I wonder how soon before we see 5" as the required screen size for high-end handsets?

But 768 Mb RAM is really last years specification.

I get the impression this isn't meant to be a high-end phone, just a big music phone.

I was really hoping we would see the Vigor today, but I guess it was a long shot for a UK event.

Not bashing my HTC Team, but 4.7 is way too big. 4.5 will be pushing it, but if you are going to go with 4.7, why not just lug around a tablet.......What size battery will this monster need to keep the screen lit? HTC put the one of the smallest batteries (1400 mah) in the Thunderbolt, and then graced it with LTE, and it zipped through that battery very rapidly.....---just don't know about the size.......probably will have a small amplifier inside for them beats--for a even more faster battery drain!!!!

Heavy processor. Lame RAM.

Let´s see how this benchmark against my GS2

1.5 dual core, with 768 mb of ram....Heck the Thunberolt has those specs released in March, with single core. HTC is losing it's ground with this one, unless you are going to buy it for size only........This thing is lacking PUNCH!!!!!!...

If I were Dr. Dre-- I would have a minimum specificiation in order for Beats Audio to be on ANY Android phone....
Minimums would be 1gb Ram, 1ghz dual core and above, 1800 mah battery, LTE, gorilla glass, 4.0-4.3 screen size and super amoled display or better....If he doesn't then "them Beats: will be on every cheap Android in the future with no distinction.....

I don't think HTC cares any more because they are going to keep selling phones regardless. How long have have we been complaining about their batteries?? I know for me...ever since Windows Mobile days...and they aren't getting better at all. Their solution? Turn your phone into a big brick on your hip by strapping on one of those huge humpback 3200mah battery packs.

Damn totally ruin it... ! i want 720p screen and at least 1 gig of ram on it then i'm all set
4.7' doesnt look that big because its bezel is so small so im okay with this

in case anyone missed it - this is just the WP flagship Titan repacked for Android. But while WP is designed to run on single core, I understand anyone who isn't high on these specs for Android. Overall, the Titan will be smooth and enjoyable, but there are any number of HTC, Motorola, Samsung or even LG's that are way more desearving of your money.

WVGA on a 4.7 inch screen is terrible
