HTC, the maker of the Android G1 handset, has just uncovered the world’s first 4G phone named HTC 4G that boasts speeds of up to 70 megabytes per second.
HTC 4G features a 3.8-inch touchscreen with 480×800 resolutions and runs Windows Mobile 6.1.Because of the high bandwidth opportunities, it offer high quality mobile TV to be streamed over the network and super-fast games, movies and maps are delivered to the handset.
WiMAX works the same way like Wi-Fi, however it covers a much larger area. Its 70Mb/s speed is applicable for handsets quite near to the source and the accurate speed figure is 10Mb/s over a 10Km range, still quite fast.
It also allows another 4G connected handset to be contacted with the VOIP over the network, as there is a deal with Scartel. It will also work with any SIM card in Russia as well.
Currently, WiMAx is being tested in the UK and it may become a large-scale deployment in the coming days.
However, no definite plans for a full scale roll out mean handsets like HTC MAX 4G is coming soon and the wired connections seem taking their last breath. If you want to save it , better start hiding that Ethernet now.
