HTC Welcome A New Desire In The Lineup, The Desire 820

HTC have revealed their newest member in the Desire family, the Desire 820, the second HTC phone with a 64-bit processor.

The successor to the Desire 816 rocks the same display but runs on the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 (MSM8939), which has an octa-core CPU with eight Cortex-A53 cores, four of them clocked at 1.5GHz and four at 1.0GHz, along with Adreno 405 GPU. HTC have promised that they will update the phone to Android L which also makes use of the 64-bit architecture.

The Desire 820 has a 5.5-inch, 1280x720px display, 13 megapixel rear camera, 8 megapixel front camera, and BoomSound speakers. The phone will offer Cat 4 LTE connectivity.

The phone will be available in a very wide range of colours: Marble White, Tuxedo Grey, Santorini White, Milky-way Grey, Tangerine White, Saffron Grey, Flamingo Grey, Blue Mist, and Monarch Orange. The phone might be available by the end of September and some markets may also get a taste of the dual sim variant.
