From Smartphone’s
two tablets and then phablets, there has been no dearth of innovation in the mobile
device sphere. Every brand rolls out a new model that is different from others
and its own preceding version. HTC ups the ante by rolling out the first
Smartphone in the world with a full HD display- HTC J Butterfly. Launched in
Japan last year in the month of December, HTC tweaks the hardware to introduce
this international version.
Display:
As its name
suggests, the Butterfly is slim and beautiful. The Smartphone turns the tide by
featuring a 5-inch display with a spectacular resolution of 1920x1080. Drawing parallels
with Apple iPhone and Samsung Galaxy note that sports a pixel density of 326
ppi and 267 ppi, this device offers an extraordinary resolution of 440ppi. The
screen quality is definitely among the finest, at present.
Build quality
and design:
Sporting a
unibody design and bearing resemblance to HTC One X, the phone is thinner at
the edges and has flat sides making it easy to hold. Irrespective of the body
being made of plastic veering away from its typical aluminum body, the handset
has a decent built quality. Adding to the sophistication is the metal like
gloss white finish on the back, thin edges and it’s lightweight.
Camera:
With an 8MP rear
camera and the 2MP camera in the back, the Butterfly does not disappoint the photo
lovers. Apart from the quality of the camera, a multitude of features makes your
clicking convenient and easy. This includes the inclusion of imagechip that
makes your picture taking process quicker (less than seconds) and HDR mode that
churns out the finest vibrant solution especially, when you click contrasting
objects. In addition, it is possible to click 99 continuous images by turning
on the explosive shot mode allowing you to capture anything and everything.
With a host of editing options, there is no bad shot.
Interface and
Functionality:
Running on 4.1 Jellybean
out of the box, the device offers a number of customizable options. The user –
interface is amazing, considering the1080p screen. With the device soon to
receive an update to 4.2 Jelly Bean, you are ensured about not being left
behind. Sense UI 4+, Jellybean and the full HD screen in tandem, paves the way
for a smooth experience.
Internet and
Connectivity:
The connectivity
options include GSM 850/900/1800/1900; HSDPA 850/210, LTE , Wi-Fi 802.11
a/b/g/n ,Wi-Fi direct and DLNA, microUSB 2.0 and Bluetooth 4.0 and
NFC. Browsing is easy on the Sense browser where you can easily scroll in,
scroll out, and zoom in and out.
Memory and
Processor:
Powered by 1.5GHz
double core Snapdragon S4 with Adreno 225 graphics, the performance is
impressive. The phone offers 16 GB of
memory where 11 GB is available for use along with the option to expand it up
to 32 GB.
Music and Sound
Quality:
Apart from
supporting basic formats like MP3, eAAC+, WMA and WAVs, there are four basic
options that you will be greeted with including music transferred to your
phone, Soundhound, 7 Digital and Tuneln Radio. The fact that the device enables
Beats Audio speaks for itself.
Battery:
The 2020 mAh
Lithium power battery gives the Smartphone enough juice to run for more than
14.5 hours, despite the applications running on the backdrop. However, many may
be disappointed to know that the battery is a non- removable one.
Final Verdict:
The HTC
Butterfly J scores on all aspects be it its looks, performance, features,
camera, application, software, or user- interface. However, the huge price tag
of the phone may make many feel wary. In a nutshell, the device is definitely
one of the finest and best- performing phones, we have ever seen.
