HTC Advantage X7501 spotted in the wild

The HTC Advantage X7500 series, like the HTC Shift, was not officially released in the Philippines by HTC but could have been a nice MID to have back in 2007.

This unit was spotted at InfoMaxx in Greenhills and was selling for Php55,000. There’s already a new version, the HTC Advantage X7510 announced last year and wasn’t released here either.

    hahaha! u’re right! I actually took interest of it instead of the unit yuga is talking about.

    astig!


  2. haha, wow, nanotice yung ring hehe :D my dad has the same kind of ring; he was an airforce officer kasi, anyway :D
    Wow, first reaction; “phone-minibook crossover”, Pero kahit ganun, asteeg to sir Yuga. If there was a version of this with a “Xenon Flash”, God, I would want to buy this one; imagine, I can blog away when I’m in starbucks (care of wi-fi)and take pictures worth blogging about at the same time! wah!
    for a computer, this one’s an underdog;
    for a smartphone, this one’s THE DOG.
    (ok mejo exagg na ako,)
    Sir Yuga update mo kami sa “feel” of this hot gadget :D


  3. It is not recommended for fat human beings.. Why? Tapping a single button would be time consuming.. Haha


  4. This one has a sim card slot for the 3g/hsdpa right? :)
