Purchased this Phone almost 5 months back and i'm happy with the phone performances but isn't much satisfied when I compare this phone with other phones which have a decent look and better battery performances. This phone has 2GB RAM and has 16GB internal storage for users but i feel it is pretty less for modern day smartphones and you will be shocked to know that this does not support LTE services in any of the sim slot but still it is quite good in camera performances.
Pros
- 1. Dual Sim Supported
- 2. Stereo Speakers
- 3. HTC Sense UI
- 4. Good Camera Performances
Cons
- 1.Poor Battery Backup
- 2. Heating Issues
- 3. LTE not Supported
- 4. No NFC Connectivity
- 5. Scratches on Back Panel are Frequent
