At the end of July T-Mobile finally made the sliding successor to the MyTouch 3G Slide and MyTouch 4G official and now it has set a release date with the phone due to go on sale July 27. The HTC made handset will offer users a familiar form factor but with some improved internal hardware and a full slideout QWERTY keyboard.
As well as some decent hardware the phone has a camera complete with zero lag shutter allowing for a photographic experience more akin to a dedicated device. In addition to zero lag the camera has a number of other features to improve the experience including a panoramic shot mode and HDR technology that will compensate for high contrast pictures.
This new addition to the MyTouch family features a dual-core 1.2GHz processor, 3.7" display and will come with Android 2.3 installed. As well as the 8mp zero lag camera on the rear there's a front-facing VGA camera which will allow for video calling through the Qik application.
The rest of the key specs have yet to be confirmed but there's a rumour the phone is also going to feature 768MB of RAM and an Adreno 220 GPU. Internal memory is an unknown but there's a microSD card slot for a potential 32GB storage.
The phone is due to go on sale July 27 for $199.99 on a two year contract, after a $50 mail-in rebate. For those who want to get in on the action early it will be available for pre-order online early next week on July 19. It looks set to be a sure fire hit as the MyTouch 4G slide is one of the carrier's most popular devices, plus it will have the distinction of being the first dual-core slider available from T-Mobile.
