HTC Desire 501 Review

HTC Desire 501 comes to take the reign from last year's Desire 500 midranger, sporting dual SIM capabilities, too, and quite the similar spec sheet. It, however, has completely revamped looks, supports 3G connectivity at the main SIM slot, has more...

Good build quality, 8GB in-built memory, Good camera, Great battery backup
