Under the hood sits a Snapdragon 600 chipset paired with 2 GB RAM, enough grunt for 2013-era Android multitasking, and it runs on Jelly Bean with a path to KitKat. The 5.0-inch Full HD Super LCD3 screen packs 441 ppi, sharp for its size, while a 3200 mAh battery gives it more staying power than most phones from the same year.

The rear camera is only 4 MP, but the sensor size is larger than typical for the era, aimed at better low-light performance rather than raw resolution. HTC Butterfly S price in Malaysia starts from RM1899. Storage is 16 GB with microSD support up to 64 GB, and Beats Audio tuning rounds out the sound setup.

NFC, infrared, and dual-band Wi-Fi are all onboard, making it reasonably well-equipped for its release period.
