HTC Tattoo unboxing video

A little over a month ago HTC announced that they would soon launch another Google Android powered handset called the HTC Tattoo. Surprisingly soon after that announcement HTC have launched the Tattoo and we’ve just managed to get our hands on one for review.

The HTC Tattoo

The HTC Tattoo is the smallest Android powered handset to be released so far and possibly one of the cheaper ones too. Unlike all the other Android handsets this one has only a QVGA (240×320) display versus the HVGA (320×480) found on the others. This makes for a much smaller, compact and lightweight handset. I’ve only used it briefly today but I have to say that my initial opinion is that it’s a really nice looking handset and I like the design of the back, much more interesting than the usual black or silver.

So we’ll be reviewing the HTC Tattoo over the next week or so and will have the review online for you as soon as we can. For now, have a look at the unboxing video below to see the handset in a little more detail. Note that although the box isn’t the full retail package the handset itself is full and final.
