Hi guys,
Too many talks for HTC latest beast – the Desire 816. As I am using it since 15 days it’s really fantabulous experience for me till now. Few things I would like to share of this Giant.
1. Good build it’s glossy finish plastic on rear but still looks premium.
2. The 2600 mAh li poly battery is enough. As Battery backup is far better than so called octacore & quad core processors who are playing gimmick by providing 3k mah+, it gives you full day on single charge & can give you 5 hours of non-stop 3g net, or gaming & playing FHD videos.
3 Screen resolution is perfect & crisp as it can play FHD videos flawlessly.
4. Both the front & rear camera will give you full satisfaction in terms of selfies, video calling & capturing memories ..as it can record FHD videos too.
5. HTC sense 6.0, & kit Kat 4.4.2, out of the box is totally Paisa vasool.
6 Sound quality is far far better from any of it’s class dual boom speaker amp; while playing with earphone on will take you to fly high on waves.
7. In this price segment having it feels like having something much better than MMX lava xolo, you should not compare these cheaps with the brand like HTC …
I wasted almost 32k with MMX & IBERRY NUCLEA N2 & still paying my affection towards this Cheap choicing these are nothing but re-branded cheap products.
Guys plz be sincere before buying nothing from these so called gimmick playing REBRANDED cheap phones.
Well I am not here to promote anything it’s what I experienced which I shared with you all choose wisely save money.
🙂

WOW!! we got winner here.. HTC Desire 816 very good specs for the price.. Key selling points: 5.5 inch LCD2 display, dual streo front speakers (one style), dual sim, 1.5 GB ram, cool design.. Great buy for around 22K Well done htc..
good move by by htc unlike Samsung.
Sure. But those who want more storage, NFC and other stuff that Moto G doesn’t have I think 816 is a better device. Yes, Moto X is better than that though.
The ultimate winners are the Indian Brand who forced all Big Poisa Loot Brands to reduce their price & make budget phones (Still Samsung is not in this list) ..& we all Middle Class people going to facilitate in buying mobile
