Build

- The build material is completely plastic.
- There is very little bezel on the top and bottom edge.
- There are no buttons beneath the screen.
- Weighing 158g it feels rather heavy.
- Power button and the headphone jack sit on the top edge.
- Volume rocker button is on the right edge.
Display
- The handset has a 4.7 inch display.
- The screen has 854×480 pixels of display resolution.
- The display does not have an IPS unit.
- Text is sometimes fuzzy, colours are not bright enough. The display is a total letdown.
Processor
- The quad-core Snapdragon 410 1.2GHz processor is complemented by 1GB RAM
- The processor is the most interesting aspect of the device; it is very powerful and gives quick response.
Memory & Battery

- The memory can be increased by the addition of a microSD card.
- The 2100mAh battery will get you to second day of use. The battery life is great.

Verdict
Making low-priced quality handset is proving to be very difficult for HTC. HTC Desire 510 is a good handset it you are willing to overlook the display. The performance is good and the operating system with Sense 6 has done wonders. HTC does not know how to make right compromises in low priced handsets; unfortunately Moto G has found the formula. HTC will need to work really hard to beat Moto G.
