HTC Jetstream is a new tablet which will be released in the market by HTC and AT&T. AT&T announced the launch of this new tablet just few days ago and they said that the new HTC Jetstream will be capable of working on the new LTE network. Although the tablet will have access to LTE network but the trouble is that AT&T doest have many regions with LTE network. Verizon is far ahead when it comes to installing the LTE network and it has at present as many as 70 urban cities with LTE network. The new HTC Jetstream tablet is 4G enabled and this simply means that you will have access to super high speed internet always. The new tablet is a pleasure to use and is powered by Android 3.1 Honeycomb version.
The HTC Jetstream works on quad band GSM technology and at the same time it is also capable of working with UMTS network and LTE 700. The tablet is quite a competition in the market as it has a 10.1 inches high resolution capacitive LCD touchscreen. The screen is superb and shows images and pictures with 1280×768 pixels resolution. Something that I really liked was the 8 MP rear camera that takes superb pictures and for video calling, this tablet has a 1.3 MP front camera as well. The camera uses a dual LED flash to take good pictures and also has autofocus feature as well.
The HTC Jetstream is powered by a dual core 1.5 GHz Snapdragon processor and has 1 GB of RAM. The tablet comes with 32 GB of internal memory and this is expandable to 32 GB with microSD or microSDHC card slots. The new tablet has a battery capacity of a whopping 7300 mAh. This is very good in fact as it will help the users to have longer talk time and workable time.

HTC Jetstream will available through AT&T for $700 with a two year contract and if you want to buy this tablet without contract then it will cost you $850. HTC Jetstream according to me is quite expensive as you can get a tablet today for lesser price and to pay this high price for something that will get outdated so fast is no point.
