Final Verdict
Priced at approximately 190 EUR at launch, the HTC Desire 626s was designed to be an accessible entry into the smartphone market. It presents a balanced mix of features suitable for basic phone usage needs but does not cater to heavy multitaskers or users seeking high-performance gaming and photography experiences. Its legacy as a budget-conscious device with straightforward features remains solid, especially for users prioritizing basic functionality and connectivity over bells and whistles. The absence of modern advances seen in current smartphones, such as higher resolution displays, more powerful processing capabilities, and enhanced camera systems, is to be expected given its launch date.
