Earlier today, the myTouch 4G Slide leaked out in official photos which seemed to signal that an announcement might be close and sure enough, T-Mobile has made the device official.

The device is going to be rolling out with a 3.7-inch touchscreen, Android 2.3 Gingerbread with Sense 3.0, a four row QWERTY keyboard, Genius Button, Netflix,
and a top of the line 8MP rear camera that includes:

  • Improved low-light Performance: with a backside illuminated sensor and a wide aperture lens (f/2.2)
  • Zero shutter lag: innovative software features allow for an instantaneous shot at that precise moment
  • Zero shutter lag: innovative software features allow for an instantaneous shot at that precise moment
  • SweepShot: for capturing panoramic shots by sweeping across an entire scene in a single motion
  • ClearShot HDR: for capturing objects in bright settings so your photos are not affected by high-contrast lighting
  • BurstShot: for capturing multiple photos in a quick burst so you don’t miss the perfect photo

Oh, and if you couldn’t tell by the name, it’ll have access to T-Mobile’s 4G HSPA+ network. All in all, not a bad little package.

    I am really excited for the MyTouch 4G Slide to come out.
    This phone looks to be all about speed! With a super fast camera, 4G and a
    dual-core processor, it should have no problem streaming my movies and shows
    wherever I am! I love being able to go anywhere I want and be able
    to stream live TV or recorded shows from my 922 SlingLoaded receiver to my
    phone. As a customer and employee of DISH Network, I have been using the app
    for a long time and it is one of the best apps I have. I encourage anyone and
    everyone to take a look at http://www.besttvforme.com to get all the information on
