The holiday shopping season in general, and Black Friday in particular, usually offers some extremely attractive retail pricing on popular smartphones. Such is the case with online smartphone retailer Amazon Wireless discounting the HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE smartphone down to a nearly free retail price. That handset is offered for just one penny on contract at the Amazon wireless retail store, and it delivers NFC (Near Field Communications) wireless connectivity, above average battery performance, a dual core processor and simultaneous HD video and image capture.
The handset runs on the Verizon Wireless 4G LTE system that has been touted as the fastest and most dependable at delivering 4G speeds in the United States by independent reviewer RootMetrics. The Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0 Android operating system is present out-of-the-box, matching with the HTC Sense 4.0 user interface Android overlay. Measuring 4.82 x 2.40 x 0.46 inches (122 x 61 x 12 mm) and weighing 4.66 ounces (132 g), the HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE smartphone is smaller and lighter than the average 4G LTE capable mobile handset.
The large 4.0 inch screen is protected by a scratch resistant layer of Corning Gorilla Glass, and delivers video out options through DLNA wireless connectivity. Pixel density runs above average for a 4G smartphone, at 275 pixels per inch, delivering an overall screen resolution of 540 x 960 pixels. That S–LCD touchscreen accepts standard capacitive, multitouch gestures for device navigation, and helps conserve battery life with light and proximity sensors built into the screen.
The 9.57 hours of talk time generated from a single charge of the 1,700 mA battery on board the handset is approximately 20% better than what is offered by the average 4G smartphone, and a dual core 1.2 GHz Krait central processor joins an Adreno 225 graphics processor in the Qualcomm MSM8960 Snapdragon microchip set. 1.0 GB of RAM system memory is on board, as is 8.0 GB of built-in storage, with a microSD slot available for storage expansion.
The rear facing 8.0 megapixel camcorder provides the above-mentioned simultaneous HD video and image capture, recording video in 1,080 P HD resolution and 30 frames per second in stereo sound. A front facing 1.3 megapixel chat cam is also on board, and that front facing VGA quality snapper offers video call support. The HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE smartphone presents the full range Beats Audio sound system out-of-the-box, as well as a built-in music player and YouTube video player.
You can purchase the HTC Droid Incredible 4G for a reduced price now starting at $9.99.
