  • I am using this phone since 2 years. Never faced any problem with this phone.

  • Have used HTC 501 for 3 years. I must say this has stood up to all my expectations. Didn,t face a single issue till date. waiting for this years HTC releases , find no reason to switch to any other company. Keep it up HTC!

  • I using this mobile nearly 2 years, Its working smoothly, still no problem, My display is broken within 6 month of usage, but still its working, glass fully damaged but touch is good, I like this phone very much.. hTc fan..

  • Worst phone I have ever owned. Have now had it (replaced once after 12 months) for 14 months. Still the same problems time and time again!!!!!!!!!!!!! Stay clear!!!!!!!!!

  • no one can should purchase htc phone i have lots of problem after warranty period service center says mother board loss. and replaced with 3 month warranty spading 7000 rupees

  • 4 hours battery backup only if internet is on only. And update not provide by HTC.

  • I am waiting for the updation

  • My phone battery backup is totally pathetic..

  • My HTC desire 501 battery backup is worst.. I m totally frustrate

  • HTC 501 one month only working vibration very worst

  • its an awsome phone...wrkng smoothly...till now no problem..

  • Phone is durable, function is still working but storage is a problem, I could only download about 3 apps all adding up to about 1GB and since this phone has small storage (only four GB -_-) there's about 2.95 GB taken up by other which I'm not sure what it is but it would be very helpful if it would let me tap it to see what it is. I'm not sure if this is fixable but if it is it would be very helpful if I could have the option to see other

  • This is worst phone ever in terms of the hardware. No parts available in htc if breaksdown. htc always has cold response for the complains.

  • Dts tru the parts wth HTC service center are not available for 1-2months n dey have nly one ans keep patience. Dey r really making us fool

  • It's the worst ever phone I hav ever used in ma life.. plz don't opt for dis handset. N Nw using dis mobile n availing the type f service center I will really recommend dnt purchase any HTC phone. My experience wth HTC toll free is als very very bad. because HTC employee hav nthng to do wth customers satisfaction dey just hav 2 earn money. Ua querries in HTC service center and als on toll free no are never sold. Because frm last 6months my handset is wth service and still the issues are not been sold. If u thnk I m lying u can.call on toll free n tell my name n ask when I submitted d handset n still dey r giving it back or nt. So plz if u want to waste ua money den only opt fr HTC. Because Nw when I hav compared HTC wth oder handset m feeling karboon mobile is als 100times betr den htc

  • Download Es file Explorer to manage yr files...its good and easy to use.

  • HTC desire 501 is good but its vibration is not working after 3 month of the date of purchasing

  • Its fab.... Bt help me how to access fiel manager

  • After last apdate,when I am putting the charging there is no charging symbol on screen.so plz solve the problem

  • Htc desire 501 is a good phone..but we need its upgrade .do it plss.we have spent lots of money buying this phn..pls update software

  • Hi, its really good phone with a good battery backup and superb camera .....really good .

  • my husband used this phone for about half a year, and then he got a new phone and i used this one as my second phone . initially he wanted to sell it off , and since there were no serious buyers yet , i used it for a while . now i'm not letting the phone go , because it's really awesome ! not only the back-cover is super nice , the battery is incredible ! i have never seen a batt on 3g, with constant usage that lasts for about 20 hours ! or more .

  • Required update this mobile htc desire 501 dual sim for smooth functioning.

  • well mr gaurav, am also facing same problem..i submitted my mobile on 01.17.2015...at TVSE mumbai..but still today they are giving the same reason that"the parts are not received" we should take some strong measure.. so that these kind of companies should get dare to cheat the customer..

  • WORST PHONE AS WELL AS SERVICE WE HAVE EVER USED IN OUR LIFE............UNDER WARRANTY Serial No. � HT41MLM01063 Submission Date � 09/02/2105 Expected Return date � 11/02/2015 Hi..., I have purchased HTC desire 501 for my wife on 20th of April 2014. But to my utmost surprise initially this phone doesn't get 'ON' once it�s out of battery, untill and unless we take out the battery and reinsert the same. Now in this month starting we have this phone gone dead and when I have visited there website for service centre list there are 2 type of service Centres 1.) TVSE Express walk in repair centres 2.) Flextronics Pick up points. So as the name suggest Walk in repair I have been to TVSE express Walk in Repair in DLF Grand Mall, Gurgaon But after being there on 09/02/2015 there was nothing like express repair at the centre. And Instead they have given me a landline no. after keeping my phone with them. They asked me to call on 10/02/2015 to just to tell me that what�s wrong with the device. and on 10/02/2015 they have told me that the mother board of the phone is faulty I will get my phone back in next 8-10 Days. Now again I was trying there landline no. 0124-4388636 since yesterday and luckily I got successful today morning and again they are saying that it will take another 8-10 days as still they have not received the part. And when I have asked them that why is this so ? The person very foolishly answers that they don�t maintain the stock of spare parts in India and the part is coming from Taiwan so they cannot commit any date to us than when this will get problem will get rectify. Than I have asked them for the email id of there senior in the company and He replied that we don�t have any information about the same. This type of insensitive attitude towards the issue says that even if your device will Malfunction in the initial Days than these guys are going to keep your device with them till the time warranty doesn�t gets over and after that will say that your warranty is over and we cannot help you out now. At last I would like to suggest all of you not to go with HTC at all as they have a very poor service backup. And for HTC Guys I am will make sure to drag HTC & TVSE both to the consumer Forum if you people will not resolve the issue by 21/02/2015 either resolve it OR payback the complete Invoice amount so that we can go ahead with some better brand than yours.

  • I am using HTC Desire 501 for the past two months. What irritates me is the fact that my brother using a Micromax mobile he bought for 6000 INR and an Intex Aqua phone that my friend bought for 6500 INR both have Quad Core Processors and they are smiling at me when they multi-task, whereas my 17000 INR worth of phone gets heated at the back when I try to run more than 3 or 5 apps at a time. When I try to play games like Subway runner, Stick Cricket and Temple Run OZ, the phone gets stoned and I have to pull out the battery every time it happens. The only upside is the ability to sync Social Network contact phone numbers to my phone book. This phone is not worth the price I've paid for it. I could have bought a used HTC Explorer for around 4000 INR, rooted it and could have made much more benefits out of it than this phone. Heavily disappointed.

  • hi friends i am using HTC Desire 501from last one month. this is very good phone. i need one suggestion. i am not able to see the full script in regional language if i use Facebook or whatsapp. is this case with others? how to resolve this? can someone help me? thanks

  • very low battery back up...

  • hello sir is this suported hindi language...

  • hello sir is this suported hindi language...

  • ya im useing this handset hence there is no good battary back up.....

  • Htc ...robust in nature .. but battery backup :(... service centre facility is worst.... U've to pay for a faulty part ....but 600/- for its estimation cost.. ...even in warranty !!!!.....feeling cheated....

  • does it suport video calling if yes than how do i do that

  • One of the shopkeeper informed me that this device is defective and hence he does not sell it anymore.... Have queried few others and they too gave the same response......is it true?

  • Why my htc always shuts off and i cant switch it on. i have to take the battery out and put it back then i can i can switch it on. Why, anyone know?

  • I bought this phone 2 weeks before.sold the phone just after using 6 days.The screen wrwcked into pieces when this phone just dropped from a height of one feet. Really a bad experiance.when i reached service center another person came with the same problem. Service center person informed me about Rs.6000 for changing the display as there is no warranty for physicql damage. In my opinion please select any other divice with Gorilla glass protection...... Phone is good in rest of its features.

  • It is actually a good phone compared to others, software is upgraded automatically without problem, good camera, amazing in music. right for internet, handy user friendly. All set but battery should be more...

  • Hi friends This is my Second post about this phone Pros: nice camera, long battery, cool design, ok screen, headphone sound (most important for me), not so big to carry ( good size for me), fast internet in SIM one, Cons: no preloaded file manager, no equaliser (both can be downloaded) constant "invalid mmi code" error, cost more than others same category devices, network problem( it leaves network in one slot and hardly come by self; this problem may be on service provider' side, I am not sure), half of internal storage and 70% ram is already used.( android problem???) Can't play 1080p videos, just 720p, 4.1 only;no planned 4.4 update Verdict:-Music lovers are invited, sound in headphone is loud and clear than those samsung, LG sony etc.others go alternatives or wait until cons are sort-our. Hope this is helpful

  • Using this for 2 weeks now. Functioning is flawless. Design is very attractive to me . It's sleek and perfect size. Installed many apps/games . Forget about any sluggishness in use, it's performing very well. It is running for 14 days now, not a single restart or any other issue. Camera quality for both front and back is good.Beats audio is a treat to the ears :-). I am enjoying this thoroughly. Only drawback is that apps cant move to Sd card. So you have to live with 5 gb space available for the apps which is again not too bad. Cant think of any other Cons, it's all pros...

  • hello guys

  • what graphic accelerator?

  • I was facing a similar problem with my HTC desire 501. Couldnot even get a replacement as the model was not available. However, the company has released a software update recently, which has solved the problem. Later I came to know that the Company had withdrawn the set from the market pending resolution of the issue and has now released the set in market once again after updating the software. After resolution of the above problem the phone is now working perfectly.

  • i baught this phone 5 days before i got problem with earphone and voice as i wont be able to hear or respond the same. further i went to htc service centre the movement i told my problem he asked me to come with box for replacement. so as per my view this piece may be has serious problem.

  • I want to buy a new phone in the range of 15000-16000 rs. Plz suggest me which one is better. Xperia m dual, galaxy core xperia L or desire 501,,, plz help me as soon as possible..

  • my 501 antutu score 11200,nenamark2 scored 46 and quadrant scored 3300....I am disappointed with the quadrant score ....but overall its a very decent smartphone

  • I bought HTC Desire 501 around 10 days before, everything looked fine.Camera is good, slim and trim and perhaps the best in the market in the mid range at present. But it has serious problems with its speaker (Both Earpiece and mouth piece), Suddenly my both speakers went off and I was unable to answer or call anyone. luckily its the 10th day and I have still 4 days to be covered under replacement warranty. I will go and get the DOA. this is seriously not EXPECTED FROM HTC. Can anybody from HTC please HELP. But my question is even though I get a replacement, what is the guarantee the second one would be flawless.....

  • Completely agree with this Post, Got a DOA for the same problem...

  • Is this phone able to upgrade to HTC Sense UI 5.0?

  • hello all, i want to buy this phone. but i want to know about battery backup...?

  • i want to buy this htc desire 501 ... please suggest me how it is?

  • kristen300 friend you are right... actually i have noticed these Ranbo lines when i go to Capture an Image in Night or Low Light... These ranbows Intruppting my Pictures.... :) bad

  • the dual core or quad core snapdragon 400 is better than this phone processor. the dual core snapdragon 400 is krait based, a lot better than outdated cortex a9, and quad core cortex a7 will be better than this phone dual core a9, i think adreno 305 better than the mali-400 used by this phone. The mali-400 used by this phone is just 1 core, different than the one used by like galaxy s3 that the gpu has 4 core, and it's about equal to adreno 305, so adreno 305 and snapdragon 400 is a lot better.

  • My Desire 501 is superb but at the bottom of the display below the three capacitive buttons,there is a little gap or may be the color is not put nicely and because of which a little light comes out from the bottom...which is quite annoying at night.... This review was copied since even i have noticed that gap So why is the gap???

  • can anybody please post benchmark results of antutu & quadrant of htc501...

  • In how much low light did u test the mob? If no issues, then definitely I will got for it.

Go for it HTC is HTC .....

  • hi ujjal i am having dual sim version , i did not encountered any running waves in my phone in low light while in room .

  • Hello All, Bought this phone last week for 15300 and is real value for money. All things are good , except the display quality. Really it would have killed Xperia l, Samsung grand if the pixel density could have been 245 ppi. But overall the phone has got awesome camera , good battery backup.

  • Qualcomm is certainly passin wrong info to people. Its a Novathor 8520 SoC, manufactured by ST-Ericsson in 2012. It is Cortex A9 based CPU and hence would perform better than Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 and 400 line of Dual and Quad Core SoC which are Cortex A5 and A7 based architecture respectively. I liked the phone but on Flipkart users are complaing about Screen ISsue as well as its Android version. Otherwise seems a good alternative to Moto G. Confused between Moto G Better Screen and Android version or HTC 501s Camera!!!

  • hey frns......whats da battery backup??? although given is 2100mAh ....but what is its realtime performance???

  • guys... its 1 week since m using dis phone.... frome 8 mp rear and 2.1 mp front camera to every feature...its perfect phone... but only i feel battery backup s not as good...using whatsapp fr half n hour makes battery less by 30-35%...

  • bro i bought this phone from ebay india costed 15,247 & been using for 7 days ,battery backup is 1 day on 2g , Camera Quality is good from both the cameras.There is no such issue. Beats Audio is awesome. Handsfree supplied are ok as they are not in -ear type. Rest UI is butter smooth , games like subway surf , temple run all versions,Candy crush runs very smoothly rest i do not play heavy games so has not checked all. Only one cons is this that on 2'nd sim u will get only 2g data connectivity ,3g is available on only sim slot 1.

  • I am using this phone for last one month. Nothing so bad about this phone which I've experienced yet. A very good phone in this price range. Look is stunning, data transfer is without any problem if you are using 3G. I am using net on my laptop through hotspot and it gives amazing speed. Camera quality is very good. Stereo sound is excellent courtsey beatsaudio feature. Car mode is very helpful while driving. hanged two times till date while taking continuous photographs. I hade to pull the battery off as it didnt respond. You might find difficult to locate Power button as it is very tiny compared to samsung phones. Earphone provided alogwith is substandard, better use a seperate one. Very good graphics but doesnt respond smoothly while playing heavy games. But afterall a very good phone in this price range . I preferred it over samsung mini S4.

Superb On Hands Rich In Looks!

  • HTC desire 501 has a classy looks. The cost is reasonable. The creamy back cover gets highlighted with the black screen. The striped one intact looks more like ''Lungi''. Anyways , about Hardware. Dual core is completely fine if you're aware of the technology that grips it . Processor speed is nothing less then what you'll find at this range. Tbh RAM is what actually matters because of all those tertiary tasks running on background, which intact is enough in 501. If your opting for high graphic games ,then Better buy a laptop or assemble a pc. HTC desire 501 offers all the features you want on a smartphone. Camera is awesome with a nice shutter speed. the best part iz the HTC sense which makes it adorable. And trust me its sense is way better then HTC 500. NFC is a plus point because of easy file sharing. Moving on the touchscreen is a delite. Dual SIM (micro). 8GB internal memory which is a great add-on wrt what is given on HTC desire 500 is only 4 gb. So must say 8gb is a major pro for HTC desire 501. Software part can never be flawless. There always be few bugs here and there. Regular updates is always preffered. Nothing at this price can be better then HTC desire 501 at the moment if thought wrt processor ram memory camera looks and android. Worth buying!!!

  • from where did u get dis? I have been searching for it in all websites

  • M not sure why are u comparing htc desire 501 with samsung guru Rs 1000 phone. U should comment on samsung guru review if u have that, not here..

  • I bought this phone for Rs.16300.This phone makes u feel so good.It is light weight, awesome touch, front camera is too good. Rear camera with HDR clicks best shots. Battery backup is excellent. Sound quality is the best..It makes u feel just awesome.. There is no phone which can give a competition in current market.

  • what's the main problems in this phone ????

  • which colour is best to buy?(for boy)

  • I have brought dis phone but I am very agony say dat its one of d worst phone i hv evr used....its btr to go for Samsung Guru dual sim.

  • Its too beautifull.and wow mobile.

  • You can buy htc 501 through online..

  • Yep..its 8mp cam is great and records great videos...and its 2.1mp front cam is also capable of recording hd videos as well...m not sure about its hd gaming performance..but I think it would be decent enough in playing heavy games...bcoz I tested nenamark2 and it scored 48fps which is a good score overall..it has a unique feature ie.face unlock which unlocks the screen after recognizing your face...check my YouTube video tomorrow where I ll review it

  • My friend have bought it a week before and hence it has been released in India.

  • Go for the desire 501.....very nice display with super LCD2 and very nice camera with slow motion video recording...n hd front cam...stylish looks..good processor...and good speed...and a great smartphone for music lovers...gaming is great...nenamarak2=48...i loved it

  • The phone has not been released yet

  • Please any one let me know where can I purchase this phone, I couldn't able to find in any shops and in online as well.

  • Can anybody tell me about its battery backup??

  • ultimate fone befor this i used note 2 and grand both hv hanging pron but this device is easy and comfirt to use luv dis more than samsung

  • I hav purchsd it in 16000inr.i liked it very much..bt I am very disappntd wid its 2100mah battry.i had full chrgd d cell but it came to 25% in just 5 hrs..i kept d phone idle for 2 hrs and did 3g internet and 2 benchmark tests...how cud I improve its..

  • This Mobile Looks so beautiful..if anyone use this model,please share your xperience ...............

  • Htc desire 501 is a very good piece at this price where other phone like sony experia L is not good at all and samsung galaxy grand has hanging problem so htc is batter than other

  • Price is 16,700 in india market. so i think its better to bye HTC instead other samsung of sony phones.

  • When will the review for this phone be up on gsmarena?

  • Not HD display, 4.2.2, 331 ppi, GSM 850,HSDPA 850.

  • But it have very old cpu and gpu than moto g

  • its a really smooth device, people compare it but its a better phn I'd prefer this one as compared to galaxy grand Quattro, htc sense 4+ is better than 5 and that doesn't matters if its lacking htc blinkfeed, htc makes every smartphone very clearly ,every app, games anything can be run so easily it has no boundaries , 1 gb ram is enough man who needs 2 or 1.5 gb one huh

  • desire 501 of course.

  • CPU: ST-Ericsson U8520 the ST-Ericsson IC department is gone. And this chip should be obsoleted. Its funny why HTC uses such old chip.

  • better get optimus G or xperia SP

  • obviously moto g is better .afterall it has a quadcore processor

  • Which chipset is used in it folks??

  • Good news is coming Nokia is launching Dual sim Lumia with Wp8.1 update with inbuilt file manager it will be a great phone at affordable price Iam waiting for it. and also with great apps.

  • Which one is better ? Moto g or desire 501 plz reply me frnd '

  • Is the novathor processor present in this phone good enough?

  • Obvio the Htc. Sense is far better than touchwiz Nd also the camera.....

  • htc lock screen with ring is the best looking than others.i love it.

  • In this fone Adreno 225 is using,it is good r nt?

  • Nope, But if htc provides update to sense 5.0 then the ring won't be there. Or you could always use other lock screen apps from play store.

  • Sense 4 has better looks than sense 5 esp the app drawer or menu. In sense 5 scrolling is up and down rather than being sideways and the layout looks ugly.Sense 4 or 4+ is still the neatest UI of htc phones.

  • Is there a option to change ring on locksrceen, that ring for unlocking looks very awkward to me

  • How is gaming experience on this phone. and which version of GPU does it have

  • Does this model have gorillas glass and also what about the body?

  • can it be upgraded to sense 5, does hardware support it

  • Both of them are really bad phones.Buy motorola moto g.

  • What you say which is better...HTC Desire 501 vs Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro?

  • Wat's the Version of OS?

  • Does this phone have beats audio? Memory card slot expandebale upto 64 gb or 32 gb? Front speaker realy have boom sound or not? can we install blinkfeed via 3rd party?

  • HTC sense 4.0+

  • It's 4+

  • Can it play full hd video ? And how is battery backup . Plz reply me frnd s

  • Still in sense 4. Also android 4.0.2...it time to move on HTC

  • HTC 501 right choice

  • Yes it has

  • does htc 501 got sense 5 or 4, can anyone tell me for sure, net full of confusion some mentioning 4 , others telling 5

  • NEW DELHI: HTC has introduced three new mid-range smartphones, the Desire 700, Desire 601 and Desire 501 expanding its Desire product line. The Desire 700 will be available at a price point of Rs 33,050, while the Desire 601 has been priced at Rs 24,190. The Desire 501 will be available at Rs 16,890.

  • u can be sure that the physiq is not a failure at least

  • Hi,friends of moral duties.HTC is still among number ones!But producing these redundant unacceptable by knowledgeable people inflict harms to the HTC fame!Only I can say among 9 classes of phone it,s the lowest mid range one!Sorry no acceptable qualities to talk about!Maybe 7 years ago it was the best but not today with these smart people whom study only gsm before a purchase!!!?I wish the HTC better affordable products not to lose the market!?According to the students poll,Here in every 75 thousands one might have a htc!Why!?Thanks to listen+specially factwriting gsm!

  • If only it had sense 5 , i'd have been a first person to buy it, but unfortunately it has sense 4. they lost a buyer

  • it has novathor processor....

  • Hct can dual boot 'os' in such handset

  • At that price you will get htc one x plus now in India.

  • its...does't have chipset......

  • The speaker should be on the front like the HTC One

  • The speaker should be on the front like the HTC One

  • What version of jelly bean what type of CPU (krait,Cortex,Snapdragon,Qualcomm)???

  • It's 100% Jelly Bean with Sense 4+

  • It's 100% Jelly Bean with Sense 4+

  • what's the android os version

  • hey buddy the price must be 240� not 240$.....

  • Those Indians who are dreaming about this phone let me inform you that it will be around 20-22 k in Indian market and regarding the under specification of the phone then frnds htc phones are always preffered for user exprience not specs not to mention phone like s4 lags besides having high end configurations while the desire range of htc phone never lags which is mid range along with that htc phones are all about its sense UI the best in the market all over the world from years lastly I will finish it up by saying " don't judge a book by its cover and htc phones by specs on the box .....!!"

  • hey where is GPU ??

  • hello der, gold worth this favorite brand HTC,but The First customer is me.but like silver brown golding color.

  • really? $24o is expensive? and galaxy s3 has no match to this phone. s3 is the high end phone while desire 501 is an entery level budget phone

  • Price 240 is high batter to buy Galaxy S3, even used S3 is batter than this

  • The phone looks good. Hope it will be launched in india in the price range of 14-16k indian rupees.
