I have just got it (March 2018) and I must say it exceeded my expectations. Updated RIGHT away to Android 6.0.1, have hot used it with KitKat at all.
After I have installed all the basic applications that I use (Navigation, e-mail, banking, Insta, Twitter, home utilities apps, backgammon etc), still have 6 GB free and it runs PERFECT smooth. NO FACEBOOK OR WhatsApp since those apps kill any phone (grow in memory like crazy) and I don't use those since they are crap social networks.
THE USER INTERFACE is awesome, intuitive and a joy to use - very fast and smooth. The Screen is not the best but is very good, no LAG and I like the lower resolution since it drains less juice. The case is very nice to the touch and seems tough and well made (i hate glass and metal cases).
The battery could have been bigger but it's enough (I dont't like non removable!).
The camera is OK, but I don't care about cameras in Phones.
So it's a really nice phone to use, has more than enough CPU POWER for all day to day apps, has fast software and user interface and I like it a lot!
It will be perfect as long as you don't fill up the memory and do a FACTORY RESET AFTER OS UPDATE!!!

      Excellent phone, must buy. I purchased this phone when it got launched at 25000/-.& believe me its worth spending that much. its more than 3.5 yrs & phone is working excellent. Many time it fallen from my hands but still, no issues till now, working superb.
      Camera is excellent , fast performance, the screen size is just perfect length & breath wise , sleek , stylish & attractive design.
      A must must !! buy phone !!!

                        Used this phone for 16 months. Didn't have a good experience. The battery life is really useless. First 6 months was good then it just started draining. Towards the end it just switched off around 40% .
                        Sometime when a lot of messages come on WhatsApp the phone died.
                        The touch started lagging .
                        The HTC phone didn't recognise the charger it came with after 8 months, said charging slow please use the original charger. Even though I used that. Maybe it's a problem with that particular charger though, I'm not sure.

                          The HTC Desire 820 is a terrible phone. It overheats and reboot consistently. It makes a horrible and embarrassing siren-like sound when the battery level is at 15%. This is the worse phone I have used. I heard HTC phones has battery issue and this has proved it to me.

                                Jio works fine. Remember to insert the jio sim in the first slot.

                                  My HTC Desire 820 dual sim stoped working just a year after purchase. I couldn't even claim warranty just by a few days. First one of the sim slots went bad. It would just not detect the sim. So I started to use the 2nd sim slot which also went bad in a few days. Also my phone started to shutdown automatically. And finally it shutdown and never come back to life. I took it to HTC SERVICE and they told me that the mother board needs to be replaced and it would cost me ₹10K plus taxes. I said No and just bought a new phone for that money. Very bad experience and looks like this phone in particular has a problem as per what the service guy told me. I wouldn't recommend this phone.
