HTC is not ready to settle down and they have released quite a few very good looking mobile devices in recent times. Their recent range of handsets have all been very gorgeous except the HTC Dream or T Mobile G1 which is an ugly device to say the least even though Google designed it.

HTC has now launched HTC MAX 4G which is the world’s first GSM/WiMax mobile device. It as almost as good looking as HTC HD while this phone will only be available in selected markets where 4G is deployed by the telecom companies. A closer look at the specs is enough to shut our plans of buying any other mobile phone this festive season. The irony however is that HTC MAX 4G will only be sold in the Yota WiMax network in Russia.

As I mentioned before, the recent offerings by HTC have been delicious under the Touch range of touch-screen handsets. It won’t be uneducated to say that HTC is one company which seems to be the most charged after the Apple iPhone launch.
