HTC Desire 820 is the successor of HTC Desire 816. Cosmetically they both look almost same but both the phones are very different from the inside. Where it matters the most. HTC Desire 820 comes with new 64-Bit processor from Snapdragon. And on top of that it’s an octa-core chipset. Snapdragon 615 comes with 4 Cortex A53 processors clocked at 1.5GHz and 4 more Cortex A53 processors clocked at 1.0 GHz and the updated Adreno 405 GPU.
Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime’s front camera can make you shine. No kidding. That’s the best and also the worst feature of this phone. Best because that’s exactly how everyone wants to look like especially in a ‘selfie’ and worst because it is totally a lie. Don’t believe me? take the same photo with its back camera and see the reality yourself. Obviously you wouldn’t want to believe that, that’s you. But sadly that’s the truth.
Honestly i was expecting a lot from Snapdragon 410. But as suspected it turned out to be just an incremental update of Snapdragon 400. If you have seen my unboxing video, you might have seen Galaxy Grand Prime’s Antutu score already. It scored just around 2000 points more than Snapdragon 400. The real disappointment however for me at least was the gaming. It really didn’t perform well in that department. It performed even worse than Snapdragonn 400 in some games.
Looking at the track record of Samsung. I would say, Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime is reasonably priced for what it offers. It has got the latest mid-range chipset from Snapdragon. The Snapdragon 410 which has quadcore Cortex A53 CPU and Adreno 306 GPU. With time its going to become an even better deal because Samsung’s smartphone prices usually falls pretty fast.
Karbonn Titanium S5 Ultra’s unique selling point is its 5 inch screen. And also its price. For 7,000 Rupees you are getting exactly or maybe slightly better hardware than Canvas A1 but what you are not getting is the same software support. Which has become quite a big thing in India recently. And that is not the only downside of this phone it has a few more.
Karbonn Titanium S5 Ultra has the same processor as all of the Android One smartphones. As a result, its scores are almost similar or very close to those phones. Although in some certain benchmarks like the 3D part of the Antutu its fame rate was very bad. While Canvas A1 performed better in that. Titanium S5 Ultra has a slightly high resolution screen than Canvas A1 though so that affects the performance too.
Karbonn Titanium S5 Ultra is very balanced smartphone with a 5 inch screen. I am calling it balanced because most smartphone with a 5 inch screen under 7,000 Rupees usually don’t have 1GB RAM, or maybe don’t have a decent chipset or maybe comes with a very bad resolution screen. But Karbonn Titanium S5 Ultra phone has a decent screen, decent chipset and 1GB of RAM.
