          AnonD-260947, 18 May 2014Brother in most of the site it shows single sim.Brother HTC launched this model as dual sim in India.. so dual sim is certain... single sim is now coming as a variant I guess, unlike reverse case with other mobiles

              Rahul, 18 May 2014Just wait for one or two day Gsmarena is doing battery tes... moreThe endurance rating for HTC one M8 is 71 hrs which is damn good althought I havent seen real world performance..

              HTc desire 816 has same battery as one m8 and similar software setup.. Plus it has low res screen and slower processor.. so battery should be better...
              Now here is a catch,.. It is a dual sim.. Dual sim phones are notorious in sucking battery as two sims constantly search for networks and similar things..
              I have a nokia asha 210 which has battery life of 3 days on standby in real performance.. But lets say when i am travelling, and both simcards are searching for netwrks, the battery may even drain in a single night.. So be careful in analyzing ur HTC desire 816 battery performance..

                  Alim, 18 May 2014Hi, I have been using this phone for last 3 days. i bought ... moreHey! Its too early to judge the battery life in 3 days. At least test your phone for 14 days. Also try to maintain healthy charging cycles. Your phone is new, so initially battery will take some time to settle in..Give it some time rather than screwing it!

                  @General comment:
                  I don't feel like spending 45k on One m8..Seems too damn senseless..It seems to be a style statement only these days to have expensive phones. I have been using HTC Sensation from last 2 years. Have Vipers 5 ROM on it (Sense 5, Jelly been, etc.). I can manage with 2 years old specs without sweat..! My question is what different can you do with M8 by paying double price?? :o

                  On other hand: Moto E at 7k has Gorilla glass 3...Why no Gorilla glass on HTC at 23k?!! HTC whats wrong with you!!

                      Anonymous, 18 May 2014Is it cdma+gsm or gsm+gsm???Both,
                      SIM1- CDMA/GSM HSPA upto 42mbps and EVDO upto 3.1 mbps
                      SIM2- GSM only, EDGE upto 236kbps

                      So you can use the handset as CDMA+GSM or GSM+GSM

                            AnonD-260879, 17 May 2014The battery life of desire 816 is getting positive reviews.... moreHi, I have been using this phone for last 3 days. i bought it from Dhaka Bangladesh at 29000 Taka.Everything else is ok for me within this price range but the battery backup is very poor I must say.I have lost 40% in 8hours just for normal use-few photos taken,hardly 1 hour web browsing in 3G,no song movie,apps downloaded,power saving mode was on, No GPS used but still battery drains very fast.So please dont buy this phone if you dont want to charge this phone twice a day...I will be happy if any real usercan prove me wrong
