HTC Desire 320 - User Reviews

  • I bought this phone 2 years precisely in august 2016 for 70$ The phone doesn't hang, I've used the phone for years and never had the restart issues everyone complaining about. You get what you pay for tbh the front cam is a joke and i never used it, the main camera works great in lights, and it is amazing in shooting 1080p vids but once it gets dark you gonna suffer. The battery is acceptable it lasts you a full day but once you're on the cellular data it's gonna be drained quickly Now the bad thing about this phone that i guess it's made out of crap, two months of use and i encountared a problem and it shut and never went on again, i gave it back since it was under warranty and i received a new one. And after 2 years of use the phone died again due to a "memory" problem inside it.. if you're reading this and thinking whether you should get this phone or not I strongly advise you to get something better because it's not worth it..

  • This phone is terrible!I'm happy i've got an new one.It would just shut down randomly.

  • After my phone died I'm using this as an spare until I get a new one. It works fine so far. Don't expect many fancy things and super speedy performance (mine is the 512 MB and can't play some "heavy" games after all). But for calling, texting and light web surfing it does wonderfully. Screen sometimes used to freeze but lately I'm not having that problem. Battery life is decent, for me lasts one day with a single charge. Camera is awful though.

  • Had one from coming out, and still have i.Good camera and phone. Blobe.

  • this was a good phone when i first got it, but there where definitely issues with it, like typing was always a few seconds behind, the GPS has never worked for me, and the cameras are very bad, unless your in direct sunlight, and then they have a very bad glare. it got extremely laggy after about 3 months, it was very difficult to type, let alone play games, i eventually factory reset it, and installed clean master onto it, and it an pretty well i guess, it did still have issues when typing and switching between apps. when running games it would get very hot, i at times would need to close the games and shut it off, or else it would freeze, other times it just wouldn't open the games, or it would get too hot and shut off completely by itself with no warning. i am still using this phone (due to no other option) but i am no longer able to put apps or anything else onto it, because of updates to the factory preinstalled apps, and i cannot unupdate them because the refuse to work, so i am left with a phone i can barely text on let alone play games, i feel like this could have been a much better phone, if there had been a bit better hardware on it, bu being as it was a budget phone i get what i paid for. long story short i recommend against buying this phone.

  • My phone is showing com.android phone has stopped please what should I do?

  • Using this phone is as a second phone: call and SMS and not others. Camera is very very bad. Ring and vibrating is low... Oh, because of the price is E80 only !

  • Whilst phone is on goto settings, scroll down to backup & restore. Back up your Palnackie data either to Google servers or your home computer,then (on same page) scroll down to factory reset.reset phone turn off, then restart. It should load exactly the same way you purchased it.

  • The phone is garbage used it for about 1 year and it keeps freezing , shutting off youtube videos have delayed sound after 1 call and i have to restart the phone. in short: Don't buy it , save your money

  • this phone is aids

  • you cant store jack shit on 4gb, it is laggy af with 512mb of ram and the cameras are garbage, i need a new phone asap!!!

  • I have Desiree 320 for more than a year, my cam was bad and my system crashed and it restart all the time . I want to reinstall the software, but I dont know how. Can any one help me fix my desiree HTC 320. Thanks -maria

  • This phone has to be the worst phone I have ever used. From the soft buttons destroying my gameplay, to brutal sluggishness when doing pretty much anything. It's like using a scooter engine in a tank, tank sucks because of it. Not that I'm saying it's tank like I'm sure the first time I drop it it will shatter like a cheap wine glass. HTC if you are going to put out a budget model either splurge on making it better and charge a bit more or don't bother. I used to laude HTC phones but this one makes me want to vomit

  • I am using this phone from february 2015. There is no problem for my phone yet. The only problem I felt was the poor front and rear camera with a useless flash. My phone never gone hang till day. But dont buy this phone, you will get a better phone with better spec at the same price.

  • please how can i see the setings

  • Reboot it, then set up you gmail, guy.

  • Bloody useless. My first smart phne bought from local Carphone Warehouse, who just wanted the contract and fobbed me off when I later complained. Had nothing but problems from day one, a year ago. Have to take the battery out virtually every day, as the fully charged phone dies without warning and it is the only way to reboot it and the cover has started to split as a result. It gets red hot and dies without warning. The screen calibration seems to be haywire, I hit a letter, it lights but the next letter appears on my screen. A couple of days ago, the diialler would not work at all and now I have no phone whatsoever as it refuses to accept the charger and is now dead. I would not have another one if you paid me..budget or not...

  • the sd card slot doesnt even work

  • YES

  • - There is no autofocus - GPS is poor (working only after being serviced; even so it is very sloooow and losing signal very often)

  • ive been using this phone (eu edition with 1 gb ram) for two weeks till now nothing to blame atm it works cool and the battery is good,the phone didnt hang at all.. just the front cam isnt good for taking selfies

  • Hi sorry for my bad English. I need an help. My Desire320 can't synchronize mails. What can I do. Thank you.

  • needroms.com

  • I'be had mine for about a year & it's been perfect & I only paid $40 for it at a 2nd hand shop.

  • This has just happened to me too.... I'm really stuck :(

  • i got problem with software .. it keeps rebooting all time .. how to repair it ?? or should i change software ?? can anyone pls give me link of ROM file for this mine is from europe ..

  • I agree with you

  • It does power off without order more than three time per day

  • Luckily, my phone HTC 320 is still working well after 9 months of use!

  • Can't put apps into ad card

  • its a pretty average phone, there some lagging here and there but if you get a cleaning storage app(i use clean master) on it and a SD card for it, the phone should work well

  • So laggy! Sentence appears about a minute after you typed it. Freezes constantly. Standby button regularly decides not to work, I constantly have to take the battery out and put it back in again. You get so much more for your money with a windows phone; they cost the same as a low end android but are infinitely faster and more reliable (if a bit lacking in apps).

  • GPS is slow and unreliable ... if it ever works!

  • the software is rubbish, it doesn't have flash capability, the screen malfunctions and the streaming speed is slow at best also it downloads software that if you forget to close your phone does not charge

  • I got this Phone from my brothers as a gift but from that day my mind is ruined by this phone. This is a piece of shit as to me. I'm very much fed up with this phone as it is not switched on from 2 hrs ago but as I press the power button it starts to get on but still can't. I'm trying all those things but still I'm unable to switch it on. I guess if anyone can solve my problem here . Plesae don't even think to giva an idea about Pressing power button with volume key. I tried all those keys which this phone had but still this phone is dead.

  • agreed... however the faults are the touch screen, i believe. when im txtg it constantly clicks the home button or finds the wrong letter im typing and the auto correct is bad. it takes me 2 min to send a 10 sec txt. so for this reason i HATE this phone. there really isnt much about the phone that stands out. but i know that android phones are all getting worse. it seems that there trying to be like apple. i HATE mac and will soon figure out how to use Linux on my phone to solve many probs. including privacy issues.

  • It is a piece of s*it...not worth the money you give for it...you could get way better phones in that price mark...the display is a torture device...

  • Its actually a really good phone. You normally get 5.5GB out of the total 8GB but what do you expect? Its £50, not £200-300. Put in an SD card (normally does the trick for me). Never freezes for me (in fact, the S3 my friend has freezes constantly and needed me to clear out all the crap and cache from her phone and its still slow)

  • SD card sorta works, it doesn't disconnect for me but for some reason any file on it counts as internal storage for the phone Great strong phone (fell out of my bag onto some rocks on the coast and only suffered two scratches), very fast and good quality, well worth the £50

  • the SD slot doesn't work. if you put in a new micro SD it will work for a week or so and then it'll start disconnecting the sd card randomly and in order to fix it you have to take it out and put it back in again but then eventually it disconnects again

  • well that's total bullshit! this phone can barely run the apps that it came with and half the memory is taken up by system apps and the operating system. if you have this phone you should know how shitty it really is

  • Im in the exact same situation as you, my Galaxy s3 broke and i got this phone. This is the worst phone i have ever had. SD cards wont work, it freezes constantly and the storage space is bullshit because the operating system and other system functions take up most of the storage. i want to smash this phone every day!!

  • to stop your htc switching off on you ..hold the on/off button and the volume button.until your phone powers up and then press reboot,,,,

  • Bought this phone and theres no camera app. Downloaded camera apps but camera doesn't work!

  • Not a good choice for the price I bought. It shutdown himself and don’t start unless I remove the battery and its happening at least two to three times in a day. Internet via Wi-Fi is ok but internet via my mobile network is big NO. I was thinking it's my mobile network problem but I checked my sim card with Samsung grand prime vola works like charm. Internet setting (AP) is good don't know why it won't work. More over I have warranty for this garbage. I will update after i visited service center.

  • Has the thx desire 320 got a screen sensitivity button ?????

  • Got this phone 3 months ago when my galaxy s3 broke. The HTC desire 320 is by far the worst smartphone I have ever used. Very glitchy, constantly freezing, terrible touch screen, no flashlight. This phone is a nightmare to use everyday, this is the first and last HTC phone I will ever own. Can't believe they let this phone go to market, terrible phone.

  • I got one for Christmas. 22 days ago? The phone's more than I need. My 11 year old son Payton shows me "how to". It's a good phone. Thanx again to Santa and his four elves, Kathy, Laiya, Jessica and Diane. I'm a fortunate one. B. It's toooo hooooot. It's toooooo briiiigggght ouuuut. My phone's tooooo heeeeaaavy. Hope your phone falls on your toe and you break it! have a lovely day. Bee!

  • if you plan to do ANYTHING dont get this phone! the buttons get stuck in place, it can barely run its pre installed apps, there is 4 gigs of space advertised though mine had less than 500 mb available! it can only hold 3 apps from the playstore before i get the notification of "internal storage running low"!! not at all worth the 150$ price tag, its worth 50$ at best!!

  • i agree you guys will never have a life beyond a screen if ur the type of people who complain about stupid things like a power button

  • Reflash it with sp flash tools. stock rom: hint for 310 users:the 320 stock roms works on 310 too,but with some issues

  • Worst phone I've ever owned. The touch screen is so bad it often thinks it is being pressed when isnt - its hanging up calls, calling people aitomatically etc. Also the power button is tiny and difficult to find and I have also had tge issue where it turns its self off and wont turn on again.

  • This phone is almost total rubbish front camera zero ...back camera bad picture always Blurred...sometimes this stupid phone will went off and will not on until I remove the battery and inset it back and on it ..bad phone

  • i hate the camera, my wifi connection is terrible the home button is way to close to the keyboard. however i have like 14 apps and my phone still has enough storage, good speaker, good battery life, and ok touch screen. 7/10

  • You must re flash your phone. Turn on your phone without sim inserted. May be your phone normally run. But if running normally you must reflashing your phone too.

  • You bricked it

  • Please i need help as how to fix my phone....i was charging my phone and i realised it freeze. So i removed the battery and inserted it again. When i tried switching it on,the HTC logo appeared and vibrated and then went off again....and that's what it has been doing again and again. I sent it to phone repairs, but they say the phone doesn't respond to anything......so please, i really want to the problem

  • it is asking for the system update. i did factory reset and all things but it is not opening. i showed to service centre but they said that its software is not launched in india . what should i do to reset it??

  • Sad. 1. Internal memory is too small. Ran out of memory with just a few apps installed. 2. No autofocus or manual focus for camera. so most pictures are blurred. 3. Design flaw, where the hell is my power button when I need it? oh here it is right next to the volume down button.

  • Need help in changing my storage from internal to external. All of it goes to the phone and none on the sd card

  • poor quality of the photo

  • good phone the other comments here are from little dude's. the same little dudes that will never own anything in their life except their phones. sad.

  • I have this phone and I can say I hate it. It's just... Bleh, I had a Galaxy S 3 mini before and this feels like a step back. Like, I'd give this phone to a teenager if I didnt want it to get stolen at school. Thats my personal opinion of it, and the front camera is rubbish btw, however my instagram account has had a LOT less selfies cos I can't be dealing with it. Massively hate this phone.

  • can anyone who use this phone plz tell me is this good phone i most need the camera.. is the camera not good as sony e1?

  • HTC, The king of the huge bezels. Look at all of the unnecessary dead space in this phone.

  • hi anyone can say its good or bad then i buy am from german may be phone is european so should i buy or not

  • Mine, i have nicknamed it ''Mr No Enough Space''

  • This is one big con of of a phone. i nicknamed it as, ''Mr, no enough space''

  • went from htc one v (luved it) to the desire 320 (not so much) phone does random s#^*t down loads all by its self, the return button is way to close the type board, no indacatore led, and battery dies way to fast even in idel (screen black and no use) went to bed at 20% dead by morning and alarm clock did not go off battery dead. and now i put in a 32gig micro sd card in for seriouse lack of internal memory did a format and cant down load a thing! cant change downloads to go to sd card and phone says not enough internal space even though ive gotten rid of most of my favret games to make room still nothing. if some one can hepl me ...maybe im doing something wrong. if not hat this phone! p.s. sorry fot bad spelling.

  • Definitely buttons too close. Messaging is frustrating.

  • Dude- that's what the SD slot is for.

  • Hello, I came here to say my official review on this HTC Desire 320 phone. The sensitivity on the touchscreen is excellent, the display is also very bright (depending on brightness level). One thing I would consider is the phone storage. Now, this is very important, because it is impossible to download more than 8 apps on this phone. If you don't believe me, see it for yourself. Even if you delete your apps, the phone apparently still has no storage (I mean, seriously!) This is a terrible feature, ruining the spectacular design on the phone. Above all, I still think this is an excellent smartphone for everyday use. I will give it a 3.89 star rating out of 5.

  • Any advice about the HTC Desire 320?????Is good or bad??? A salesman at the carphone warehouse said it is a very good phone, better that samsung mini S4????? I want to get more feed back to decid..Any help please.Thanks you all

  • No space. After 6-7 apps the phone is full. Even after deleting downloaded apps there's apparently still no space

  • I found the space button and home are to close or fingers to big. Depends

  • Just bought this phone, it drops back to home page whenever you try to put a contact in, the Bluetooth will not pair in the car and seems very slow

  • Works perfect,I have this phone for two months.For someone who wants speed,its good solution,only bad thing is camera,its not good enough if you want something Wow

  • I do love this pho especially for the price but I'm having issues when I'm typing on an app or have an app open it'll glitch and take me to the home screen or show me what apps are open screen. Anyone else have this problem?

  • Phone keeps switching off and when i restart all contacts have gone. Luckily i still have my old phone so i can re-import my contacts, anyone having similar issues?

  • You should improve your English.

  • I am using this HTC Desire 320 with flash led, but in Vietnam. I enjoy it beside the drawback of battery that drain too fast as it reach nearly 30%

  • I get u man,then you can trade this and go in for lumia 640 if only you are interested in windows phone coz its also a pleasant mobile.

  • Pablo, its even more disappointing to know that the HTC will make over 3 versions of this phone, we buy a product because of its Brand Name, if you can upload pictures of your call screen, your message screen and your widget screen, ill do same and you'll see how devastated i am.

  • Dear charles,i can imagine your pain but plz calm down...am sure u bought the canadian version.I am using the European version and it has led flash,double tap and all those features that youve spoken of. Very sorry but for me i'm enjoying my phone. The only drawback i see is the screen,it could have been better but am sure its because i was using an AMOLED screen on samsung and thats why this screen aint vivid enough for me. Thanx htc

  • This phone is a disappointment to the history of HTC, For a phone production company with a very high reputation to produce a phone with user interface equal to that of devoloping phone makers, i am highly dissapointed. for the price i should have expected less of course but i got way lesser than i can imagine.... The phone is without HTC sense, no led light, no double tap special feature.... I should have just bought the injoo one or some other chinese brand for the same price and gotten the same value... very disappointed

  • Yes full HD 1080p

  • Does this phone play HD videos?

  • This phone shud have gotten a notification LED...but its still awesome n battery life would have been better than this.

  • Best phone ever!!!! I'm really satisfied.Thanx Desire 320,Thanks htc.

  • The touch screen wont recognize inputs fast or multiple ones. Its good for everyday use, but I could not use it for a certain rhythmical game I play on my free time. Overall, It's quite fast and rarely lags even with multiple apps. The camera doesn't have autofocus, so I can't take photos of texts, but if you trade performance for that, I'm quite satisficed with this model.

  • I bought my phone nfew days ago (EU version) and Mobile Stanby use like 40% of battery? How to fix it? :>

  • GSMarena and HTC website are both correct. HTC 320 europe has LED flash and for other country no LED flash

  • I don't like it because I cant download my music from my windows media player onto it unlike my old htc desire c. lot of nonsense.

  • i dont like it because i cant download my music from my windows media player unlike my old htc desire c

  • Think this is a great phone it's specs are great for the price had no problems with it

  • VGA started as a term for the adapter, but has come to also mean 640x480 resolution, the same way that SVGA means 800x600 and XGA means 1024x768.

  • Selm..... VGA = video graphics array! Its usd in normal cam recorders! But this 1 isnt like that! Evn tho its mentiond vga!!

  • great specs!!!

  • great specs!!!

  • Oh,god.99% same specs as desire 310 but 4.4.2.And they didnt make a 4.4 update for desire 310!I hate this "support".

  • htc official support team told me the glass screen is not scratch resistant oh dear

  • No

  • 640 x 480 pixels

  • What does front camera:VGA mean?

  • Does it have LED notification?

  • excellent phone, feel great, gentlemans phone good model, fast and great price. must buy

  • I really like this phone. I got it to replace my Samsung S4, I play games,surf the Web,Netflix, and a long list of other things. The only downfall to me is the camera. But for $80 who can complain.

  • It's available in white, black And grey

  • It's available in white, black And grey

  • White and grey

  • its around 130 bucks

  • 100

  • How many colors htc 320 ? Bcoz nothing to list

  • what is its market price by now.. please I wanna know

  • Just bought this for my sister. Phone feels high quality and it's a bit bigger and thinner than my Moto G LTE, even when the screen is the same size. Screen isn't as sharp as Moto G but has decent viewing angles. Phone feels responsive and quick, even with the low RAM. Free space is around 1.75 GB, which is low. Comes with charger and headphones. On boot it uses 200 mb Ram, running KitKat 4.4.2. I bought it for $60 on discount, it was $20 cheaper than Moto E with same discount. It's a nice and cheap phone.

  • HTC Desire 320 is better

  • nice phone

  • Samsung Core 2 or HTC Desire 320....... Which Better?

  • I want to buy diz phone aftr cames our country.. Plz come ASAP...............

  • I want to buy diz phone aftr cames our country.. Plz come ASAP...............

  • This phone has no use for someone who want's to time fast, get every mail synced in real time. Have a poor camera, and battery life is bad. I have for 24H and i don't realy like it. Not a budget phone.

  • I don't Like Because it's not dual sim..........

  • Low price Nice phone...........

  • I think HTC products are the best Android products so far

  • I hope at my country comes with LED flash and 1GB RAM the Canada version

  • me thinks good fone

  • In GSMarena this device showing with LED flash. But in HTC homesite it No LED flash. Though which is correct info......?

  • i have a desire 310 but im lookin forward to buy this phone when it comes to my country

  • Yes, the stock camera app let's you take panoramic photos.

  • Can this phone take panoramic pictures??? Please somebody?

  • very nice low range

  • It has indeed a Mediatek MT6582 ARM Cortex-A7 quadcore cpu running at 1.3ghz. The GPU is a Mali-400 MP2 running at 500mhz, 512MB of RAM (at least the model I have, there could be 1GB variants). I have been using the device for around 3 weeks now, and for its price, its a great device. It has great processing power and great graphic capabilities (also the resolution being FWVGA lets the GPU give more FPS in games). The device low points would be the RAM, which does not let you multitask with too many apps, for example opening Chrome with three tabs, the Play Store, YouTube, a game and Maps would mean that when returning to Chrome it would load again (of course with the pages that were open) but its not a problem other than that. It comes with KitKat 4.4.2 and it's rootable. It also has a proximity sensor. My HTC Desire 320 is rooted and customized with the Xposed Framework running 5 modules and I am very glad to say everything has been running smoothly. Running programs, games and emulators have been a breeze. Very happy with this device, great device power for the price.

  • Mediatek...yes loveneesh

  • Its a single sim or dual

  • I don't think is that... Probably SD400,410 or some kind of a Mediatek... as is a cheap device...

  • I don't understand the naming logic. Usually the higher the number the better the phone. So how could. A Desire 320 have a way better processor than Desire 6xx? Or is HTC just throwing random numbers after the Desire name?

  • It has a Mediatek MT6582M 1.3GHz Cortex A7 Quad

  • Snapdragon 615

  • Which chipset it has
