HTC Desire Eye

HTC has just held an event in New York and, as expected, have unveiled a new smartphone with advanced photographic capabilities. The HTC Desire Eye is a smartphone high-end, large-screen and powerful processor, but where it really shines is in your camera, or rather chambers. HTC has included a 13-megapixel rear camera with dual LED flash, but if we turn we find exactly the same settings on the front camera. The HTC Desire Eye has many applications for photos and videos to make video calls to a group. We tell you all about the latest release from HTC.

 Display and Design

White frame with red or dark blue with light blue frame. HTC has confirmed that the terminal is waterproof and can be submerged for up to 30 minutes at a meter deep.

 Camera and Multimedia

 As we have already mentioned, the strong point of HTC Desire Eye are their cameras. If we look only at the rear chamber has a typical configuration at any high-end, even slightly behind in resolution and no optical stabilizer. However, when we see that the front camera is almost equal is when we are surprised. Both cameras have a 13 megapixel sensor with BSI technology (backlit) and measuring 3.1 inch. They also carry a double flash, so the pictures turn out well even at night, and whether we want to make a normal photo or get us one selfi. The two recorded videos FullHD have HDR mode and a dedicated shutter button. The difference comes with the lens. The front camera is wide angle, with a focal length of 22 mm and aperture f / 2.2. The rear camera lens is more closed (28 mm), but is brighter, with an aperture f / 2.0.

 The applications are a key issue in HTC Desire Eye Camera. It has a special mode for autofotos, allowing us to shoot them only lift the phone or activating it with a voice command. They also have a function that detects and tracks faces up to four simultaneously mejoes for group photos. The Recórtame application gives us the option of inserting an image capture and split uses two cameras simultaneously. HTC adds more features to selfies such as makeup mode, smoothing our skin and eye color and lips.

 Operating System and Applications

It has the entire Google apps package, which includes features such as Gmail, YouTube, Google Maps, Google Navigation and Google Drive.

 HTC includes its own visual layer, the HTC Sense in version 6.0. This layer has a very awesome design; it goes very smoothly and has some special features. One of them is the HTC Blinkfeed widget, a kind of news reader that integrates into our home screen and even syncs with our social networking profiles.

 Connectivity and autonomy

 The battery has a capacity of 2,400 milliamperes and HTC as 538 hours can be at rest and up to 20 hours in use.

 Reviews

 HTC is still committed in the photographic field with new smartphone with dual camera, literally. Both cameras have a complete setup, so we can make normal photos or selfies with the same quality. Special applications are also interesting, but is there any that we have especially surprised. The rest of his technical background is also very comprehensive, with Snapdragon 801 chip, 5.2-inch HD display and it is waterproof. The concept is interesting, but not revolutionary.
