HTC aims high with 4.5 million Q2 2010 target

According to Commercial Times (via Digitimes.com) HTC is expected to reach a new high water mark for quarterly shipments, and is widely expected to ship up to 4.5 million handsets in Q2 2010.

This number is more than a million more than the 3.3 to 3.5 million shipped in Q1 2010, and a great sign of recovery for the handset maker who shipped only around 11 million in the whole of 2009.

Amongst a variety of Android handsets, the HTC HD mini is also expected to help drive shipment growth in the second quarter, the paper said.

HTC’s increasingly high profile success has recently caught the eye of Apple, who is currently in the process of suing it for patent violation largely related to its use of the Android OS.
