Today HTC has introduced its new smartphone called the Desire EYE. The Desire EYE offers an nice design while also adding some unique features that you otherwise might expected in a flagship smartphone.
It has a 13 megapixel front facing camera in addition to a secondary 13 megapixel camera on the back of the device. It offers dual-LED flash on both ends, though during brief tests with the device we noticed that you had to manually toggle the front facing flash on and off when you want to use it. Both cameras shoot high quality photos, however, and it was certainly surprising seeing a selfie come out so good.

The phone is equipped with a large 5.2-inch 1080p screen that was crisp and, despite its size, relatively easy to navigate with one hand. The device is also built out of high quality plastic with a seamless body that makes the phone feel more premium and super sturdy. You won’t have to worry about getting it wet, either, as it has an IPX7 rating for water resistance.
HTC managed to sneak front-facing BoomSound speakers on the front of the phone just above and below the screen. You can hardly see them but they work really well and get nice and loud. There are also three microphones around the phone for voice clarity at all times.
The coral red with a white face version of the HTC Desire EYE is a timed exclusive until the end of December for the UK phone operator Three.
Under the hood, you’ll find a Snapdragon 801 processor clocked at 2.3GHz, certainly no slouch, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of storage that can be expanded with a microSD card slot (up to 128GB), NFC, Bluetooth 4.0 and a 2,400mAh battery.
