In next year’s Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2012, Taiwanese mobile phone maker, HTC Corporation is likely to unveil a new quad-core Android-based tablet along with two new Android smartphones. At least this was what Commercial Times (a Chinese paper) claimed in a report published by the paper.
Commercial Times added that the quad-core Android tablet is expected to launch prior to the release of Microsoft’s Windows 8 operating system scheduled at the end of the third quarter of 2012.
On top of that, one of HTC’s two new Android phones will be also powered by a Nvidia quad-core chip. If that is the case, the HTC Edge smartphone which is tipped to run the NVIDIA’s new Tegra 3 quad-core processor, has the highest probability to be unveiled in Barcelona next year.
Meanwhile, the other smartphone could be the HTC Ville. BGR reported that the Android Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) smartphone shall features a 4.3-inch qHD screen display on a 1.5GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 chipset. Other features inclide refreshed HTC Sense 4.0 UI, an 8-megapixel camera with a backside-illuminated sensor and support for up to 1080p HD video recording, HSPA+, Beats Audio and a 1,650 mAh battery.
