The main features of the phone is 5.70' 2k display , snapdragon 821 processor coupled with 4 gb ram, 64 gb internel storege, andriod noughat , 3000 mah battery, 12 mp rear and 16 mp front camera. This phone comes in 58990 rupees.


This phone have unique eye catching look and display is very colourfull and very vibrant. Veiwing angles is really very good. Sound quality is really very nice. Performance of the phone is really very good. Camera quality is excellent in both day and night.


Phone looks very bulky cause of its weight and little bit slippery too. Battery life is average hardly survive one day in moderate usage.


Overall phone is good but it is very expensive and price comes where we have lot more option to purchase a powerfull smartpone compare to this.


MY ALL TIME DESIRE
Feb 13, 2017 06:55 PM1479 Views (via Android App)

Iam a very big fan of HTC products.because the quality they provide is really amazing and the mobile really worth the cost.


1.The picture quality is very good.the special and my favourite feature is the beats earphones.


2.The sound quality is really marvellous.


3.Lets talk about GUI, the icons and touch sensitivity are too good.


4.If you are a selfie type person this is the right one for you.just go for it.the picture clarity is too gud.even though you zoom in the clarity won't be distributed.


5.Overall my experience is WE DESERVE THE DESIRE


DONT BUY IT....
Jul 30, 2016 09:59 PM1839 Views

Not a good phone at all, started giving problems after 6 moths only, sometimes used to give a lag of 1 - 2 minutes for opening apps and can' download more than 3 - 4 apps if I want the phone to work fine. and now in less than 18 months it says that your circuit is shorted and it will cost you INR 5000 to repair it.total waste of money.


its the worst phone ever made.damn slow.keeps on loading.screen already gone twice in warrranty period. never expected such thing from HTC.

Worst phone ever of htc
Jun 07, 2016 11:21 PM2068 Views

HTC is a very gud brand in market and has a very gud value for it and I believe it. I have used htc desire u it was very worst phone .After 6 months of buyed that phone it was hanged . and the speed is very slow of this phone.its configiration is 700 MB ram. 1GZ. dual core. for normal user its gud. its ok ok to use. camera quality is not so gud only 5 mp.


Its Display was quit gud and looking wise it was nice. I has not much options there to explore and android version is 4(ice cream sandwich). no update available for the ram management . I think HTC is more towards the new phone rather than supporting the existing ones.


so in my opinion phone is not soo good and not soo bad.

Boring phone
Apr 01, 2016 05:31 PM2129 Views

I used this phone only for 2 month after that I sell this phone. This phone is to much boring, phone will give you good headache, extreme slow, hang problem occurs a lot. touch pad problem also occurs. sometime if any app we want to open the it will take time 2 3 minutes and internal memory is not shown in the phone setting.


Slow phone, it cause heat problem.


In this phone the RAM is only 512 MB that is not sufficient to run large size of application.


4 GB storage is not sufficient to store the data.

COSTLY but not EFFECTIVE.
Feb 24, 2016 08:19 PM2234 Views

I am utilizing this telephone from the previous 10 months, and unmistakably its not in the slightest degree even near its rivals, I just purchased this telephone in light of the high reaction and execution of htc telephones in business sector, yet all I got was just frustration, above all else it preparing speed,


Its excessively leggy, I am telling excessively leggy, you cannot utilize a facebook application with whatsapp on the other window as multitasking,


Ram is not in the sufficiently least as per these days necessity, just 512mb is insufficient, too moderate I ought to say, in short you cannot do multitasking in addition to too moderate.


Camera is not in any way great, just 5mp which is alright amid daytime generally excessively foggy amid night and notwithstanding evening as well.


I burned through 9k which is not in the slightest degree commendable,


lso, now its coming inexact of 8.5 thousand rupees which is futile as well, on the off chance that you having spending plan of rs 8000, I will recommend you to go for motorola telephones, even moto E is far superior than this, better speed and execution.


its excessively costly contrasting, making it impossible to the execution the telephone is giving.


With everything taken into account - I atone having made the buy and will hope to leave this item as quickly as time permits.


Htc desire u laggy ram
Feb 24, 2016 05:48 PM2125 Views

I purchases this mobile three months ago but there are many cons more than pros in this mobile.


Coming to the features of this mobile with 512 mb ram, singlecore processor, camera is good with 5mp back no front camera, its design is beautiful, not supported hd video format, sound quality is good beats audio performance is awesome. But its price is very high compared to other mobiles. At this price there are many other models far better than the other mobiles.

Not very good.. Not very Bad...
Feb 11, 2016 07:02 AM3038 Views

HTC is a very gud brand in market and has a very gud value for it and I believe it. I am using HTC desire X for almost 3+ years with NO issues. Yea specifications are very low compared to that of the current smarphones like 700 MB ram. 1GZ. dual core. for normal user its gud. Also hav this desire U. but this mobile is no where near to the Desire X.


Very Laggy as fellow people said. very low specs. Display is awesome.HTC sense is awesome. not much options there to explore and android version is 4(ice cream sandwich). no update available for the ram management . I think HTC is more towards the new phone rather than supporting the existing ones. Very bad support them.Not recommended:(

Too laggy,worst phone from htc
Feb 11, 2016 06:38 AM3261 Views (via iOS App)

I am using this phone from the past 6 months, and clearly its not at all even close to its competitors, I only bought this phone because of the high repo and performance of htc phones in market, but all I got was only disappointment,


First of all it processing speed, Its too laggy, I am telling too laggy, you cant even use a facebook app with whatsapp on the other window as multitasking, ram is not at all enough according to nowadays requirement,


only 512mb is not enough, too slow I should say, in short you cant do multitasking plus too slow.


Camera is not at all good, only 5mp which is okay during daytime otherwise too blurry during night and even evening too.


I spent 9k which is not at all worthy, and now its coming approximate of 8.5 thousand rupees which is useless too, if you having budget of rs 8000, I will suggest you to go for motorola phones, even moto E is far far better than this, better speed and performance.


Its too expensive comparing to the performance the phone is giving.


Worst phone ever
Jan 27, 2016 10:09 PM2639 Views (via Android App)

I have this phone since last 1 year.


And it is very laggy and it has very low internal storage and low android version.


I bought this phone at 9.5 k but I didnt get right phone at this price instead of this I should buy zenfone 2 better than this phone


Light weight pocket friendly
Apr 29, 2015 02:28 PM3204 Views

This light weight pocket friendly smartphone comes with  4.00-inch 480x800 display and  integrated with  1GHz processor with 512MB RAM and 5-megapixel rear camera. This is the best acceptable phone in this range. Beacuse of  its small dimension 118.5 x 62.3 x 9.3 mm it is accepted widely.


It 5 MP front camera with resolution of 2592?1944 pixels allows to capture clear and bright picture as well as vedios.Picture quality is nice .  This phone don’t have front end camera so it is not best suited for selfie lovers.when it comes to performance its 1GHz processor with 512 mb RAM gives  good computing experience.At tlow price range its peromance is decent


Its 4.00 inch screen with capacitive touch sccren give nice experience to user. resoultion is also acceptable which is 480x800 pixels with 233 PPI. It comes with inbuilt 4 GB of physical storage which can be extended upto 32 GB which is quite good to store day to day needs.It comes with Android 4.0 with java suppot and HTMl browser suppot which quite notcable one.


Overall I would like to recommend this phone at this price rang which is very much affordable smartphone.

Poor Performance ; Bad Customer Service at Thane
Jul 22, 2014 07:37 PM3797 Views

HTC products look - 10 out of 10.(exceptionally great)


Product Performance of HTC Desire U -   3 out of 10.(I am really being generous here)


Battery Performance -    2 out of 10.


Design -   2 out of 10.


I know I am no expert on cellphones - but above ratings are from a user who has used sony/samsung wave/ Apple/ LG / nokia phones in the past.


Saved contacts appear as "unknown" in my call logs and received SMS! Such is the poor quality of the software inbuilt. It takes me well over 6-8 seconds for me to make a call after selecting the contact from the search contacts page. Search contacts itself provides results literally after ages. and the best part is that the contact does not show unless you go to the specific contact group where you saved the contact!


It is frustrating to use the product to say the least.


It took me some while to figure out how to activate both sim cards in the phone. - some settings were required. and then for a little while I could use both simcards in the phone. however I don't know whether to blame the phone for poor network in either of the two sim cards. maybe it was poor network . or I sincerely don't know if I can blame the phone for that. Probably if I did not have other problems - I would have managed this issue.


All in all - I repent having made the purchase and will look to exit this product as soon as possible.


Have you ever tried getting phone serviced at HTC
Oct 29, 2013 03:18 PM1450 Views

Ever tried or had the misfortune of walking to the HTC authorized service center at Bangalore. Most awful experience. You are sure to hear one or more of the following sentences. Guess it comes from a template.


1) Battery has a problem - You are charging it excessively. Don't charge overnight.


2) You will be whispered into - Strain your ears to understand what they are saying.


3) Please bring the bill copy and we will see to it. This is despite phones being tracked with IMEI.


Once you have left your phone with them, there is no way of reaching them again. The official phone number - 080 - 40913947 is kept off the hook and is ever engaged. The phone rings to its glory once the office is closed.


Strongly recommend not to buy any HTC product.

Beware of faulty model
Jul 08, 2013 04:23 PM2005 Views

All I can tell about his phone that I was comparing HTC Desire U Stelth Black with Dual SIM with Samsung galaxy S duos. I have been using various different models of smart phones for past 6-7 years. So I just wanted a reliable smart phone, my current phone HTC Wildfire is more than satisfactory. So I choose HTC again; over Samsung. I have never used any Samsung phone in last 12-13 years. I was so much hooked onto the stealth black looks of Desire U. I used it for some 10-12 days without any issue. But few days back, it stopped working just out of blue moon. Every attempt to resurrect it was futile. I took it to Reddington service center in Okhla, as its warranty is still applicable. The service engineer told me that phone's motherboard is faulty and they will replace the whole motherboard. They would take some 10-15 working days to repair the defect. As of now I am back to HTC Wildfire.


I would update you once I get back the repaired Desire U.
