Might be delayed to May

One of the yet unannounced but long rumored mobile phones that will land at Verizon Wireless in the near future is the HTC Incredible, which has just emerged into the wild in a series of new photos. As the images with the device show, it might not be too long before Verizon and HTC decide to go all official with it, but there are still no details on when that might actually happen.

Moreover, exact info on the name the handset will sport when released on the market lack as well. However, we can have now a closer look at the phone, which emerged with red accents that suggest Verizon is indeed the targeted carrier, though it might land on the market with a different dressing than the one seen here. However, in case the device arrives as it is now, users will certainly enjoy those red buttons, possibly coupled with a red back cover as well.

Interestingly enough, rumor has it that the HTC Incredible is set to make an appearance on Verizon's offering along with Nexus One, and it seems that both of them got delayed already. Nexus One reportedly has some issues with its touchscreen display, and Verizon pushed the launch back until those problems are fixed. And since the HTC Incredible is said to include the same touchscreen as Nexus One, it makes sense for Big Red to delay both launches.

Most of you might be already accustomed with Verizon's testing process when it comes to new devices or new software, which usually results in handsets that do not meet its expectations to be delayed. This means that both HTC Incredible and Nexus One are put on hold until Big Red is satisfied with them, at least this is what Phone Arena notes.

The Nexus One by HTC has been already rumored to arrive at Verizon sometime on March 23, and, since enthusiasts are certainly waiting for it to hit the shelves, we can only keep our fingers crossed for that to happen. In the mean time, you can take a look at the new photos with HTC Incredible, which were published on phandroid.
