While most of the time, the performance of HTC Desire 616 was smooth, it did lag a couple of times. For this price, the RAM should have been higher. - Issue Date: Aug 31, 2014Read more

HTC Desire 616 - Pros & Cons

HTC Desire 616

Pros

  • The UI is very stable and we
  • the chipset performs well in benchmark tests
  • primary camera performs well and is quite good on sharpness and colour reproduction
  • tactile feedback of these buttons is pretty good

Cons

  • grainy and shaky pictures
  • It is chunky and does not have a lot of features
  • the depth of field feature is missing
  • it skipped a few frames
  • Images shot in low light were not usable
  • Videos captured at 1080p also suffered in our daylight testing
  • Nobody needs so many cores on a smartphone as it is quite pointless
  • the software seems to have come from some Chinese Android
  • it s a real fingerprint magnet
  • the camera is not perfect
  • loss of 25% in battery which is again a bit disappointing
