Today, Taiwan-based mobile phone maker HTC Corporation announced officially during a press event held in London the launch of a new handset based on Google's Android operating system, the HTC Desire HD.

Just as expected, the new mobile phone is nothing else than a HTC EVO 4G aimed at being marketed outside the United States, bringing forth all of the high-end features that one might have expected from such a device.

The new HTC Desire HD comes to the market with a 4.3-inch LCD touchscreen display, the same as its US counterpart, the mobile phone maker announced.

The new mobile phone is powered by a 1GHz 8255 Qualcomm Snapdragon application processor, which should offer enhanced performance levels to its users, that's for sure.

The specifications list of the new device should also include an 8-megapixel photo snapper with dual-LED flash and 720p video recording capabilities, a recent article on Engadget notes.

Moreover, the Android-based behemoth is expected to land on the market with HSPA+ and 802.11n Wi-Fi connectivity options, as well as with Dolby Mobile, it seems.

According to the leading handset vendor, it should start shipping the new Android-based HTC Desire HD to the market in Europe and Asia sometime during the next month.

On top of that, the mobile phone maker announced that the upcoming HTC Desire HD smartphone would be the first of its new devices to sport a new, enhanced HTC Sense user experience.

For what it's worth, it seems that all that we might have been expecting to receive with the new HTC Desire HD is there, and that the Taiwanese company might have even announced a little more than that.

Of course, it still remains to be seen what the new Sense solution on Desire HD is all about, and what it would be able to offer to users when compared to the previous version of the solution, but things already look promising.
