The Droid Incredible 4G LTE has that same distinctive look that the Incedible S had on the back with red highlights as well. Specifications include:

  • 4 inch qHD (960x540) Super LCD display with Gorilla Glass
  • 1.2 GHz dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor
  • Android 4.0 and HTC Sense 4
  • 8 megapixel camera with VGA front facing camera
  • 8 GB integrated memory and 1 GB RAM
  • microSD card slot for memory expansion
  • 1700 mAH removable battery
  • Bluetooth 4.0
  • 802.11 a/b/g/n WiFi
  • NFC

While not as full featured as the HTC One X, this is a nice device for Verizon customers who want a pocketable phone. It is more like the HTC One S device on T-Mobile, except for the display technology. HTC Sense 4 runs well on Ice Cream Sandwich and LTE speeds on Verizon are a welcome addition.
