Verizon could launch a smaller HTC Thunderbolt (Mecha S)
By Florin on 26 May 11Before being officially announced, Verizon’s HTC Thunderbolt was known as HTC Mecha. So now that we’re hearing there is an Android-based HTC Mecha S in the making, we can only assume it’s some kind of a successor to the Thunderbolt.
PocketNow has managed to obtain the user agent profile of the Mecha S, which shows that the handset has a HVGA (320 x 480) display, CDMA connectivity (perfect for Verizon), and no hardware keyboard.
Since it’s an HVGA smartphone, the Mecha S may be a Thunderbolt Mini… or something alike.
The Mecha S / Thunderbolt Mini could feature 4G connectivity, too (like’s Sprint’s Samsung SPH-D600, which also has an HVGA display). If that’s the case, it will be Verizon’s first mid-end 4G handset. But let’s not anticipate.
