Preparing to release HTC Desire 516 and Desire 316

This year, HTC intend to seriously address its image , starting with the implementation of its own promises . Back in 2013, the company has promised

to shift the focus and pay attention not only flagships , but also the middle and lower price segment . For nearly the past three months , the Taiwanese announced some relatively affordable model , and it seems almost ready to start selling a couple more : HTC Desire and Desire 516 316.

Source of information about the imminent announcement of a new line of smartphone Desire served as the organization's website TENAA, responsible for the certification of telecommunication facilities falling in China . In the pictures that are part of the documentation , simple smartphone externally rectangular blue glossy casing (certainly there will be other colors ) , belonging to the HTC which give only company logos . It does not feel "breed" , prominent in the Desire 816 and 610 , is a typical " consumer goods " and are developed by Taiwanese saved on design. In fact , Desire 516 - Desire 310 sibling , characterized by large dimensions . We arrived on the certification under the screen version is a block of three control buttons ( one of which is not " multitasking " and "menu" ) , most likely they will remain and the final version .

HTC Desire display 516 at a diagonal of 5 inches has a resolution of qHD ( 960 × 540 ), so that miracles from it is not worth waiting .

 Weight decent smartphone even with the dimensions (140x72x9, 7 mm) - 173 grams . There are a couple of cameras : front (VGA) and the main with a resolution of 5 megapixels. Technologically, there will be two versions of the new smartphone available , differing from each other by the "hardware ." Desire 516w will boast a quad-core processor with a frequency of 1.3 GHz ( likely , MediaTek), 512 MB ​​of RAM and Android 4.2 inside. This version of the smartphone will be sold in China Mobile. In Desire 516t worth waiting for quad same chip , but with a frequency of 1.2 GHz ( from Qualcomm?), 1 GB of RAM and Android 4.3. Apparently, the shell Sense in both smartphones will not only feed BlinkFeed, which again suggests that their relationship with Desire 310.

But about 316 Desire very little is known , it is only mentioned in the advertising banner Desire 516 as its counterpart. Resource Xdkb.net believes that the main difference between low-end model will be the lack of support work with two SIM-cards . However, this is only an assumption , and such a scheme in the names of Taiwanese uncharacteristic .

It seems , HTC Desire intend to send 516 and some European markets , although the exact timing and pricing of the product is not. Will the output of these devices is extremely cheap and the increasing awareness of the company's sales ? Do not dilute the concept of HTC brand as "top" of smartphones ?
