HTC announces HTC MAX 4G world’s first GSM / WiMAX smartphone
HTC has announced its first WiMAX enabled phone which marks HTC strength and innovation beyond words. HTC MAX 4G is world’s first integrated GSM WiMAX phone, this makes it the world’s first Windows Mobile 6.1 powered WiMAX phone.
HTC MAX 4G is powered by Qualcomm ESM7206A 528 MHz processor. With just superb WiMAX capability it also includes Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity. HTC MAX 4G has a 3.8″ TFT-LCD flat touch-sensitive screen which supports 480 x 800 WVGA resolution. In terms of speed the MAX 4G can give a data speed of 70Mb/sec (symmetric).
In addition to 5 megapixel high-resolution camera with auto focus feature, HTC MAX contains a motion G-sensor and a proximity sensor for saving energy (while talking display is automatically switched off). HTC MAX 4G can make voice calls over most GSM networks but when the subscriber comes within range of WiMAX network, the HTC MAX amazingly routes the call through the WiMAX data network as a VoIP call. Battery can stay you connected up to 420 minutes while for VoIP it contains up to 230 minutes.
HTC MAX 4G would be a highly desirable with these killer specifications but sadly the phone will be available only in Russia market and we have to wait for the price until it starts shipping.

I watched one of the videos (though it was in Russian and I didn’t understand much) adn it looked quite smooth for a Windows Mobile powered device. You could watch TV many channels on it and it looked pretty good. I don’t think you can do that on 3G networks, at least not at that speed and video quality. WiMAX is a winner when it comes to wireless video applications.
