Today, HTC Corporation went official with the availability of HTC EVO 3D in Europe, promising a glasses-free 3D experience to users outside the United States as well.

The new device was unveiled to the world a few months ago, when HTC announced its release on the US market via wireless carrier Sprint, and already hit the shelves at this operator.

Today, however, HTC announced that European users interested in enjoying 3D content while on the go will be able to do so on EVO 3D starting with the next month, when it is released in various countries on the old continent.

The stylishly rugged HTC EVO 3D will arrive on shelves with the HTC Sense UI on top, with the ability to record and playback 3D content, and with the HTC Watch application packed inside.

“Smartphones have revolutionised how people communicate and entertain themselves on the move. You can now carry your favourite films, music, photos and games in your pocket wherever you go,” said Florian Seiche, president of HTC EMEA.

“The HTC EVO 3D allows people to explore this new technology trend beyond the living room, enabling them to capture and share their lives with family and friends in amazing 3D.”

The new mobile phone comes with a large 4.3-inch stereoscopic display that does not require the use of 3D glasses for viewing 3D content.

Not to mention that, the same as its US counterpart, the European HTC EVO 3D can record 3D content courtesy of its dual 5-megapixel cameras packed on the back. The handset can record HD (720p) 3D videos, as well as high-definition 2D content.

The specifications list of this mobile phone also includes a dual-core 1.2GHz application processor, which is complemented by 1GB of RAM, 1GB of internal memory, and a microSD memory card slot with support for additional storage space.

The handset also comes with WiFi connectivity, as well as with Bluetooth 3.0, built-in GPS receiver, DLNA, MHL port for USB and HDMI connectivity, and a 1730mAh battery inside.

Powered by Google's Android 2.3 Gingerbread operating system, the new device also comes with the latest HTC Sense experience, 3D menus, and more. It also supports various Google Mobile Services, and offers access to the Android Market, for downloading and installing applications.

“Plunge into 3D menus and customise the active lockscreen, which becomes a real-time window to your most important content - from photos to your latest social network feeds,” HTC notes.

“Whether it's email, social networking or surfing the internet, the active lockscreen becomes a customizable gateway that lets you instantly jump to your favourite applications with just one gesture. HTC's iconic Weather app also returns, letting you soar through the clouds and bask in the sun, with beautiful, new full-screen 3D animations.”
