    I give this phone a thumbs down because even though specs are great it is not ergonomic at all. The power key is in a stupid place and the glossy plastic is slippery, ugly and attracts smudges easily. I am very disappointed.

              Dear Wazid bro...i have read online on various websites a lot many user reviews on htc desire 816 and can confirm that some apps can be moved to sd card while others cannot...also file manager is not inbuilt in htc desire 816 and 3rd party file managers cannot edit the files on sd card....many apps developers have not updated their apps to work on kitkat so not all apps will work on it...the apps which have been updated can store their data directly on sd card....i would ask the users who have purchased htc desire 816 to confirm what i have read.... Jatin R is right you can use PC to move files to and from sd card....their is also a small hack which will let you save data on sd card and bypass the restriction of kitkat but that will void the warranty of handset

                  AnonD-272246, 11 Jun 2014please give me the real review about thi phone...is this gu... moreGadha bro... Its gd mbl.. it gt everythng.. camera is good, 1.5gb ram for multitasking is enough, gaming is smooth, some games like GTA not at all smooth.. anyways GTA is also nt smooth for pc.. den wt u xpect :p.. bt asphalt 8 runs smoothly on medium settings, at higher it giver littel lag smtyms..

                  Battery lasts 8 hour on continous screen on, wifi on, mobile network on, n heavy use..
                  I also used grand 2 both are equal in battery..
                  And htc desire 816 is bigger den the grand 2 in screen size, n processor clocked at 1.6ghz while grand 2 is 1.2ghz.. so its an huge diffrence.. im hving two htc desire 816.. n both giving same battery..
                  So the ppl who syin.. battery lasts 16 hour with heavy usage are the fools.. bt if u play n stop... Den yp it lasts 16 to 18 hour..

                  All depends on ur usage.. with medium usage it lasts full day..

                  Multitasking is smooth,

                  Mbl is big bt no difficulty to carry in pocket.

                  To be honest..
                  Camera day light 10/10
                  Low light n indoors 8/10 (better den grand 2)
                  Battery 9/10

                  1 sim slot.. support 2g n 3g.. 2g at 2.5g
                  And 3g at hspda.. nt higher den 7.2mbps
                  :)
                  I think its enough 3g..
                  if u want only 2g signal den use slot 2..
                  n rem slot 1 is little tight..
                  smtyms difficult to pull out the sim.. it stuck in it :p.. bt dnt wry press one or two time more den it will came..

                  ram usage after boot.. it only eat 400 to 430 mb ram..
                  but if u turn on the cam after dat ram usage will go high.. upto 600mb..

                  bt always it give u.. 600mb free at all the time..
                  and must restart ur mobiles atleast once in a day.. :)
                  gd lck all...

                          Whats the use of boom sound and sense 6 if your device has got only 3.75 Gb of internal memory and 1.3 Gb of ram.The hd display makes me laugh at it even my note 2 had a better display than this crap.The pictures captured by my note 2 in low light was better than this shit.The only thing you get is a bit fast speed.It is a total waste of money.

                            i was not satisfied with my htc desire 600 camera when i compared it to many mobile phones that has the same 8 pixels camera so does htc desire 816 has the same problem?

                              great phone ...superb interface response, camera, and speed. sound is good but not up to the expectation of boomsound clarity.
                              nyc selfies and lots of user friendly features ...a nice and bst prescribed phone under 25k
