HTC Bass outed - new name for Runnymede phone?

The unusually named HTC Runnymede looks likely to come to the UK in the guise of the HTC Bass, if a new web posting is anything to go by.

Online retailer Handtec has created a page for the HTC Bass, offering it SiIMfree and in a rather fetching white.

There's no price as of yet but there's a few specs listed.

The handset is said to be packing Google Android 2.3.4, has a 1.5 GHz (probably dual core) processor, 4.7-Inch screen, 16GB internal memory, 8MP rear camera and 1.3MP Camera, as well as GPS, WiFi and Bluetooth.

The Beats go on

The phone also has a Beats logo, hence the reason why the handset has been given the HTC Bass moniker.

Just this week, HTC unveiled its first phone to have Beats integration. The HTC Sensation XE marks the first time TechRadar has managed to listen to the Beats technology within a handset and we were impressed with the results.

The tie-up with Beats all stems from HTC acquiring a 51 per cent stake in Beats Electronics in August for a cool $300 million (£190 million).
