We've conducted a detailed review of the HTC Desire Q, looking into its battery, how easy it is to use the camera, and whether the CPU performance is high or low. Not only that, but we've also evaluated how portable and easy to hold it is, as well as how nice the display is.

Features, Performance, and Reviews for the HTC Desire Q

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. As such, you shouldn't have any problems using it even for long periods of time.

Both the size and weight of the "HTC Desire Q" make it easy to hold in your hand and are unlikely to cause any trouble when you use it normally.

The CPU performance of HTC Desire Q

The processing performance of the "HTC Desire Q" is quite low at 1.0GHz×1(1.0-cores), and you may find minor issues even while browsing the internet or Twitter.

The "HTC Desire Q" only has 512.0MB of RAM, which is fairly low. The RAM is regularly insufficient, so operation gets unstable and jerky even when using apps that are not resource intensive.

In rating the "HTC Desire Q"'s overall operational speed, it ranks at the low end of smartphones. It will lag and feel sluggish even during normal use. In most cases, users will feel the performance to be lacking.

HTC Desire Q 's storage capacity

The "HTC Desire Q" has 4.0GB of data storage. This is fine if you mainly use email or social media sites, but if you plan to take photos and videos or play games, you should buy an upgrade.

Since the "HTC Desire Q" is compatible with SD cards, you'll be able to easily expand your storage capacity; you won't need to worry about how much internal space it has.

HTC Desire Q 's screen

The "HTC Desire Q" has a 4.0inch screen. It comes in a standard size, and the screen is adequate for most uses. Some users may feel that they would rather have a larger screen, however.

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

The performance of the "HTC Desire Q"'s main camera is rather low with only 5.0MP pixels. If you take a lot of pictures, then you'll likely be dissatisfied with what this camera has to offer.

The battery performance of HTC Desire Q

The battery of the "HTC Desire Q" has a capacity of 1650.0mAh, which is rather low. Compared to other smartphones, the battery life of the "HTC Desire Q" is not very good. It's okay if you're just using it for calls and the occasional bit of browsing, but if you're going to browse for extended periods, play games or watch videos, you want a reserve battery pack.

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.

The merits and demerits of HTC Desire Q
