Conclusion
The HTC Desire 526 targets budget-minded users seeking a reliable device without the need for powerful hardware or cutting-edge features. Priced at roughly 110 EUR at its launch, it was an accessible choice offering a decent smartphone experience at the time. While it doesn’t excel in any specific category, the combination of expandable storage, a comfortable form factor, and basic features provided a good value package for its intended market. However, its outdated software and hardware may not meet the expectations of today's more demanding users.
