HTC Accord with Windows Phone 8 shows up on T-Mobile US roadmap, launches in November

Coming to T-Mobile too

Following up on the earlier information about the HTC Accord aka 8X, it is now confirmed that the device will launch on T-Mobile in addition to rumored Verizon.

The information comes via TmoNews who has a screenshot of T-Mobile’s computer system, showing the device listed with a non-specific November date.

The 8X reportedly will feature a 4.3” 720P Super LCD2 display, Beats Audio, NFC, microSD expansion with 16GB of storage and a 1.2GHz, making a solid but somewhat mid-range device. HTC is expected to reveal details on the 8X on September 19th in New York City.

In related news, there is a Dell BMW device also listed for T-Mobile though there is no information on what that is exactly—we’re salivating at the idea that Dell may return to Windows Phone 8 with a Venue Pro follow-up. In addition, T-Mobile have reportedly dropped the HTC One X+ and HTC ERA for Android—another bad sign for the struggling Taiwanese company.
