HTC Desire V Review
Score: 49 / 100
HTC Desire V is a not so powerful Android phone released in 2012, packing a 5 megapixels back facing camera, a medium sized 4" display and a great performance CPU speeding at 1000 megahertz.
Being just 0.37 inches thick,this phone is extremely thin and stilized. This time, it seems like HTC decided not to care much about the weight in this 4.02 oz phone.
HTC packed this device with a good looking 4-inches display, and a 800 x 480 resolution, which makes everything look very good.
The HTC Desire V is powered by a powerful 1000 MHz CPU, bundled in a Qualcomm Snapdragon S1 MSM7227A chip with 512 MB of RAM. Graphic rendering often uses a lot of CPU cycles, so it has an extra Adreno 200 graphics processing unit speeding at 128 MHz to unload the processor.
This cellphone provides wifi capability (but it can't be shared with other devices around, as a mobile hotspot). This phone uses two SIM cards so it's able to work with two different phone numbers at the same time.
This device only has a 5 megapixels back facing camera. This camera also counts with a couple of interesting characteristics like auto-focus, flash and geo tagging.
This phone also includes a handful of useful features like Bluetooth (3.0) and GPS Geolocation, and a few sensors likeLight Sensor, Proximity Sensor and Accelerometer.
The HTC Desire V has a 1650 mAh medium sized Li-Ion removable battery, which is not really enough for a thirsty cellphone like this.
HTC is selling the HTC Desire V for 105 dollars, which is not a good offer for comparing with similar devices.
