HTC Bolt Review

Score: 75 / 100

HTC Bolt is a completely fascinating cellphone released in 2016, provisioned with a huge 5.5" screen, an extremely powerful 2000 megahertz Octa-Core processor, a 16 MP back facing camera and an 8 megapixels front camera. Let's take a deeper sight of what this cellphone has to offer.

This phone feels much lighter than what you expect from a phone like this. The HTC Bolt is only available in 16 777 216 color. While this cellphone is only 6.06 inches long, it's able to fit a a 5.5 inches screen. Being just 0.32" thick,this phone is incredibly thin and comfortable. About its construction materials, this phone is mostly manufactured with Aluminum .

HTC decided to power this phone with an extremely powerful Octa-Core processing unit clocking at 2 gigahertz, included in the Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 MSM8994 chip with a great 3 GB RAM memory. This cellphone comes with a 32 GB awesome internal storage and a slot for an SD memory card, which allows the user to install tons of apps, games, photos and videos without worrying about filling it.

This cellphone is equipped with two cameras, a 16 megapixels back-facing camera and an 8 MP front side camera. It also shoots videos in 4K 3840x2160 at 30 frames per second, and Full HD 1920x1080 slow-motion videos up to 120 frames per second (4 times slower than regular videos).

HTC equipped this cellphone with a completely amazing 5.5" display, and a resolution of 1440 x 2560 (Quad HD / 2K), providing this cellphone with a delightful graphical experience.

The HTC Bolt counts with wifi connection (and it can share it with other devices acting as a wireless modem), LTE-A 4G ultra fast internet connection and also HSPA+ data connection (a lower speed 4G variation) and the fastest 3G connection type, over HSDPA and HSUPA technologies. The HTC Bolt works with a Nano SIM card to use GSM services.

The HTC Bolt has a high capacity 3200 mAh Li - Ion non-replaceable battery that can keep it running for many hours and even reach the end of the day without charging it. An issue to take into consideration is that the HTC Bolt's battery is not replaceable so you can't change it when it begins to get older, whereas with such a huge battery size you will probably discard this cellphone before it happens.

This cellphone also includes many great characteristics like Fingerprint Identification, NFC (to trigger actions, transfer data or make payments by holding your cellphone close to another NFC device or tag), Bluetooth (4.1 ) and GPS, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

This device is probably a very good choice for you if you want it to take tons of photos, want a gaming cellphone, want a work cellphone or will use it mostly for social networks.
