HTC Myst rumored to be the next Facebook phone, details leak out
Share:
Details about the HTC Myst have just surfaced and while nothing is yet official, it seems that HTC might indeed be planning to release this phone with a dedicated Facebook button (hopefully, one could reprogram it later on). The company already has a history of making “Facebook phones” after it released the HTC ChaCha with a dedicated FB button.
The HTC Myst, previously known as the HTC Opera in rumor land, is a solid mid-ranger but nothing more. The Myst brings a 1.5GHz dual-core MSM8960 chip along with 1GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage (sadly, not expandable).
The 720p display at 4.3-inches works out to the impressive 341ppi, an excellent pixel density.
Not bad for a mid-ranger, but do we really need a “Facebook phone”? What do you think?

Agreed. I smell somthing fishy here. Ether it is a 4.3" display with 342 ppi or a 4.5" display with 326 ppi but you can not have a 720p screen at 320 ppi. At 1280x720 the screen would have to be 4.59" to acheve a ppi of 320. I thank that "phone" is just something that some one made up without doing the proper math. I dont see this phone as being real.

720p 4.3/4.5inch phone is actually what I want for a extra phone...Hopefully these specs are the new low/mid range android phones.
No sd card, no thank you though.

Specs are decent, but without expandable memory and a better camera (5MP? They could have done better), this phone pales in comparison to other mid-range and high-end phones. HTC's struggling with revenue and market share as it is, and this phone won't help them much, if at all.
And it doesn't help that it's a Facebook phone. The last one was a bomb, so what's to say this one won't be either?
