" HTC has announced the Rezound smartphone. The new handset, likely to be US-exclusive, features 4G connectivity and Beats audio technology. Rezound has a 4.3-inch HD screen with a 720p display. It comes with the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system pre-installed, powered by a 1.5GHz dual-core processor and 1GB of RAM.  The device also packs 16GB of internal storage and a 1,620 mAh battery. A 2-megapixel front-facing camera and an 8-megapixel rear-facing one are also included, backed by a powerful LED flash. Beats audio technology, devised by Dr Dre&amp;#039;s headphones company, will also be hosted by the Rezound. It will come with a set of branded earphones, connecting special Beats profile when they are plugged in. HTC acquired a majority stake in Beats by Dr Dre back in August, paying out \u00A3191 million ($310m) for a 51% share of the company. &amp;quot;HTC is dedicated to delivering the latest in sight and sound innovation and we&amp;#039;re excited to be introducing the first US smartphone featuring Beats Audio technology,&amp;quot; said HTC chief executive Peter Chou.  &amp;quot;Paired with Verizon Wireless&amp;#039; blazing-fast 4G LTE network and a robust multimedia experience, the HTC Rezound enables customers to enjoy their favorite music and entertainment on-the-go like never before.&amp;quot; A UK launch for the Rezound is considered unlikely due to its 4G technology and its exclusivity to US carrier Verizon. The HTC Sensation XL and XE were recently launched in Britain, offering the same audio standards. The HTC Rezound will be available in the US from November 14. &amp;amp;gt; More technology news "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
