Smartphone maker HTC on Tuesday announced its newest device, the Droid DNA, a 5-inch smartphone running Android Jelly Bean. The device will be offered exclusively through Verizon Wireless, which began taking preorders on Tuesday. It will be available at retail stores nationwide on Nov. 21 for $199.99 with a two-year contract. "The HTC Droid DNA is the first device with a 5-inch full HD 1920 x 1080 pixel screen so, from a resolution standpoint, it leads the way compared to the Samsung Galaxy S III, Galaxy Note II or the iPhone 5," said Julien Blin, analyst at Infonetics Research.
