Everything noted, we think that the HTC Desire 616 is overpriced for its Rs. 16,500 price tag. It is good for sending emails, surfing the net and running apps and games, but it lags behind some of the other devices as far as the screen and audio are conce...

It might be an octa-core device with competent hardware but at this price, its hard for us justify its value and recommend you to buy one either when you have the likes of Xiaomi and Motorola around in this space. HTC has its work cut out in this segment...

Below average camera performance, Low earpiece volume, Inconsistent design
As we've already stated, the arrival of the Xiaomi Mi 3 (review) at a throwaway price has changed the entire market's dynamics. The Mi 3, with its blazing fast performance, looks like it offers better value at Rs. 13,999 than the Desire 616 Dual SIM does ...
