HTC J butterfly with 5-inch 1080p SLCD3 display announced in Japan

HTC has just unveiled the HTC J butterfly in Japan and it is the first production smartphone to have a 1080p display.

HTC J Butterfly has a 5.0-inch Super LCD3 with a resolution of 1920 x 1080, which gives it an astonishing pixel density of 440 ppi. The display is quite big but at 143 x 71 x 9.1 mm, the J butterfly is only slightly bigger than the One X (134.4 x 69.9 x 8.9 mm) and at 140g weighs.

Inside, the HTC J butterfly runs on a Quad-core Qualcomm APQ8064 Snapdragon S4 processor clocked at 1.5GHz with 2GB of RAM. It has 16GB internal memory along with a microSD card slot up to 64GB.

On the back is an 8 megapixel camera with 1080p video recording and on the front is a 2 megapixel camera. The phone supports LTE and NFC and is dust and waterproof (IPX5). Strangely, for a phone with such specs, the battery is only 2,020mAh. Lastly, the J butterfly will ship with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean out of the box.
