I really liked the specs of HTC desire 816. But I have certain concerns:
1) It has an in built battery . Does this pose a problem? that is if the battery conks off, you may have to replace the entire phone.
2)HTC does not have many service centres as samsung has. Do I have to worry about this?
3) In terms of longevity or durability of HTC phones
4)Various sellers of phone shops say that htc has compatibilty issues. All parts within it do not belong to the company and hence may be incompatible.
5) That the phone gets heated up
All these negative points have been raised by the salesmen in various mobile shops. Are they dissuading me from buying HTC for their own ulterior motives or is it really so.
Pl do reply to my queries
Thank you

Hi to everyone. It has been close to 5 days since i bought this beauty and it definitely needs an appreciation. (Btw i got this phone from sangeetha mobiles in chennai for 23k. OMG, the store guy gave me an power bank free of cost which has a battery of 2600Mah i.e the same power as that of the phone. He also gave one year extended warranty free of cost which also covered defect due to water logging which is generally not covered in the manufacturer warranty. This is awesome :)....
I went for the white color and one word to say abt it - ITS SEXY.... But sadly i had a lil scratch on the rear paner besides the camera....
The phone is not at all bulky and infact i was surprised by its weight and it fits perfectly in the jeans pocket or shorts....
The processor is simply awesome.... I am a heavy user and an avid gamer. I have used micromax canvas 2 previously and before that used xperia neo V. After using such laggy phones for quite some time, every time when i press the home button or when i make a call or when i open any apps, it opens within blink of an eye. I am yet to face any lag issue (and hope not to find any further)....
The camera does its job decently. I used the free flip cover that was given with the phone. When i took photos with flash, i found the photos to be too exposed to flash. I tried to use all the settings in the phone but was unable to find an solution to the over flash exposure. Then all of a suddent thought of removing the flipcover and took a phot with the flash and VIOLA the picture was perfect. So my piece of advise would be to remove the phone from the flipcover if u want to take photos especially with flash....
The battery is really good. I am just using a single sim with 3g fully on and i am getting close to 18-20 hrs of life....
Hence to sum up, this phone really met all my expectations of owning a decent phone without any lag and decent camera. Kudos to HTC for bringing out such a gem....
Cheers!!!!

The HTC India website says in specifications that the dual sim version of Desire 816 supports 3G only for CDMA sim. For GSM sim it supports only 2.5G i.e GPRS/EDGE. Is that true?
Does that mean I cannot put in my current GSM sim and use 3G from it?
