Dual SIM is the standout feature here, useful if you juggle two numbers or want a local and travel line in one device. Under the hood sits a 1 GHz Cortex-A5 chip paired with just 512 MB RAM, so this is a phone built for calls, texts and light apps rather than heavy multitasking. The 4-inch TFT screen runs at 480 x 800 pixels, enough for basic browsing and reading but not sharp by today's standards.

The 5 MP rear camera with LED flash handles casual snapshots, though there's no front camera for selfies or video calls. A 1650 mAh battery keeps things running, and Beats Audio enhancement adds a bit of punch to music and calls through the sound jack. It ships with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich wrapped in HTC Sense UI.

HTC Desire V price in Malaysia starts from RM1000. With 4 GB internal storage expandable via microSD up to 32 GB, you'll want that memory card if you plan to store photos, music or apps beyond the basics.
