There are photos online appeared of a midrange smartphone from HTC with the name Desire 616. This phone would be running on an octacore processor from MediaTek and boast a 5″screen with a resolution of 1280×720 pixels.
The details and photos have been published by the Chinese certification body Tenaa, and show in contrast to many other HTC’s no stereo speakers on the front; instead there seems to be a speaker on the back to sit. The phone seems to be made of red plastic.
Tenaa also mentions many details of the device. It would run on a octacore processor with a maximum clock speed of 1.7 GHz. This is likely to be the MTK6592, a soc from MediaTek, with eight Cortex A7 processor cores and a Mali 450 gpu from ARM. HTC presented earlier, a device with a MediaTek soc.
The phone has a 5″screen with a resolution of 1280×720 pixels. The screen is the same size as that of the Tuesday presented One (M8), but has a much lower resolution. The number of pixels per inch comes out to 293, compared to 441 at the new One. The bezels are about the same size; the Desire 616 is a bit less long, but wider.
The camera of the upcoming Desire 616 has a resolution of eight megapixels, the front camera can selfies with a maximum resolution of two megapixel. HTC has the phone itself is not yet announced. That a Chinese institute him clears, probably means that he is in the coming months in China suits. Or he also comes to the Netherlands is unknown, but the other Desire models like the of a MediaTek soc conditioned Desire 310 and the more expensive Desire 816 in the Netherlands. How much the Desire 616 would need to cost is unclear, but the similar Desire 610 will cost around 300 euro. Also, that device has yet to come true.
