Hands-on with HTC’s Amaze 4G for T-Mobile (video)

So how does HTC’s Amaze 4G stack as much as its European counterpart, the Sensation XE ? Pretty much actually. The 4.3-inch qHD smartphone also features Qualcomm’s 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon CPU, but bumps the RAM from 768MB to 1GB. Additionally it is HTC’s first NFC toting device and joins T-Mobile’s Galaxy S II because the other 42Mbps HSPA+ -capable handset on Little Magenta’s network. More noteworthy is its trick eight megapixel shooter, which features the identical backside-illuminated sensor, f2.2 wide-angle optics and 1080p video recording capability because the myTouch 4G Slide . Much of the camera software and functionality carries over from that phone, but new is the facility to take five shots, which the telephone automagically combines into one better shot. We also liked the addition of 2 physical camera buttons, one for stills and the opposite for video. First impressions of the Sense-laden , Gingerbread smartphone? It’s extremely just like a Sensation on steroids, with a certain T-Mobile flavor. Have a look at our gallery and hit the break for our hands-on video from Mobilize 2011 .
