HTC’s got an affordable option headed to the UK with their latest smartphone announcement this morning. It’s the Desire 320, a 4.5-inch 854 x 480 smartphone that has a 5 megapixel camera, a quad-core MediaTek processor, 1GB of RAM, 5 megapixel rear camera, VGA front camera and 8GB of internal storage.
The HTC Desire 320 will come to market with Android 4.4 KitKat and should feature the best of HTC’s software experience such as BlinkFeed and Video Highlights, though we understandably won’t be treated to the full suite of goods featured on something like the HTC One M8 or the upcoming HTC Hima.
It should be quite the looker for those new to the smartphone scene and don’t want to spend an unseemly amount of cash on their first device, though, so stay on the lookout for its arrival at some point in the early going of 2015 if you fit that bill.
I understand it’s a budget handset, but it seems odd to keep the screen resolution so low whilst the actual screen size is so (relatively) large. 800×480 can’t look good on a 4.5″ screen can it?
