The HTC Desire Z (also marketed as T-Mobile G2 in the US) (codenamed HTC Vision)[3] is a slider-style smartphone developed by HTC Corporation and announced on 15 September 2010. It was released in Europe and Canada in November 2010, following a number of delays related to Google's quality assurance tests.[4] Other than its slider configuration, the Desire Z features specifications similar to the HTC Desire and the HTC Desire HD.[5] The design of the HTC Desire Z has capacitive face buttons rather than the mechanical ones the HTC Desire features.
According to HTC's Vice President Bjorn Kilburn, the phone is the last Google-Assured QWERTY slider to be manufactured by HTC.[6]
