We’ve already told you about the HTC Bliss, which was the codename of HTC’s new “female-focused” handset that’s soon to be out. Well HTC’s started advertising it officially under the moniker of HTC Rhyme, which makes sense because it’s one the first products of HTC’s partnership with Beats.

The HTC Rhyme is a pretty standard smartphone on paper. If you missed our post about the specs of the previously called HTC Bliss, then check this out (PS: RAM is 768MB).

Where the Rhyme stands out is with its intriguing accessories. Firstly there’s the “Charm” (minus the “indicator”) which is a small bauble that can hang out of a bag and lights up to indicate an incoming call. There’s an extremely minimalist Bluetooth hands-free headset, a Bluetooth speaker and a docking station that doesn’t require you to plug the Rhyme in and doubles as a music station.

Basically the Rhyme sounds like a cool little niche device and should appeal to a range of people (and not necessarily just women, HTC). So, anyone interested?
