HTC Desire Q 's size
The "HTC Desire Q" is 62.3mm wide, 118.5mm tall, and 9.3mm thick. At this size, a man with large hands would be able to operate it comfortably with one hand, but it may feel a bit large for a woman with small hands. In the case of the "HTC Desire Q", it weighs about 114.0g. The weight of this phone is such that you'll barely notice it at all even when using one-handed.

The screen quality of the "HTC Desire Q" is such that images and videos can occasionally be somewhat blurry. For general usage however, it's largely not a problem.
The camera function of HTC Desire Q

Overall assessment of HTC Desire Q
The "HTC Desire Q"'s performance level is that of a budget smartphone. It's a bit too weak to use as a main smartphone, so if possible you should consider something slightly more powerful. However, it should be sufficient for people that only want to use the most basic functions, like making calls and browsing the internet, and for people that don't really use smartphones much.
