Incredible was created by HTC's proven recipe: the mix of two operating systems: Sense and Android 2.1, powerful processor and a proven mobile phone company.

American Incredible is essentially the same as that released only in Europe, Desire. The models are different when it comes to a few details: HTC Incredible has black and red casing, an 8-megapixel camera and it is signed with a logo of a different provider. Nevertheless, it has the same interface connected to Android 2.1 and Sense and Friend function joining into one all messages from Twitter, Facebook and Flicker. HTC Incredible has also the best touch keyboard, which was designed for Android.

In the front, we see AMOLED display with a nice resolution of 800x480 pixels, four buttons and an optical joystick. The screen seems to be the same as in the Nexus One, which is very pleasing to the eye. It has minor problems with displaying certain colors, though, but who cares.

On the side of the phone you will find an unusual micro USB port. HTC Incredible Optical joystick has been generally good, and the battery in the phone is fine. Only fine, because Android has a tendency to run many processes in the background.

HTC Incredible is also equipped with WiFi, Bluetooth 2.1 with A2DP, GPS receiver with A-GPS, 3G and HSDPA module and 256MB of RAM.

Although HTC Incredible has a huge (for a cell phone) matrix of 8 megapixels, the quality of the pictures is not that astonishing. Taking a picture takes about two seconds. The transition from the view screen to viewing photos takes so much because the camera has no dedicated button for taking photos. In addition, Incredible is equipped with autofocus.

In addition to the above mentioned big screen, the product will be equipped with: 3G module, HSDPA, WiFi, Bluetooth, camera 3Mpix, GPS, accelerometer, and a microSD slot. QCM-330 will probably have the Google Android operating system, but this has not yet been officially confirmed.
