The HTC Rezound brings the best of both wolrds - 4G LTE and a powerful 1.5GHz dual-core processor, but it's the Beats Audio support that truly makes it unique. The Rezound ships with a pair of red-cabled buds that let that bass reverberate right in your ears. In addition, the handset sports an 8-megapixel rear camera capable of recording 1080p videos.
