Rogers Rolls Out LTE Enabled HTC Raider

For those of you who wanted a smartphone on Rogers LTE network, Rogers has some news for you:

Just a quick note this afternoon to let you know we now have another smartphone to add to our growing LTE device lineup. HTC announced today the launch of the newest LTE smartphone, the HTC Raider.  Rogers will begin shipping today and the device will begin arriving in stores tomorrow.  The HTC Raider will be available for Rogers customers for $149.99 on select 3-year plans.

It’s got all the usual bells and whistles such as Android Gingerbread, dual core processor, 1080P video recording and a 8MP camera. So it’s clearly not lacking when compared to the iPhone 4S which is the gold standard in smartphones. I’m guessing that this will be the first of many LTE smartphones to hit Rogers this year and next. Of course these phones will only be truly useful when LTE coverage expands across Canada, but if you’re an early adopter you can get your LTE smartphone fix on Friday.
