Mobile phone carrier AT&T is gearing up for the launch of new, highly appealing smartphones, and the recently leaked HTC Holiday is among them.

The device was not officially unveiled as of now, but some leaked info on it is available, courtesy of a leaked ROM that made an appearance into the wild recently via Chinese blog 911Sniper.

One of the most appealing features the new mobile phone would arrive on shelves with would be HSPA+/LTE connectivity, which would make it one of the most appealing devices in AT&T's offering when made available.

No info on the availability of this device emerged, but there are great chances that it would be included in the first batch of devices to run on the carrier's new LTE network.

The rest of this handset's specs are meant to impress even more, proving that AT&T's customers would indeed have great devices to enjoy on their operator's enhanced network.

The HTC Holiday should be powered by a 1.2GHz dual-core MSM8660 application processor from Qualcomm, complemented by 1GB of RAM.

Moreover, the new mobile phone would include a 4.5-inch touchscreen display, capable of delivering a qHD (540 x 960 pixel) resolution.

In addition to the said connectivity capabilities, the smartphone would also include Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n and Bluetooth 3.0. Most probably, 3.5mm headphone jack, along with built-in GPS receiver, and more, would also be included into the mix.

On the back, the mobile phone would sport dual eight-megapixel cameras, complemented by a 1.3-megapixel camera on the front, for video calling.

With 3D capabilities on board, the device would certainly prove a better handset than many other phones available at the moment on the US market.

The guys over at Pocketnow note in a recent article that the HTC Holiday is also expected to arrive on shelves with Google's Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread operating system on board.

As stated above, nothing has been confirmed on this device for the time being, and we should take these details with a grain of salt. Stay tuned to learn more on it.
