According to various rumors, there will be two major Android smart phones from Taiwan based phone maker HTC during the coming holiday season.

First on the list is the less believable HTC Sabor. Considering the impressive specs on the handset, it is hard to believe that by the end of the year, HTC would be offering the market a smart phone with a 2GHz CPU and a touch scree display with 1080p HD resolution.

The specs are something out of a smart phone lover’s pipe dream and one that is unlikely to be technologically available in the given time frame –if it does exist, the battery life on the device would be cut extremely short as there are no power-efficient 2GHz CPUs available or in development.

Even Intel has announced that they would not be entering the smart phone industry until 2011, and they have made no claims that they would have a 2GHz CPU either.

The other smart phone is far more believable because of the proposed hardware specs and because it has already been leaked in images. The HTC Vision is a touch screen smart phone that comes with a slide out QWERTY keyboard, and a new high speed CPU clocked at 1.5 GHz. Many HTC Android fans have been hoping for a keyboard loaded device since the Motorola Milestone came out and HTC has yet to answer the call.

A physical keyboard is big deal because it allows users to type plenty of text faster than using a virtual onscreen keyboard. While the feature is not suited for all users, a vast majority of smart phone fans love keyboards –this partially explains why BlackBerry devices are still in demand.

According to rumors, the two handsets will most likely come packed with the new Android 3.0 Gingerbread OS.
