HTC Desire 500 likely to be prices at Rs.24,000

The HTC Desire 500 which was launched in Taiwan on Tuesday is likely to be priced at Rs.24,000. Although the company has yet to reveal its market price but according to gadget experts and the standard product pricing, its pricing is expected to be close to Rs.24,000.

 

The biggest strength of HTC Desire 500 is its Sense 5 and what it has missed out from the earlier One is BoomSound. For the company, the logic is clear. It wants to add more visual treat than the audio pleasure.

 

It was only last week when the company had launched HTC One mini which was well received by the market. The smartphone is expected to be available in India only after September, although it will make its foray into selected market from August itself.

 

The mid-ranged smartphone is mainly meant for the youngsters and the office-goers. It has incorporated most of the features needed for fun and work both. Powered by 1.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon200 quad-core processor and 1GB of RAM, its performance is as good as any brand's smartphone.

 

The dimension of the HTC One is 131.8x66.9x9.9mm and it weighs 123g. Both the parameters meet the standard requirements of its fee-good handling. Its 4GB internal storage can be further expanded up to 64GB with a microSD card.

 

A 4.3-inch WVGA display which provides a resolution of 480x800 pixels would offer quite a good eye-pleasing experience. The 8-megapixel rear camera which is accompanied by an LED flash and a 1.6-megapixel front camera are capable of capturing good resolution photographs.
