HTC Desire 610

Specs-wise, this one sits firmly in entry-level territory. A Snapdragon 400 chipset paired with just 1 GB RAM handles basic tasks but won't do much multitasking, and the 8 GB internal storage fills up fast, though microSD support up to 128 GB helps offset that. The 4.7-inch screen runs at 540 x 960 pixels, which is modest even by 2014 standards, and it's wrapped in HTC's Sense UI 5.5 over Android KitKat.

Camera duties fall to an 8 MP rear sensor with autofocus and LED flash, capable of 1080p video, while the front camera is a basic 1.3 MP unit for video calls. Stereo speakers are a nice touch for a phone at this level. HTC Desire 610 price in Malaysia starts from RM930.

Battery capacity is 2040 mAh, non-removable, which was fairly standard for the phone's era and screen size. It supports LTE, NFC, and GPS with GLONASS, so connectivity options are decent despite the dated internals. Colour choices include Black, White, Red, Gray, and Green.
