Completing HTC’s trio of One devices is the HTC One V, a device relives HTC’s glory days in an unmistakable and iconic design one of our favourite HTC Android devices, the HTC Legend.

The HTC One V sits in the affordable price bracket of the HTC One range of devices and features Android 4.0 with HTC Sense 4.0, a 3.7-inch 800×480 Super LCD 2 display with a 1.0 Ghz single-core processor accompanied by 512MB of RAM 4GB of internal storage. There is also the free 25GB Dropbox cloud storage included with the device and a 1,500mAh battery

In the camera department, the One V gets a 5MP f/2.0 shooter that’s capable of 720p videos as opposed to the 8MP 1080p units its more expensive stable-mates are endowed with. Nevertheless, the One V still benefits from HTC’s ImageSense enhancements that deliver blazing camera performance (0.7 seconds for camera app to start and 0.2 seconds for autofocus lock) as well as other cool tricks highlighted in our earlier post here.

The One V is expected to be available in the global market in April.
