Canadian mobile phone users should soon have the possibility to enjoy a new high-end mobile phone on the airwaves of TELUS in the country, namely the HTC Desire HD, which has just passed through the FCC.

The handset is already available in a range of markets around the world, with more of them set to receive it soon, and it seems that Canada will also be among those countries to enjoy the capabilities of HTC's latest flagship device.

Some of the latest news around the world show that an LTE-capable version of this mobile phone is headed for Verizon Wireless in the United States.

As for the HTC Desire HD set to arrive in Canada on the airwaves of TELUS, we should note that it comes with support for North American 3G bands, while being powered by Google's Android 2.2 Froyo operating system.

All of the appealing features that already made the Desire HD a popular smartphone in various countries around the world are there as well.

For those out of the loop, we should note that the specs list of this device includes a 1GHz Snapdragon processor from Qualcomm (the new generation, we might add), along with a large 4.3-inch touchscreen display that offers an impressive experience when viewing videos, browsing the Internet, or playing games.

On the back, Desire HD packs an 8-megapixel photo snapper with 720p video recording capabilities. All the usual connectivity options are included into the mix as well, along with some other features more.

The handset that passed through FCC's hallways packs support for WCDMA Bands II and V, which would make it fit for the networks operated by AT&T, Bell, Telus, and Rogers, as Engadget notes in a recent article.

Apparently, the likeliest destination for this phone would be TELUS, as a branded Desire HD, running on the carrier's network, was already spotted into the wild, BGR reports. Hopefully, more info on this will emerge soon, so stay tuned to learn the news.
