After teasing the HTC Butterfly on its website a few days ago, HTC officially unveiled this 5-inch handset at an event held in Taipei. Commenting on the launch of this handset, Chief Executive Peter Chou at HTC said, "We are confident that HTC Butterfly will set a new example for high-end smartphones."

• This smartphone's specifications are similar to that of the Japan-only HTC J Butterfly and the US-only Droid DNA.
• The HTC Butterfly, minus the J, is identical in specifications to its US and Japanese counterparts, which means that the 5-inch, Super LCD 3 screen with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels is featured on this handset as well.
• The smartphone comes equipped with a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro SoC running at 1.5 GHz and has 2 GB of RAM.
• HTC has chosen to endow the Butterfly with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and it's Sense UI on top.
• The handset features a 2020 mAh li-polymer battery that should keep the handset running for quite some time.
• The company has not stated how long the battery will last, so there is no official information available on the battery life.
• As is the case with all HTC smartphones launched in the past year, the HTC Butterfly comes with Dr Dre's Beats Audio drivers.
