- MWC 2014: HTC Desire 816 hands-on
Introduction
HTC stuck to its strength with the two devices it presented at the MWC the Desire 816 phablet and Desire 610 smartphone. Both feature attractive designs, LTE connectivity and BoomSound speakers.
The HTC Desire 816 is a 5.5" phablet, "one of the best value smartphones ever introduced by HTC" says the company. LTE is certainly a good step and the 13MP camera sure helps. There's also a front-facing camera with 5MP BSI sensor for better selfies.
The HTC Desire 610 is a smaller device, with a 4.7" qHD screen. The Desire 610 has an 8MP camera and is powered by a Snapdragon 400 chipset. It has a fairly large battery too, 2,400mAh, which surprisingly is only a bit smaller than that of the phablet.
Unfortunately, HTC only brought out a Desire 816 dummy, so we couldn't handle the live device. Still, there are some photos on the next page you can look at - HTC should allow hands-ons with the real deal tomorrow. The situation with the Desire 610 is even worse, there isn't even a dummy.
