HTC Desire 816: First Impression
Less than a month before the launch of the new flagship HTC One 2 presented at MWC in Barcelona a strong challenger for the attractive middle-class segment, the Koreans. The Desire 816 will cost 379 euros, according to price, the built-in technology but it can loose with the record or other upper-class smartphone.
Already the screen convinced: With 5.5 inches and 720 x 1080 pixels resolution (HD), it provides content clearly dar. Full HD is not in this price range there. The first impression: HD is quite in order. The display colors are strong, the contrast also. Accustomed low is the viewing angle dependence, here HTC is one of the best on the market.
We were convinced from the start, is the comparatively low weight of Desire 816 His 165 grams are not self-evident for such a large smartphone. Thus, the handling is more comfortable than expected, but two free hands are of course necessary.
HTC One 2 is 24 March
The housing is made entirely of plastic, from elegant aluminum no trace. Cheap Desire 816 not affect it, but it is clear that this part is not for people who want to present their smartphone as a status symbol. The plastic feels sturdy and robust to, in no case cheap. The smooth back shows, however, prone to fingerprints.
Detachable is the back not, the battery is permanently installed, but still show up to the edge of the housing around gaps. Optical disturb not pass, may prove to be dust magnet but in everyday life. A unibody enclosure would certainly chic, but also become more expensive. Very beautiful are again off switch and volume control. The pushers are made according to HTC made of metal and are clean enclosed in the housing.

The HTC Desire is 816 with 13 – and 5-megapixel cameras fitted front and rear. The heart is a powerful quad-core processor with 1.6 GHz clock frequency (Snapdragon 400). On the MWC although we had only a pre-production model in hand, but this was already completely smooth and supple. The performance is fitting.
The internal memory is 8 gigabytes in size, nearly 6.8 gigabytes are freely available. In combination with the Slot for Micro SD cards, and given the price of the equipment is absolutely fine. The memory should be 1.5 gigabytes in size according to HTC. The battery has a capacity of 2600 mAh and as mentioned earlier is not interchangeable. For mobile Internet Turbo an LTE radio module is installed that requires a nano-SIM card.
