The HTC Glacier (a previously unknown handset) has recently been spotted on GLBenchmark’s website. Not much is known about the new handset except for its screen resolution (800 x 480 pixels) and its GLBenchmark Pro 1.1 scores (1432 frames). The scores themselves are not anything revolutionary since it falls right below the Samsung Galaxy S, but we would like to point out that the HTC Glacier’s score is nearly three times higher than those posted by the HTC EVO 4G. Due to the significant performance boost, AlienBabelTech is speculating that the HTC Glacier may be running a dual-core 1.5 GHz Snapdragon processor.
AlienBabeTech is also making the assertion that the HTC Glacier may also be the rumored Project Emerald that is supposed to hit T-Mobile in early November. The benchmark scores were uploaded to GLBenchmark’s site by a T-Mobile USA employee. We know that T-Mobile has a few new HTC handsets set to launch this fall, but only Project Emerald is expected to be equipped with a dual-core processor.
