HTC Desire Z Philippines : In-the-Flesh Video! Panels Check

HTC Desire Z is the company's flagship Android slider phone this year. It features a full QWERTY keyboard that slides out from underneath it's 3.7" capacitive display.



As promised, here's the short video that we took of HTC Desire Z in the flesh during its launch the other day --


Thanks for showing us the phone, Kayelyn!

A few notes --

1. HTC Desire Z's slide mechanism is similar to that of HTC Dream aka T-Mobile G1. The screen actually lifts from the body to reveal the keyboard.

2. Although it looks a lot like it, the phone's display is not AMOLED. It's called Super LCD or S-LCD. The resolution is 480 x 800 pixels.

3. Below the screen you will find a touch-sensitive trackpad, similar to what's found on new generation BlackBerry smartphones.

4. Desire Z packs a 5 MegaPixel camera with autofocus and LED flash. This camera also takes 720p High-Definition videos.

5. The phone runs Android OS, v2.2 (Froyo) with its Qualcomm MSM 7230 800 MHz processor

Again, as earlier disclosed by TP, HTC Desire Z is now out in the Philippines with a suggested retail price of PhP 32,000.
