Malaysia – 18 August, 2010 – HTC Corporation, a global designer of smartphones, today introduced
HTC Aria™. This pocket-sized dynamo packs a punch with a five megapixel camera, a bright 3.2 inch
HVGA display, and offers users Android smartphone functionality in an amazingly easy-to-carry
design.

HTC Aria features the acclaimed HTC Sense experience, which automatically delivers the most-
wanted information by bringing it to the forefront of the mobile experience. Featuring the latest
version of HTC Sense, HTC Aria offers even more ways to stay connected, including Friend Stream,
which delivers Facebook, Twitter and Flickr updates in a single, consolidated view.

“Its unique combination of compact size and beautiful design instantly separates HTC Aria from the
pack of ‘me-too’ smartphones,” said Jack Tong, vice president of HTC Asia Pacific. “But what really
differentiates HTC Aria from other smartphones is the acclaimed HTC Sense experience. By putting
people at the center of everything it does, HTC Aria organizes all of your communications in the
most human way possible – by person.”

“DiGi is always exploring new ways to enrich our customer experience, and through our exclusive
arrangement with HTC, we will be the first to offer this sleek and affordable Android handheld to all
our customers. The HTC Aria will be perfect for those who are venturing into Android smartphones
for the first time. Together with HTC and DiGi’s attractive smartphone packages, the HTC Aria will
offer our customers a new experience of mobile connectivity in their lives,” said Loh Keh Jiat, DiGi’s
Head of Product Marketing.

A full selection of the newest and most popular Google services can be accessed with HTC Aria.
This includes Google search, Google Maps, Google Maps Navigation, Gmail, YouTube and more.
With Android Market, customers can also choose from more than 70,000 applications to further
personalize the mobile experience.

Along with being ultra-small at just over 10cm long and weighing a mere 115g (battery included),
HTC Aria’s seamless wrap-around soft-touch back cover eliminates sharp edges, making HTC Aria
exceptionally convenient to carry and comfortable to hold as well.
