Android Community reports that HTC has officially announced its Flyer tablet at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, and its specs are quite impressive.

The Android 2.4 Gingerbread-based device runs a modified version of the Sense UI, which pairs nicely with the 7-inch, 1024 x 600 capacitive touchscreen. It's all powered by a 1.45 GHz single-core Qualcomm CPU with data-only HSPA+ (a Wi-Fi-only version is in the works). The Flyer also boasts a 4,000 mAh battery, dual cameras, and a custom microUSB port that supports HTC's new rapid charger (as well as standard microUSB chargers). The hardware is wrapped up nicely in a sleek white plastic and brushed aluminum chassis.

The Android device will begin shipping in the second quarter of this year, the company said.
