We also said the phone would feature a remarkably thin 8.8-millimeter unibody case.

The flagship HTC Edge superphone will launch in March or April next year according to the report, and it will feature Google’s latest Android operating system, Android 4.0 “Ice Cream Sandwich.” Google unveiled Android 4.0 alongside Samsung’s Galaxy Nexus earlier this month, and it merges features from Gingerbread and Honeycomb into a single OS for both smartphones and tablets.

DigiTimes reaffirmed various details from our report as well, including the Edge’s 4.7-inch display and its quad-core Tegra 3 chipset. The industry watcher also claims that Samsung, LG and Motorola are already working on smartphones that will utilize NVIDIA’s quad-core chipset.
