HTC Desire V Audio and Connectivity

Audio and Connectivity

HTC included Beats Audio technology in the Desire V, aiming to provide better sound quality, particularly when using headphones via the 3.5mm jack. While it's an interesting inclusion for a budget device, the difference in audio quality is subtle. The phone supports standard connectivity options such as Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0 with A2DP and aptX, and GPS with A-GPS support. It also has stereo FM radio with RDS, which was a valued feature for users who enjoy traditional broadcast radio.
