T-Mobile's myTouch 4G has undergone a bit of a name change and carrier swap, as its cousin, the HTC Panache is now available from regional carrier Cincinnati Bell.
All of the myTouch 4G's specs have come over, including the 1GHz Snapdragon processor and 3.8-inch WVGA (480 x 800) screen. The OS has been upgraded to Android 2.3 Gingerbread, and T-Mobile's custom variant of HTC's Sense UI has been swapped out for the latest version of Sense proper. A 5 megapixel camera that can record 720p HD video resides on the back, while a front-facing camera takes care of video chat duties.
The Panache supports Cincinnati Bell's 7.2Mbps HSDPA network, for what the carrier calls "4G" speeds. You can grab the HTC Panache from Cincinnati Bell now for $199.99 with a new two-year agreement, or for $499 without a contract. [Cincinnati Bell via Android Central]
