You either love them on phones or hate &lsquo;em. Either way, if you have your eyes fixed on the future with the Hero 2 &mdash; ahem! &mdash; I mean, the HTC Legend, then you&rsquo;ll still be getting this mouth-wrapping form factor detail. What you&rsquo;ll also be getting is one sleek, sexy hunk of heavy metal.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Okay, correction: Maybe it&rsquo;s really not all that heavy. In fact, given its aluminum fabrication, the bones on the Legend should pretty light, yet ridiculously strong. And did I say sexy? Indeed, it is: The unibody design is forged from a single chunk of metal and fashioned into a similar shape as the familiar chin-toting design that made the GSM Hero so distinctive.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Thank Mobile Burn for the eye candy here, which features a display spotlighting examples of the aluminum shell at its different stages of manufacturing. (For more, hit up the site&rsquo;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mobileburn.com\/story.jsp?Id=8830\" >photo gallery<\/a> of images.)&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Distinctive chin. Ridiculous strength. Hunk. Hero. These words make me think of an action star. Can&rsquo;t wait to see if the phone lives up to it.<\/p>\n<p>Via: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mobilecrunch.com\/2010\/02\/22\/photos-the-birth-of-an-htc-legend-unibody-aluminum-shell\/\" >Mobile Burn<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/r.phonedog.com\/shared\/images\/2010\/2\/94599-legend-shell.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"630\" height=\"323\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/_-CTjpDjeHTIYX7a0xW0O-H-2UY\/0\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/_-CTjpDjeHTIYX7a0xW0O-H-2UY\/0\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/_-CTjpDjeHTIYX7a0xW0O-H-2UY\/1\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/_-CTjpDjeHTIYX7a0xW0O-H-2UY\/1\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/phonedog_cellphoneblog\/~4\/Rc1tSranaCM\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is it with chins?
