HTC Desire 200 Pro Reviews

The HTC Desire 200 has some perks going for it, like the decent audio and call quality, packing the same set of headphones that comes with the HTC One, and sporting strong loudspeaker and clean earpiece. It also flaunts a very fast camera, but its less-than-impressive entry level specs hinder the impression from the handset's advantages. At first glance, you can't ask much more from a handset in the sub-$200 category without a contract, but looking around for alternatives in that niche, we are seeing better choices for the money. We are not talking about a competitor like LG Optimus L3 II, which is priced a bit lower, but has an even smaller display. We mean something like the Optimus L5 II, which costs the same, and offers larger screen with better resolution, or the Xperia U, which is currently just a tad over the $200 mark, but sports much more pixels at the same display size, more internal memory, and HD video capture.
