HTC Desire 820S: The not so desired mid range smartphone from the house of HTC

The not so desired mid range smartphone from the house of HTC

Large screen serves well for multimedia tasks, slim and attractive design, stable UI, good audio quality by BoomSound speakers, solid call quality

Poor resolution display, slippery construction, can only be expanded up-to 32 GB, poor battery back-up, average cameras, heats up while gaming and video playback

Smartphone industry is on steroids and manufacturers have to come out with something exceptional every time. Moreover, the expectations further rise if a manufacturer is offering an upgraded version of their product. Disappointingly, HTC Desire 820S...

HTC Desire 820s Review

The HTC Desire 820s is not a performance beast nor the lazy non-performer, it settles itself for somewhere in between. It is a good combination of features which make it a considerable choice over a few but still lacks the overalls to be unequivocally...

HTC Desire 820s Review: New Brains in the Same Body

Looks good ; Decent cameras ; Excellent performance

Very little has changed from the Desire 820 ; Display resolution is too low ; Expandable storage support capped at 32GB

The HTC Desire 820 was a great device with solid all-round performance, and the Desire 820s manages to improve upon that in a small but significant way. It's a good phone with great performance which should help HTC stay on par with its competitors.

The price of the phone when I bought it was about 19k and I think it is quite expensive in comparison to the other phones within this range. It looks pretty but the back is quite slippery so a good phone cover is a must. Also it heats up very fast if...
