HTC Desire 200 and 600 specs leak

HTC’s 2013 Androids have thus far been generally higher-end devices. Sure, the First is no One, but specs like that 4.3-inch 720p screen make it clear that this is no bargain-basement model. We all knew that trend couldn’t last forever, and sure enough, we’re now getting a look at some lesser Androids to help fill out HTC’s handset lineup, upon the discovery of evidence pointing to both the Desire 200 and Desire 600.

The first thing you should notice is the naming: gone are the days of the Desire C and Desire V, replaced with a system reminiscent of Nokia, or even Qualcomm and its SoC offerings.

As you should be able to tell from the numbering, the Desire 200 looks to be the lower-end of the pair. The phone shows up in a Taiwanese database as HTC’s model 102e. There’s a chance this guy could be the same G2 we saw specs for back in February. If that’s indeed the case, look for a 1GHz SoC, 3.5-inch HVGA display, 512MB of RAM, and a five-megapixel main camera.

Things look a bit better for the Desire 600, running at 1.2GHz and stepping up to a qHD display. While we haven’t IDed the SoC, the fact that it runs an Adreno 203 GPU points to a Snapdragon 200 or an S4 Play. Benchmark data reveals this one to be a dual-SIM handset apparently getting ready for a launch in Europe.

We’d assume that all this also implies the existence of a Desire 400, but we’ve yet to uncover any sign of that model.

HTC One to sell as TD 101 at China Mobile

HTC decided to invest in such a brand by launching the One series of smartphones last year, although the company was not able to impose its own product names to certain carriers. Then, just a few days ago, the company launched the HTC One, which is going to be the company’s only One-branded handset this year, a make-or-break kind of project for the Taiwanese Android maker that’s still having a tough time fighting against the competition, especially Samsung. We were under the impression that HTC will further invest in its One brand and not budge to carrier demands anymore when it comes to changing the name of the product – in the U.S., AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile are going to sell it as the HTC One. But it looks like things aren’t necessarily so, and no, it’s not Verizon that’s going to get its way selling the One as the Droid DNA Plus, as it was recently rumored. We’re looking at China Mobile this time around, which has announced the HTC One as the HTC TD 101. That’s certa...
