Desire 610

HTC has just announced the Desire 610 smartphone right after the Desire 816 was unveiled at their MWC event a while ago. The smartphone is pretty much a smaller version of the Desire 816 with a toned down hardware specs sheet.

You can find the complete hardware details of the Desire 610 below:

  • 4.7 inch display with a resolution of 960 x 540 pixels.
  • 8 megapixel camera on the back and a 1.3 megapixel front camera.
  • 1.2 GHz Snapdragon 400 quad core chipset.
  • 1GB of RAM, 8GB of internal storage (expandable).
  • Android 4.3 Jelly Bean with Sense UI.
  • 4G LTE.
  • 2,040 mAh battery.

The Desire 610 will also ship with HTC’s proprietary BoomSound speakers on the front. It features an all plastic body, indicating that the pricing won’t be too extravagant. The handset will break cover in Europe and other global markets in May with no word on the pricing yet, and will be available in green, red, white, blue, black and grey color variants.
