This will be the first Windows Phone-based device with T-Mobile that’ll be rocking the 4G speeds (or at least the “4G” that T-Mobile uses with its HSPA+ network). The smartphone gets its grunt from a 1GHz Snapdragon processor. There’s also 8GB of on-board storage and a 3.8-inch LCD touchscreen display, as well as a 5MP camera and a dedicated camera button.

The previously revealed HTC Titan is considerably larger with its 4.7-inch screen and 1.5GHz processor, but the Radar 4G is no slouch either. Expect to see it “in time for the holidays.”

On the Google-leaning side of the 4G equation is the HTC Amaze 4G, which is also making its way to T-Mobile. Like its WP7.5 cousin, the Amaze will also get its high-speed wireless data via T-Mo’s HSPA+ network. The operating system of choice here is Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread, which is still par for the course for Android smartphones until Ice Cream Sandwich shows up.

The HTC Amaze 4G gets a 4.3-inch qHD touchscreen, dual-core 1.5GHz Snapdragon, 1GB of RAM, 8MP camera, NFC capabilities (a first with HTC?), dual LED flash, full 1080p HD video recording, and a 2MP front camera. This is being touted as a cameraphone, so the rear cam also has SmartShot (takes five photos and combines them into a “perfect” image), BurstShot, SweepShot panorama, ClearShot HDR, and Perfect Pics (groups photos together).

This ships on October 12 for $259.99 on a two-year contract after $50 mail-in rebate.

As we make our way down the spec sheet, we also learn that it has a full gig of RAM, Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread, and a 4.3-inch qHD touchscreen display. That’s an effective resolution of 960×540. There’s also dual carrier HSPA+ for wireless speeds of up to 42Mbps. Rounding out the features are 16GB storage, 8MP primary cam, 2MP front cam, NFC, and WiFi.

The HTC Ruby is apparently a Telus exclusive, but it is also known as the HTC Amaze. This leads us to believe that a slight variation on this phone might show up on other carriers, or at the very least, through American carriers too. Pricing has yet to be announced, but I’d imagine that it would be in line with other higher-end Android superphones. Look for it “within the next several weeks.”

Curiously, while there is an “HTC Sense” mention on the back, the screen appears to be showing stock Android. My guess is that this is a relatively early build being shown and they’ll load it up with HTC’s custom UI before shipping to customers.
