TechRadar - "HTC has given the Desire 820 some really interesting party pieces in the form of a 64-bit processor, an 8MP selfie camera and low price tag, yet somehow misses its mark by some distance."
HTC's second 'mid-range flagship' this year is a solid improvement in almost every area
The past year has seen the HTC Desire range — the Taiwanese manufacturer's line of mid-range handsets — expanded to cover everything from the super-cheap Desire 510 to the selfie-centric Desire EYE. And with it, HTC has introduced a new, unashamedly plastic design language, while keeping software performance and features mostly in line with the flagship HTC One.
Techprezz: HTC is adding more to its mid-rangers and the company has introduced new one on its Desire lineup dubbed Desire 820 . The device was unveiled at IFA 2014.
Although HTC is far from being the largest Android smartphone manufacturer around, throughout the years the Taiwanese company managed to stand out from the crowd by being the first to adopt and introduce new features. Back in 2008 HTC was the first manufacturer to introduce the Android OS to the smartphone market with the help of the HTC Dream (also known as the T-Mobile G1). A few years later, the first 1080p smartphone display made its way towards consumers via the original HTC Butterfly. Not only that, but the HTC One X also became the 1st Android device to make use of a primary camera with an f/2 aperture.
That's awesome , because there are so many killer apps that use Apple's 64 bit chip to create all kinds of awesomeness.
