Android version and market relevance

The company HTC in September 2013 officially announced its new smartphone HTC Desire 601 in the series of mobile devices Desire.

“Out of the box” on the new smartphone installed Android 4.2 Jelly Bean, which is updated to version 4.4 KitKat.

Screen, body and battery

TFT touchscreen with a diagonal 4.5″ mounted on the front panel HTC Desire 601, thickness 9.9 mm.

The battery in HTC Desire 601 is installed on 2 100 mAh. It can be said that by today′s standards, such a volume is inadequate, and you will miss one charge per day of active work.

Main camera and selfie camera

In front of the screen there is a selfie-camera on the 0.3 MP. Among all the cameras, this we attributed to the segment weak cameras. The main camera got 5 MP, located on the back of the body. We defined it in the segment very weak cameras at the moment. If you have a little more money, then we suggest adding and buying one of the camera phones, which we sorted separately in our catalog.

Processor and Internal Memory

A smartphone without a processor will not work. And the better the processor, the faster the smartphone works. HTC Desire 601 received 2-core processor Snapdragon 400. The amount of RAM in it is 1 GB.

But, more importantly, it′s the amount of built-in memory for storing your information (photo, video, music, etc.). Here you will receive 8 GB. You can still do this — buy a smartphone with a minimum amount of memory to save a bit, and buy a memory card microSD up to 64 GB, because in this model there is a slot for memory cards.

Price for HTC Desire 601: buy or not to buy?

So this is HTC Desire 601 after the official announcement. This novelty hit the middle-priced segment of smartphones.

Buy HTC Desire 601 you can after the beginning of official sales, which start in  October 2013. And now the price from the manufacturer is known — it′s $230 without taxes and fees. The price-to-feature ratio of this smartphone is not bad, because there is a good medium-sized screen, but a weak main camera, and the frontcamera is so-so.
