HTC has introduced the Desire 828 dual sim, the company’s latest mid-range smartphone in the Desire series in China, after it got certified by TENAA back in August. It is the successor of Desire 826 dual sim that was launched in India recently. It packs a similar 5.5-inch (1920 x 1080 pixels) display and has an Ultrapixel front-facing camera, but this is powered by an Octa-Core MediaTek MT6753, instead of Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 processor in the Desire 826. It also has a 13-megapixel rear camera with optical image stabilization (OIS).
It has dual-front-facing BoomSound speakers with Dolby audio, dual nano SIM support and has 4G LTE connectivity with support for FDD LTE Bands: 1,3,5,7,8 and TDD LTE Bands: 38,39,40, 41.
