’t for the S pen which turns my phone into a mobile art studio…
