Following the early leaks in April, HTC and Verizon have officially launched the Droid Incredible 4G LTE.

The advanced camera system allows users to shoot HD video and capture photos at the same time. There is also a secondary 1.3-megapixel camera in the device. The connectivity features include Bluetooth v4.0, NFC, assisted GPS, microUSB v2.0 (MHL), and Wi-Fi with Wi-Fi Direct, DLNA sharing and hotspot functionality. The device packs 1,700 mAh battery.
