HTC Desire 500 Review

HTC Desire 500 this mid range phone from for HTC in its desire segment is now available in the market. But its demand is too high than its production. It also the most awaited phones for the HTC fans. Like the others phone if we talk about it’s design and look its feels slim and comfort to work with one hand. Features are perfect I first time I think that HTC made this phone by keeping the user factor in mind because in previous bit low range phones the important stuff was missing it was its secondary camera which affects its sells upto certain extent. 

Let’s look at its key features

This phones support dual SIM GSM + CDMA which is an awesome features, rear camera is 8MP with lot of customization features like HDR, best shot, slow recoding option with LED flash light, front camera is 1.6 MP which is good for video calling, processor is Quad core with 1.2 GHZ of power packed which makes the phones to perform super fast. Display is 4.3” with 480X800 pixels which is just ok. The good thing is that which I was missing in old Xperia L devices is transfering of apps to SD cards (there we can’t moves apps to SD cards, there 4 GB of space available in the phones which is not sufficient for Game lovers, pretty disappointing), but HTC desires 500 have option to move apps to SD cards.

Other amazing features is its self HTC 5 sense, which can be customize accordingly by you and will see updates on your home screen frequently.

Gaming experience is good on device as I play Iron man 3 performs perfectly, I don’t have any problem to play on it.

Overall the phone is great in the price range of 20500 INR.
