However, if you look at the specs, it seems to be quite similar to the Dream. Some differences are the better memory size, no keyboard and under the special features, it sports a G-sensor and Digital Compass (Dream sports a motion sensor and Digital Compass). Actually, I wonder if they are the same. Nevertheless, below are the specifications.<\/p>\n<h3>Specifications<\/h3>\n<table style=\"height: 667px;\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"5\" width=\"462\" bordercolor=\"#333333\">\n<tbody>\n<tr bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n<td width=\"127\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\">Processor<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\">Qualcomm\u00ae MSM7201a\u2122, 528 MHz<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n<td width=\"127\" valign=\"top\">Operating System<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Android<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n<td width=\"127\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\">Memory<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\">ROM: 512 MB<br \/>\nRAM: 192 MB<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n<td valign=\"top\">Dimensions<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">113 x 55 x 13.65 mm ( 4.45 x 2.17 x 0.54 inches)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n<td width=\"127\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\">Weight<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\">118.5 grams ( 4.18 ounces) with battery<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n<td width=\"127\" valign=\"top\">Display<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">3.2-inch TFT-LCD flat touch-sensitive screen with 320&#215;480 HVGA resolution<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n<td width=\"127\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\">Network<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\">HSDPA\/WCDMA:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div class=\"TaF\">900\/2100 MHz<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div class=\"TaF\">Up to 2 Mbps up-link and 7.2 Mbps down-link speeds<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Quad-band GSM\/GPRS\/EDGE:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div class=\"TaF\">850\/900\/1800\/1900 MHz<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"TaF\"><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">(Band frequency and data speed are operator dependent.)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n<td width=\"127\" valign=\"top\">Device Control<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Trackball with Enter button<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n<td valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\">GPS<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\">Internal GPS antenna<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n<td valign=\"top\">Connectivity<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Bluetooth\u00ae 2.0 with Enhanced Data Rate<br \/>\nWi-Fi\u00ae: IEEE 802.11 b\/g<br \/>\nHTC ExtUSB\u2122 (11-pin mini-USB 2.0 and audio jack in one)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n<td width=\"127\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\">Camera<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\">3.2 megapixel color camera with auto focus<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n<td valign=\"top\">Audio supported formats<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">AAC, AAC+, AMR-NB, MP3, WMA, WAV, AAC-LC, MIDI, OGG<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n<td valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\">Video supported formats<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\">MP4, 3GP<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n<td valign=\"top\">Battery<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Rechargeable Lithium-ion battery<br \/>\nCapacity: 1340 mAh<br \/>\nTalk time:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div class=\"TaF\">Up to 400 minutes for WCDMA<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div class=\"TaF\">Up to 450 minutes for GSM<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Standby time:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div class=\"TaF\">Up to 660 hours for WCDMA<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div class=\"TaF\">Up to 420 hours for GSM<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"TaF\"><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">(The above are subject to network and phone usage.)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n<td valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\">Expansion Slot<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\">microSD\u2122 memory card (SD 2.0 compatible)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n<td valign=\"top\">AC Adapter<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Voltage range\/frequency: 100 ~ 240V AC, 47\/63 Hz<br \/>\nDC output: 5V and 1A<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n<td valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\">Special Features<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#f2f2f2\">G-sensor<br \/>\nDigital Compass<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2><a href=\"http:\/\/www.htc.com\/www\/product\/dream\/overview.html\" target=\"_blank\">Click Here to HTC Magic Official Website<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>Before rejoicing at this Android phone, according to the Press Release, it is exclusive to Vodafone.
