HTC Desire HD (aka HTC Ace) specs tipped for October launch

Last we heard of the HTC Ace, it was featuring on a leaked UK carrier roadmap and tipped for a release in October 2010. Now there are some specs pieced together by SuperEtrader, and while we recommend liberal pinches of salt there’s still plenty to get excited about. According to the retailer, the HTC Ace will launch as the HTC Desire HD, and have a 4.3-inch WVGA touchscreen, 8-megapixel camera, 1GHz Qualcomm processor and Android 2.2.

They’ve also tipped 720p HD video recording, Xvid playback and SRS surround sound support, together with automatic face tracking for the camera, Flash 10 and a relatively low 4GB of internal storage. No word on what it might look like physically, aside from having a “unibody aluminium design” which sounds a lot like what HTC has done with the Legend (and, for that matter, what we saw in the HTC 1 concept earlier this week). Fitting successor to the HTC Desire? You tell us.
