HTC Desire 820 Hands-On

2014-10-31
what's going on guys a Marklin sanger from TechnoBuffalo and originally going to do an unboxing of this guy the HTC Desire 820 well this is the box it came in and it's in box so since this didn't really come in its retail packaging we thought we could give you guys a hands-on and first impression video so let's get started so this is HTC Desire 820 it's HTC's low-end to mid-range device and from the get-go it looks like a typical HTC device you've got your dual front-facing speakers here as well as the front-facing camera on the upper left now HTC is one of those companies that really receive complaints as far the design aspect of their devices go and that should continue with the Desire 820 as well the Desire 820 comes in a slew of different colors and to me it's very reminiscent of the iPhone 5c due to its polycarbonate shell and unibody design think of it as a bigger 5c that's running Android so the Desire 820 may not sport the premium design and build quality of its cousin the One m8 but the two-tone design looks really good at my opinion and believe it or not I actually prefer the polycarbonate body over the one that made so in terms of specs you're getting a 5.5 inch IPS LCD display with the resolution of 1280 by 720 and the display itself is decent now the Desire 820 is also equipped with HTC's boomsound speakers which I think absolutely sounds incredible and under the hood it features an octa-core Snapdragon 615 with 64-bit support and big.little architecture which we will talk about a little bit later in a video as LTE support which is great and cat for LTE for those network that support this kind of LTE it also has 2 gigabytes of RAM on board and backed by the audrina 405 GPU it also sports a somewhat decent 2600 milliamp non-removable battery and you get 16 gigabyte of expandable storage via microSD card it's running Android 4.4.4 out of the box of course with HTC Sense 6 on top of it and in terms of cameras it features a 13 megapixel camera in the back with an F 2.2 aperture which is similar to what the desire 816 featured in an 8 megapixel front-facing camera which is great for taking selfies now coming back to its processor essentially what that big little architecture means is that those 8 cores inside this phone will into two groups one is running at 1.5 gigahertz for more intense tasks and the other one is running at 1 gigahertz for things that doesn't really require as much power of course with all of these performance improvements it'll be more noticeable once a Desire 820 is upgraded to Android lollipop so after playing with the Desire 820 for a few hours I came to realize that this is a pretty decent phone even though it's only sporting mid-range specs it's a device I think a lot of people will appreciate as a solid alternative to HTC's more expensive flagship devices anyways I hope you guys enjoyed this quick video if you guys would like to see anything in particular about this device just let us know in the comments down below make sure to check us out at TechnoBuffalo comm and as always I'll see you guys in the next video thank you guys so much for watching this video and if you guys would like to see more tech related videos make sure to hit that subscribe button down below and we're also on twitch so make sure to check us out at twitch TV slash TechnoBuffalo
