The
HTC Explorer, code-named
Pico, is a smartphone developed by the HTC Corporation announced in September 2011 and released a month later.

and the 3D scrolling effects on the homescreens are not available. The
handset comes in four varieties of color options.

HTC Wildfire S, it comes with a 3.2-inch screen, a 600 MHz ARMv7
Qualcomm Snapdragon processor and runs
Android version 2.3 (Gingerbread), bundled with the proprietary
HTC Sense 3.5 user interface.
Features
Software
An unlocked bootloader of HTC Explorer
HTC Explorer is considered a low-end smartphone, due to its
comparatively low specifications. It offers Android 2.3 Gingerbread,
with proprietary HTC Sense 3.5 custom graphical user interface by the
manufacturer. The Explorer has an unlockable bootloader, allowing users from the outset to further develop the OS and "root"
the device, or gain legitimate privileged control in Android's
subsystem. Software-development community XDA-Developers was among the
first to release a custom ROM and kernel for the phone, and since then
the phone can unofficially be upgraded to newer versions
of the Android OS family and other aftermarket versions.HTC Explorer
being a Low-end phone has achieved Stable Build of CM10.2 a.k.a Android
4.3.x.Even it had a bootable build of FireFox OS.
Hardware
The Explorer has a plastic chassis that is 4.05 in (102.8 mm) long,
2.25 in (57.2 mm) wide, and 0.51 in (12.9 mm) thick, and weighs 3.81
(108 g). The screen is a 3.2-inch TFT capacitive touchscreen, supporting
256K colors and around 180 pixel-per-inch density. The device features a
600 MHz Cortex-A5 single-core central processing unit (CPU) and a
single-core Adreno 200 graphics processing unit (GPU), in conjunction
with an accelerometer and proximity sensor. Other features include a
microphone, GPS, and 3.15-megapixel rear camera. The rear of the
Explorer features a patterned plastic surface with a rubbery, leathery
texture to help users to grip and hold the device, with an additional
plate of brushed metal at the center of the rear cover.
