T-Mobile has had quite a day today, first announcing their impending release of the Galaxy S II, then announcing the HTC Amaze 4G, formerly known around the rumor mill as the HTC Ruby.

It appears that one of the device's major claims to fame is its camera. The T-Mobile HTC Amaze phone boasts a backside illuminated sensor, in addition to software enhancements including SmartShot and PerfectPics, allowing you to take the best shot every time, and organize your photos easily.

If you haven't been keeping  up with the HTC Ruby's rumors lately, here are some of the specs it's bringing to the table:

  • 4.3" qHD super LCD display
  • Qualcomm Snapdragon S3 dual-core processor at 1.5GHz
  • 1GB RAM
  • 16GB Internal storage
  • NFC Capability
  • Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread (With Sense 3.5)

The HTC Amaze 4G is expected to drop on the same date as the Galaxy S II - October 12th, with pre-orders available at T-Mobile.com starting October 10th. The device will be $259.99 after a $50 mail-in rebate on a new two-year agreement.

    In two weeks, the Android world will go from one to four NFC phones. Hopefully Europe will be incorporating this technology as well - progress as American credit cards are increasingly difficult to use there.
