The device will excel at mobile casino games experience thanks to the 4 inch WVGA screen, Qualcomm MSM7227A chipset with 1GHz Cortex-A5 CPU, Adreno 200 GPU, and 512MB of RAM. Other features include a 5MP camera with LED flash and VGA video recording capabilities, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS, FM radio, 4GB or internal storage and a hefty microSD slot.

The new Android casino gambling tool is running on the latest Ice Cream Sandwich out of the box, also featuring HTC proprietary Sense 4.0 UI. Similarly to the latest HTC phones, the Desire V also includes Beats Audio enhancement for better sound quality.

HTC also presented a Chinese version of the smartphone, dubbed the Desire VC, the only difference here is the network support – the Desire VC is a CDMA/EVDO smartphone with tri-band GSM slot.

Once the new smartphone hits the shelves in early July in Asia it will cost around $345 for the SIM-free version. Look for our updates to see what the exact release date will be.
