Courtesy of the folks at Code Android Singapore, we now have our first live images of the rumored Android-based HTC Hero. Everyone can breathe a sigh of relief as the phone, first pictured in glorious hot pink, is shown with a typical black matte finish. The handset resembles a shoehorn the HTC Magic sans trackball and has a chin that would make even Jay Leno proud. One of the images also reveals the presence of a rather large round hole suggesting the presence of a 3.5mm headphone jack. Woo! With HTC’s track record of leaks, additional information on the Hero should be forthcoming soon. Hit the jump for a few more snapshots of this interesting looking handset.

    Is it really that hard to design a good looking Android handset for once?! Come on HTC! You make great hardware for WinMo, but you can’t do the same for Android?

    This is frustrating.

    I personally like the look of the white Magic, but even I think this phone looks a bit odd.

    Come on, it will be like putting a banana in my pocket! (well, another banana :)

    I love Android but the more I use the G1 the less I like the hardware. It is heavy, oddly shaped and I get no 3G on it as an AT&T customer. I think if people use Android they will love it. Problem is that the hardware continues to stink!
