Specs here place it firmly in entry-level territory. A dual-core 1 GHz Cortex-A5 chip on the Snapdragon S4 Play platform handles basic tasks, paired with just 512 MB RAM and 4 GB storage, though microSD support up to 32 GB helps offset the tight space. The 4.3-inch TFT display runs at 480 x 800 pixels, around 217 ppi, fine for everyday use but nothing sharp by modern standards.
The rear camera is a 5 MP unit with autofocus, and there's a VGA front camera for basic selfies and video calls. A 1650 mAh battery keeps the whole thing running, and it ships with Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean under HTC's Sense UI 5.0 layer. HTC Desire 300 price in Malaysia starts from RM524.
It's a phone built for light use: calls, messaging, browsing. Wi-Fi, GPS and HSPA data round out the connectivity, and at 120g it's easy enough to carry around all day.
