First HTC Droid DNA promo video surfaces, touts "The Ultimate Smartphone"

HTC put everything it is capable of, and it is not little, into the latest surprise for the year, its Droid DNA behemoth just announced as a Verizon exclusive. The phone's main selling point is its large 5" edge-to-edge screen with Full HD resolution, the first of its kind with 440ppi pixel density, which should be a sight to behold.

Every major hardware and software improvement the company has come up with lately are also thrown in there, like Beats Audio and dedicated speaker amplifiers, wide-angle front camera, the ImageChip ISP and latest Sense 4+, plus HTC has wrapped it all up in a very thrilling promo video.

Being one of Verizon's DROID line, the DNA video strikes on the high-tech nature of the phone, but it is far from a clunky giant, since the chassis is very slim and elegant for this screen size. Have a gander at the promo video below, with the music eerily reminding of the Resident Evil franchise.
