HTC have announced their latest power-house device, the HTC MAX 4G, a WiMAX-enabled top end Windows Mobile 6.5 device destined for the Yota WiMAX network that resides in Russia. It looks rather attractive sporting HTC's latest design features shared with their other recent products which means a sleek black casing and huge screen as well as their now familiar UI.

WiMax is like Wi-Fi only its coverage is much wider and can span across whole cities, however, don't confuse it with the upcoming 4G wireless data standard which we are yet to see in action, but WiMax is a good alternative that's already available to notebook users in various countries.

Stepping away from the WiMAX fuss, the tri-band GPRS/EDGE HTC MAX 4G differs from the HTC Touch HD by several key features. The MAX 4G has 8GB of user available memory, 3.2 MP autofocus camera, and a proximity sensor for auto screen turn-off during calls - much like on the iPhone. The weight and dimensions remain nearly the same, but the new baby is almost 2mm thicker than Touch HD.
