The HTC Rezound Android smartphone launched on the Verizon Wireless 4G LTE platform in mid-November of last year, and delivered the Beats by Dr. Dre audio application for the first time to a handset in the US. HTC purchased a controlling interest in the Beats by Dr. Dre audio software, and an HTC Rezound purchase also includes a set of Beats ear buds with built-in remote control and hands-free mic. And while that sound system is one of the best offered in the entire 4G smartphone marketplace, and has received most of the hype for this phone, the overall feature set compares favorably to the top performers in the 4G smartphone marketplace.

With one of the fastest processors of all 4G smartphones, a display with high-end resolution, and 8.0 megapixel camcorder that provides video capture at 1080P HD, the HTC Rezound Android handset has possibly the best overall feature set of any 4G smartphone. Well, the HTC Rezound just became even more attractive to Android smartphone shoppers. Verizon recently announced the availability of the HTC Rezound for $79 with a standard two-year activation and data plan when purchased through Amazon.
The HTC Rezound arrives in familiar smartphone form factor, as a black, rectangular slab average in size and slightly heavier than most 4G smartphones. The handset weighs 6.00 ounces (170 g) and measures 5.08 x 2.58 x 0.54 inches (129 x 65.5 x 13.65 mm). The high-end resolution mentioned earlier is delivered at a pixel density of 342 pixels per inch, one of the best of all smartphones, on the 4.30 inch S–LCD screen. That results in an overall display resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels. The capacitive, multitouch display also has standard light and proximity sensors built in.
A Qualcomm Adreno 220 graphics processor joins a dual core Qualcomm central processor clocked at 1.5 GHz in the Qualcomm MSM8660 microchip package. 1.0 GB of RAM memory is also on board, and joins 16 GB of built-in storage in the hardware profile. The 8.0 megapixel camcorder mentioned earlier comes equipped with a dual LED flash, and offers autofocus, white balance, ISO control, geo-tagging, preloaded scenes and special effects features. That rear facing camcorder provides video capture at 1080P HD resolution. A front facing 2.0 megapixel chat cam also provides video call support. Wireless connectivity is offered by both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi access, and all major Messaging and Email formats are supported. Buy the HTC Rezound starting at $79.99.
