At CES early this year HTC unveiled a successor to the Desire 820. The new phone - HTC Desire 826 - will go on sale in China this Thursday (January 29) at CNY 2,300 ($370/€325) for the 16GB version and CNY 2,500 ($400/€350) for the 32GB one. The phone will launch simultaneously on HTC's web store, JD.com, Suning Tesco and Lynx. Note that some stores will carry only one of the two versions. Note that the older Desire 820 is CNY 2,000. The HTC Desire 826 updates the 5.5" 720p screen of its predecessor to 1080p resolution, makes the jump to Android 5.0 Lollipop (to make full use of the 64-bit Snapdragon 615 chipset) and switches out the 8MP selfie camera for a 4MP UltraPixel one. The main camera is a 13MP shooter, the phone has LTE and optional dual-SIM connectivity. After China, the phone will expand across the Asia-Pacific region. It's not clear if it will get a global rollout or not. Source (in Chinese) |...
