Taiwanese smartphone and tablet maker HTC has unveiled its new Desire X smartphone at the IFA 2012 consumer electronics show, currently underway in Berlin. This device measures in at 118.5 x 62.3 x 9.3 mm and weighs 114 g.

It is powered by a snappy 1 GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processor and runs on Google’s Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) with HTC’s Sense 4.0a skin on top of it. Users have access to around 4 GB of internal storage, but can expand upon this (by up to 32 GB) via the device’s microSD memory card slot. In addition, you will also get a useful 25 GB of free online cloud-based storage from Dropbox.   

This smartphone also boasts a 4" (480 x 800; 233 ppi pixel density) Super LCD display, 768 MB RAM, a significant 1650 mAh battery, Wi-Fi 802.11 n, and Bluetooth 4.0 with aptX technology enabled. The latter enables a higher quality of Bluetooth Stereo audio, when you listen to music wirelessly over your Bluetooth-enabled speakers or headset.

Another feature that should boost the overall audio experience is integrated Beats Audio technology, which HTC asserts will deliver deep bass and a richer, more powerful speaker sound.
