HTC is about to drop a new phone that we’ve been talking about for a while now. The Evo Shift is a slightly smaller version of the original Evo 4G, but with a QWERTY keyboard. If you’ve been following our site consistently, or following Android news in general, you’ve heard of the Evo Shift. It’ll be hitting Sprint’s sales avenues within the next week or two, and we’ve finally gotten a solid word on the actual tech specifications of the phone. When the Evo Shift lands, it’ll be sporting the following hardware:

3.7″ Capacitive Touchscreen Display

Slide-out Full QWERTY Keyboard

Android 2.2 OS

4G Data Speeds in Supported Markets

Up to 32GB of microSD Expansion Memory

8.0 MP Camera with Dual LED Flash + Video Capture

Dimensions (H x W x D)4.63 x 2.3 x .47 in

Weight (w/standard battery)4.6 oz

8GB MicroSD Card

The launch will be soon, and the price tag is expected to be about $149.99. Keep your eye out, and of course we’ll let you know as things become more official. This looks to be a great phone at a great price, so its launch should be a big deal.
