Images of the Android-powered HTC Hero emerge
Courtesy of the folks at Code Android Singapore, we now have our first live images of the rumored Android-based HTC Hero. Everyone can breathe a sigh of relief as the phone, first pictured in glorious hot pink, is shown with a typical black matte finish. The handset resembles a shoehorn the HTC Magic sans trackball and has a chin that would make even Jay Leno proud. One of the images also reveals the presence of a rather large round hole suggesting the presence of a 3.5mm headphone jack. Woo! With HTC’s track record of leaks, additional information on the Hero should be forthcoming soon. Hit the jump for a few more snapshots of this interesting looking handset.

Funky!
No keyboard!? That makes me sad…
looks right ugly…should fit right in on TMobile!!
Is it really that hard to design a good looking Android handset for once?! Come on HTC! You make great hardware for WinMo, but you can’t do the same for Android?
This is frustrating.
I personally like the look of the white Magic, but even I think this phone looks a bit odd.
chunky AND clunky? What is this, 2003??
In order to have android on a phone it has to look as stupid and unconventional as possible
ugly chin!!!!!!!!!!
personally I even loved the design of the g1. this doesnt move me at all lol
what about android necessitates that stupid angle?
Keyboard.
Hi res please.
(think… BB Bold)
Come on, it will be like putting a banana in my pocket! (well, another banana
I love Android but the more I use the G1 the less I like the hardware. It is heavy, oddly shaped and I get no 3G on it as an AT&T customer. I think if people use Android they will love it. Problem is that the hardware continues to stink!
htc has that design company that makes winmo phones.. it looks pretty obvious that they dont make android
