    still very pleased with this phone. It's as fast as it was when I bought it. I can't think of any real deal-breaking problems with it. a few cons, none of which are so awful that wished I had purchased something else: not much internal memory, solved by using its microSD slot. there aren't any cases available for it. ( eBay and Amazon sellers will list cases for HTC 610/612 but trust me, this phone, the 612 is not compatible with 610 cases. I've bought two cases and the 612's volume buttons are not in the same place as the 610. Otherwise, 610 cases are fine. most definitely the most fragile screen I've ever owned. It'll crack from the shortest of drops. this is solved by not dropping your phone.

    I bought this phone to replace my Samsung SIII contract phone and works just as well or even better than it. It is also about the same size as my previous phone. I like that you can get the Headline news also from the areas of interest to you. It has good battery life.

    I purchased this phone awhile back and wanted to use it before writing a review. I like that the speakers are in the front of the phone so I can hear videos better than the previous phone I had...I also like the size of the screen..my granddaughter wanted and IPhone, but when she saw this one she changed her mind..which was a good thing cause I bought her one for her birthday.. Love the message app too..really cool to be able to send an audio text..

    One of a kind find

    The HTC desire612 has what I need, as a no-contract phone. I've had it for a couple months and couldn't be happier. In the past, I bought an iPhone to free me of the obligatory contract deal. It turned out to be an expensive paperweight.

    I love this phone, by far the best prepaid model I have ever used. The stereo sound is sweet. Wish all entry to mid level HTC's had the BoomSound.

    Good Phone, Bad Camera

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Phone works well, easy texting and auto correct, pretty easy to navigate. I hate the camera in the phone though. Front facing camera is terrible, blurry and pixelated and rear facing camera is better but still not great.

    Slow and buggy

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I've had this phone for almost six months and find it very, very irritating how slow and buggy this phone is. Sometimes there is a 5-10 second delay before an app will open. The phone will also go into hibernation and it will take my 3-5 tries before it will wake. The phone will also automatically switch to dock mode or sometimes will not charge when I plug it in unless I turn the phone off.

    Worst phone ever purchased.

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bought this phone late February 2015. From day one the phone was acting up but i thought I paid almost $200 for it so its got to be good. Speakerphone and headset are the worst - when you call people most times they cant hear you. It is so disappointing. I called HTC and they got me to do an audio test which obviously passed. Yet people complain that it is distorted and I cant hear others at times. Please do not buy this phone. You will be wasting your money. Trust me.

    Handle with extreme care!

    I have never had a screen break on a cell phone, ever, until this phone. Which means it is not very sturdy. Additionally, it would cost more to replace the screen than buy a whole new phone. Expensive lesson. Won't make the same mistake again on this brand, ever. Buyer beware.
