64-bit smartphones are already a reality with the iPhone 5s while several manufacturers are competing to be the first to bring a 64-bit Android to market. HTC might claim that title with the mid-range Desire 820. The phone has been officially confirmed via the HTC Weibo account though details are very scarce – all the teaser images really say is “64-bit” and “September 4”. The first image lists off the HTC firsts – first Android phone, first 1080p phone, first f/2.0 camera aperture and so on.
HTC Corp. played it a bit conservative with the HTC One M8’s hardware spec, opting for only modest updates of its high-end flagship, and in some cases scaling its capabilities back from the previous year (for example, dropping the optical image stabilization package). In the mid-range, though, were HTC has for some time expressed its largest interest in, the Taiwanese phonemaker appears poised to flex a bit of its muscle, adopting a bleeding edge spec. The HTC Desire 820, the successor to February’s HTC Desire 816, brings a major boost in both core count and processor architecture over its Snapdragon 400 powered predecessor. The caption of HTC’s teaser, posted by the company’s official account on Chinese microblogging service Weibo, suggests a September 4th unveil — a date which would put it just before the IFA 2014 (Sept. 5-10th) mobile electronics trade show in Berlin, Germany.
