HTC planning first 3D Android smartphone in 2011

"HTC is aiming to bring an Android smartphone with a 3D screen to market before the end of 2011, reports suggest."

reports that HTC are aiming to be the first to offer an Android smartphone with a 3D screen, in an effort to maintain their momentum in the field that they've got from popular devices like the HTC Desire.

HTC actually showed off demos of 3D phones at Mobile World Congress in February this year, but it seemed unlikely at the time that any would go into production in the forseeable future.

But HTC recently advertised a job for a 'display and camera design engineer' who had 'familiary with 3D display and imaging technologies', and HTC insiders have reportedly said that they hope to have a device on the market before 2011 is out.

They're not the only ones looking at bringing 3D to Android phones - Motorola, Acer and Sharp are also interested in adding more dimensions to the phone experience, with Sharp currently looking like they might win the race to get the first device to market.

Interest in portable 3D devices is sure to increase in 2011 with the introduction of the Nintendo 3DS, which will bring a 3D effect to handheld gaming.
