HTC Desire EYE Review

for Asia     See other variants reviews Score: 65.6 / 100

HTC Desire EYE is a very solid Android phone launched back in 2014, featuring a big 5.2-inches multi touch screen, a high performance Quad-Core processing unit running at 2300 megahertz, and two cameras, a 13 MP back camera and a 13 megapixels front facing camera. Let's take a deeper look at what this phone can do.

Being just 0.33 inches thick,this cellphone is thin and practical. This cellphone is quite a compact cellphone, given that it features a 5.2" display and it is just 5.97" long and 2.91" wide. HTC has made a very good job making this cellphone weight only 5.43 oz.

HTC equipped the HTC Desire EYE with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 chip, packing an extremely fast 2300 megahertz Quad-Core processor with a large 2 GB RAM. A good advantage of this cellphone is its big 16 GB internal storage and a slot for external memory cards, enough to store hundreds of applications without any problem.

This cellphone features two cameras, a 13 MP back facing camera and a 13 megapixels front-facing camera. This phone also films videos in Full HD 1920x1080. In addition, this cellphone's camera also features some good characteristics: auto-focus, flash, HDR mode, face detection shooting and geo tagging.

This phone has a high-tech 1920 x 1080 (Full HD) 5.2" screen, providing this cellphone with a delightful graphic quality.

This phone uses an awesome 2400 mAh Li-Polymer non-replaceable battery that can keep it running for several hours and even reach the end of the day without having to charge it. An issue to take into consideration is that the HTC Desire EYE's battery is non-removable so you can't change it when it starts to have trouble holding its charge, whereas with this big battery you will probably buy a new device before that happens.

This cellphone counts with wi-fi connection (although it can't be provided to other devices around, acting as a wireless router or modem), 4G HSPA+ data connection, which is not so fast as LTE-A or LTE networks and fast 3G connectivity, over HSDPA and EDGE technologies. This cellphone works with a Nano SIM card for GSM services.

This phone also features a handful of useful features like NFC (Near Field Communication), Bluetooth (4.0) and GPS Localization, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

The HTC Desire EYE costs around 335 dollars, a high price for comparing with similar devices. No matter whether you want a social cellphone, are looking for a phone for gaming, want a cellphone for work or are an amateur photographer, you will probably be very pleased with it.
