HTC Desire 600 Review

Score: 58.9 / 100

HTC Desire 600 is a pretty good phone released many years ago, coming with an extremely fast Quad-Core processor ticking at 1200 MHz, a medium 4.5 inches screen, and 2 cameras, an 8 megapixels back-facing camera and a 1.6 MP front side camera.

This phone is sold in two different color options, black and gray. The HTC Desire 600 is very slim, being just 0.36" thick. HTC made an amazing job making the HTC Desire 600 as lightweight as 4.59 ounces.

HTC decided to design the HTC Desire 600 using a Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 system chip, which holds an extremely powerful Quad-Core processor ticking at 1.2 GHz with only 1 GB RAM memory which is a little bit low for a phone of this level. Graphic rendering generally eats a lot of CPU time, so it counts with a 245 megahertz Adreno 203 GPU to help the processor with those tasks. A good aspect of the HTC Desire 600 is its quite large 8 GB internal storage memory and a slot for SD memory cards, enough to install a couple hundred apps without any trouble.

This cellphone is equipped with two cameras, an 8 MP back side camera and a 1.6 megapixels front-facing camera. It can also capture 1280x720 HD videos. This camera also has flash and auto-focus.

This cellphone has a good looking 960 x 540 4.5 inches display, which makes all images and movies look great. This display uses S-LCD 2 capacitive technology, and is multi-touch enabled.

This cellphone features a medium capacity 1860 mAh Li-Polymer battery that provides the HTC Desire 600 a below average battery duration comparing with other similar cellphones. According to HTC, this device has a reported 539 hs stand by time and a 11.4 hours talk time.

This phone has Wi-Fi connection (but it can't share it with other devices around, as a mobile mobile hotspot) and 3G fast connectivity, using HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. The HTC Desire 600 comes with two Micro SIM cards so it can to work with 2 different carriers or phone lines.

The HTC Desire 600 also features a handful of interesting characteristics such as NFC (Near Field Communication), Bluetooth (allows communication with other cellphones, computers and accessories) and GPS Geolocation, and a couple sensors likeLight Sensor, Proximity Sensor and Accelerometer.

HTC offers this phone for $ 249, which is a really high price for a cellphone this level. No matter whether you will use it mainly for social networks and internet browsing or will use it as a gamer cellphone, this phone is a good choice . HTC sells the HTC Desire 600 with Wall charger, User Manual, microUSB cable and Headphones.
