A Snapdragon 615 chipset sits at the core of this one, pairing four 1.5GHz Cortex-A53 cores with four 1.0GHz cores and an Adreno 405 GPU. That's paired with 2GB RAM and 16GB storage, expandable up to 128GB via microSD if you need more room for photos and apps. The 5.5-inch LCD display gives you decent screen real estate for a phone from this era, and it runs Android 4.4.2 KitKat out of the box.

Camera-wise, you get a 13MP rear shooter with autofocus and LED flash, plus an 8MP front camera that handles 1080p video. HTC Desire 820 Dual SIM price in Malaysia starts from RM1215, and it comes with dual Nano-SIM support and LTE Cat4 for faster data where available.

Battery capacity sits at 2600mAh, non-removable, which was fairly standard for a mid-range device of its time. At 155g and 7.7mm thick, it's reasonably light to carry, and it's available in colours ranging from Marble White to Flamingo and Tangerine White.
