The first pictures of the HTC Bliss, the smartphone that leaked back in May, have just surfaced and reveal the so-called “women-centric” phone.

Although additional information about the HTC Bliss has yet to be revealed, the pictures published by the guys over at XDA.cn prove that the phone is indeed real.

Taiwanese handset manufacturer is allegedly building a mid-budget Android smartphone aimed at female customers.

While the phone is expected to be announced by the end of the year, no release time frame has been revealed yet.

Details about the device's hardware configuration are a bit scarce, but we know that the HTC Bliss will be equipped with a single core 800MHz Qualcomm MSM7630 processor, complemented by an Adreno 205 (GPU).

In addition, it appears that the Bliss will be delivered with Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread on board and HTC Sense 3.5 user interface on top.

The upcoming version of HTC Sense has yet to be announced by the Taiwanese handset manufacturer.

However, the strong point of the HTC Bliss is the fact that it will be delivered with a set of accessories meant to raise its desirability among women.

As rumors suggest, the Bliss will also be available in more flavors, including greenish hue, pink and blue.

It is not clear whether these accessories will be part of the phone's sales package or they are sold separately.

Among these accessories that will be available with the upcoming HTC Bliss, we learned about a wireless charging dock with built-in speakers, a square-shaped speaker that supports voice recognition, as well as a certain 'charm indicator'.

The 'charm indicator' lights up every time the user receives a message or misses a call, much like a notification LED.

The latest hearsay suggests that the HTC Bliss will be exclusively launched at Verizon Wireless in United States, but it may be released in Europe as well, soon afterwards.
