The company HTC released in 2015 the budget device 326G. Like most smartphones, the device has an unbalanced price-performance ratio. So what is this device capable of?
Design
The device is made in the usual style for the company. It is not difficult to identify a representative of a well-known brand on the phone. The smartphone is made entirely of plastic, which is to be expected from the inexpensive HTC Desire 326G Dual Sim. The review of the case attracts attention with a glossy shine. This definitely adds brightness to the device, but makes the phone slippery.
The devices of the company differ in assembly and quality. However, in cheap devices there are often gaps and creaks, and the HTC Desire 326G Dual Sim device was no exception. An overview of the assembly notes minor creaks in the case, especially with pressure on the rear panel. Although the reliability of the device is not in doubt. With bumps and falls, the device copes without any noticeable consequences.
On the side of the device is a volume and power button. The front part was assigned to the speakers, camera, screen, sensors, indicator and logo. The control elements of the device are touch-sensitive and are located at the bottom of the display. The headphone jack was placed on the end on top, and the microphone and USB connector on the bottom. On the rear glossy panel is the HTC logo, camera and flash.
Model 326G is not very overall and weighs only 146 grams. The thickness of the device, as much as 9.7 mm, is a bit confusing, but this is a forgivable flaw. Weight hints that the user can work with the device with one hand. However, the slippery surface prevents this, the phone constantly tries to slip out.
Display
The company has not installed the best screen on the HTC Desire 326G Dual Sim. The review of the display causes only bewilderment and misunderstanding. The model uses a diagonal corresponding to the dimensions, 4.5 inches. Resolution is also acceptable, namely 854 by 480 pixels. These characteristics correspond to the price.
The main drawback is the HTC Desire 326G Dual Sim TFT matrix. The overview of the corners corresponds to the devices of 2012-1013. Even with a slight tilt, the picture is distorted. The problem will be working with the device in the sun. Constant flare and loss of brightness, this is what the user will be forced to face. The 326G screen is definitely not the best solution of the company, especially in 2015.
Camera
The manufacturer equipped the model with a main matrix of 8 megapixels. But what is the picture quality of the HTC Desire 326G Dual Sim Black? The camera review will not particularly surprise the user. Shooting modes are standard and there are no special "chips" in the phone. Although 326G is equipped with an 8 megapixel sensor, the quality of the photo does not correspond to this characteristic.
There are a lot of noise in the pictures. Lame and image detail. Deficiencies are present in any photo, regardless of lighting. Unfortunately, HTC’s savings have noticeably affected the camera, and not for the better.
Equipped with a device and frontal. As the front camera, a 2 megapixel module is used. The front camera has the same problems as the main matrix. Of course, the camera is suitable for video calls, but there will be problems with self-portraits.
Not without the device and without recording videos. The smartphone shoots video with 30 frames per second and a resolution of 1920 by 1080. The video is dominated by blue, but overall, the quality is not bad.
Hardware
Installed "filling" is quite consistent with the price of HTC Desire 326G Dual Sim White. The review of "iron" will satisfy the undemanding user. As a processor, the manufacturer installed a quad-core Spreadtrum with an operating frequency of as much as 1.2 GHz. The hardware can easily cope with everyday tasks.
The user is forced to forget about demanding games, as a cheap Mali-400 MP2 video accelerator is installed in the device. The chip will provide adequate video viewing and casual applications, but you should not expect more.
The manufacturer installed a gigabyte of RAM in the smartphone HTC Desire 326G Dual Sim. A review of the memory hints that the device cannot solve resource-intensive tasks. However, the phone will provide fast work of programs and switching between them.
The native memory in the device is 8 GB, and a little more than 4 GB is available for use. Embedded applications and the system take up a significant amount of space. You can increase the capacity due to a flash drive up to 32 GB. Unfortunately, memory for applications cannot be expanded.
System
The device runs on the Android OS 4.4. The version is not the latest and most likely there will be no upgrade to 5.0. On top of the “Android” installed proprietary interface HTC. The system is perfectly adapted, and a good "filling" ensures the absence of freezes. The only drawback of the system is the memory limit for programs.
Communication
The device supports 3G and work in popular networks. Equipped with a Wi-Fi device, 4.1 Bluetooth module, as well as GPS and A-GPS. The speaker provides excellent sound quality. It should be noted and the possibility of using two SIM cards. Unfortunately, there is only one radio module, so the second SIM card is disconnected during a call.
Autonomy
The 326G battery capacity is only 2000 mAh. The battery seems weak, however, it is not. A small display with low characteristics and a budget "stuffing" do not differ in high energy consumption. When making calls, the phone will work for 2 days, and the use of wireless networks will reduce the “life” of the battery to a day. The autonomy indicator is not bad, especially for a cheap device.
Price
The main problem of the company is overpriced. This drawback is especially noticeable in budget devices. Phone Overview HTC Desire 326G Dual Sim reports poor performance, but the price is high. The device costs 7-7.5 thousand rubles, which absolutely does not match the capabilities of 326G.
Total
Desire 326G can satisfy most needs. The presence of wireless networks, two cards and good hardware makes the device attractive. However, all the advantages are leveled by inflated value. The greed of the manufacturer significantly reduces the popularity of the phone.
