HTC may be down and out, but it keeps making phones. Not as much as it used to, but just enough. The company has launched yet another affordable mid-ranger called the Desire 19s in its home market Taiwan that seems to be some sort of successor to last year’s Desire 12s. HTC has launched the Desire 19s in Taiwan at a price of TWD 5,990 which roughly translates to Rs 14,000. 

HTC Desire 19s specs and features

For the price, you get a 6.2-inch IPS LCD display with a 720p+ or HD+ resolution and waterdrop-style notch, a MediaTek Helio P22 processor paired with 3GB RAM and 32GB storage (expandable), Android 9 Pie-based Sense UI software, triple rear cameras consisting of 13MP main, 5MP ultrawide and 5MP depth, 16MP front camera, and a 3,850mAh battery with 10W charging. 

Speaking of design, the Desire 19s rocks a dual tone design like the Desire 12s with a rear mounted fingerprint scanner for biometric authentication to complete the package. The phone is available in Free Blue and Yashi Black colours. 

In other news, HTC recently made its India comeback with a new budget phone called the HTC Wildfire X. The Wildfire X was launched in India in August at a starting price of Rs 10,999 for the base variant with 3GB RAM and 32GB storage, going all the way to Rs 13,999 for the top-end variant with 4GB RAM and 128GB storage. 

Speaking of specs, the HTC Wildfire X comes with a 6.22-inch 720p+ display with a waterdrop-style notch. The phone is powered by an octa-core MediaTek Helio P22 processor paired with up to 4GB RAM and up to 128GB storage which is also expandable. The dual-SIM phone runs Android 9 Pie software and packs a 3,300mAh battery with USB Type-C charging. On to the optics, the Wildfire X has three rear cameras – a 12MP main camera, an 8MP telephoto camera for 2x zoom and a 5MP depth sensor for portrait photography. On the front, the Wildfire X comes with an 8MP camera.
