HTC promises to revolutionize the mobile phone concept on the 5th of June, through an invitation that will be released at a press event on that date.

Apple's iPhone is thought to be launched on the 20th of June, which makes HTC's announcement just precede the release of the most highly expected mobile phone. HTC has surely taken this into account, which means that they have high plans and that they feel little threat coming from Apple's phone.

HTC is set to make "a major announcement". All we have to state our arguments on, right now, is the picture of the invite, with a highly futuristic design. In it, a woman touches the number 5 with an expression suggesting her waiting for a new discovery. Even more, the sense of touch is emphasized, letting us hope for a revolutionary smartphone that has as a distinguishing feature a touch screen capable of the highest performances.

As to sustain all these arguments, HTC brings one more statement that raises the hopes for having a real competitor for the iPhone. The company has said that the announcement "heralds a new mobile experience that will change the way we use and control our phones". That's a big promise for a new mobile phone landmark coming from HTC.

The company has built a mystical sensation about the way the device which is about to be launched is supposed to be like. This will most probably set the ground for speculations. Even more, if the phone that HTC is about to present is as good as everyone thinks it will, it might very well cast a shadow on Apple's launch of the iPhone.

The big event where HTC promises to start a new mobile phone era has been scheduled for the 5th of June and will take place in London, at 11:30 AM.
