HTC has some disappointing news for fans of its wafer-thin, super-industrial HTC Incredible Android phone – it’s not coming to the UK.
We weren’t really expecting it too, seeing as we already have HTC’s Legend, Desire and quite possibly even the Nexus One soon enough, but it’s still a bit of a shame – with its 8megapixel camera and super-slim case you could argue the Incredible is even more of a mind-blowing piece of Android kit than the beloved Desire.
Here’s how HTC broke the news, via a public Tweet, prompted by a question from this fellow:
It could’ve let us know personally in a phone call first, to lessen the hurt 
It’s smooth to use, the 1080p display is sharp, clear and bright, the device is extremely light and thin and therefore very pocketable and portable — much more so than other 5-inch phones we’ve used. And yet… we’re a bit unimpressed by the overall package…
A relatively high-spec smartphone, with a 4.5″ display running at 480 x 854 resolution and powered by a 1.2GHz dual-core processor, plus the Ascend G510 arrives running Android 4.1.1 — albeit potentially hindered by Huawei only sticking 512MB of RAM inside it..
The Panasonic Eluga marks the company’s return to the European mobile phone scene years after several years of absence, and it’s come back to us with a moderately high-spec Android model that features a rather stylish, slim case.
Sony returns with an all-new mobile design for 2012, pairing a dual-core processor with a 720p display. It’s a lovely phone, but is it enough to end our Samsung and HTC obsession?
LG’s updated Prada phone comes with an absolutely crazy black & white theme, but is it just for fashionable suit wearers who want to make themselves look a bit more interesting?

I remember when they tweeted that HTC would be getting Android in March 2010.

/ April 23, 2010I live in Norway and only one thing is keeping me from getting the Desire… the Synaptics ClearPad 2000 touchpad! Would seem like a waste to buy a phone that only recognises two fingers.

/ April 23, 2010Every Android phone is a tiny bit different and goes by a different name in the US though. I think it’s the law. So maybe there are really no plans for the Incredible, but there are plans for the “HTC Fantastic” instead. Or something. Not that it makes any difference to me – I bought a Hero. This year. ):
