September 2011, Verizon and Europe. A phone "for women" in Plum, as well as Hourglass and Clearwater: a 3.7" WVGA Super LCD, a Snapdragon MSM8655 at 1 GHz, 768 MB of RAM, 5 MP, and Android 2.3 with Sense 3.5. In the box: the glowing HTC Charm cube (it hangs from a bag and flashes when a call comes in), a dock with a speaker, and headphones with a flat cable. The first HTC with Beats Audio in its firmware (at the same time as the Sensation XE). A commercial weak spot.

The HTC Rhyme is a multi-touch, slate-format Android 2.3 smartphone designed and produced by HTC. The Rhyme was released in the United States exclusively by Verizon Wireless on September 22, 2011, with releases in Asia and Europe beginning in October 2011. The Rhyme is a mid-range smartphone, distinguished by its use of an updated HTC Sense 3.5 user experience, and a selection of bundled accessories; such as a charging dock, wireless speakers, and an LED "charm" that can be used as a notification light. While it was not explicitly marketed as such by HTC, the Rhyme was primarily developed and targeted towards women.
