it a beauty

Narendra Chandana (May 6, 2014) on Gadgets 360

I did not used this phone for myself but my friend bought this and I used to play with it. At first when he said he want to buy a mobile at a prize 15k to 20k, I blindly went on with on specifications and suggested samsung galaxy Grand which cost 4k more than this device. later when I went to showroom with him, I found that this is much better device than galaxy grand. we took some photos and 5MP camera of HTC Desire V gave better photos than Grand's 8MP camera. Also the display quality is better on HTC than on Grand. lastly on the part of design and look, HTC Desire V definitely beats Grand. now the hardware on this device is outdated, and there is no front cam for video calling, but back then I felt wonderful using it. great performance great device.
