HTC Desire 820s With 64-Bit MediaTek Octa-Core SoC Launched
HTC
on Tuesday announced a variant of the Desire 820, dubbed the HTC Desire
820s, on its Weibo account. HTC hasn't detailed the price and
availability of the Desire 820s, nor if it will be sold outside of
China.
The Desire 820s packs almost identical specifications to
the Desire 820, apart from sporting a 64-bit 1.7GHz octa-core MediaTek
MT6752 processor with 4G LTE connectivity and Mali T760 GPU instead of
the 64-bit octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 SoC (1.5GHz quad-core +
1.0GHz quad-core) of the original. The octa-core MediaTek SoC is coupled
with 2GB of RAM, as per the Weibo post
by HTC.
The dual-SIM HTC Desire 820s runs Android 4.4 KitKat and
features a 5.5-inch HD (720x1280 pixels) display. It packs a
13-megapixel rear camera with LED flash, and an 8-megapixel secondary
front-facing camera, just like the Desire 820.
