HTC has jumped into a new segment, pioneered by Samsung – 5-inch mobile phones aka phablets. The company has recently unveiled J butterfly in Japan.
It was previously a rumor that HTC is turning up to announce a 5-inch Android Phablet. But this is not a rumor, HTC officially announced it in Japan today. The phone features a giant 5 inch Super LCD 3 display with a jaw dropping resolution of 1920x1080p. Fast Fact: This is the max resolution of a HDTV.
