Over the past few years, HTC has specialized exclusively in gadgets more "biting" to the consumer price range. However, the deterioration of the company's financial position has radically changed the situation. In 2018, at an exhibition in Barcelona, there was a presentation of the HTC Desire 12 and Desire 12 Plus phone models, which slightly improved the performance of the Android device manufacturer on the market.
So, what are the characteristics of the HTC Desire 12 smartphone - we will tell about this further.

At first glance, the phone does not have any particular flaws, although it is immediately obvious that they saved a lot of money on the device. The case is assembled from plastic, which, according to users, is even better than the HTC 11 model.
The case is brilliant, and there are several "minuses" at once. Such a surface loves to leave fingerprints, fine dust and other dirt on itself. There is also a high probability of dropping the phone by negligence, because the whole case is very slippery.
Users note that with prolonged use of the phone, clear scratches appear on the surface - you can’t do without a case.
A noticeable plus: the 18:9 aspect ratio allows you not to look at empty wide frames, as they like to do in cheap smartphones. The buttons are well-spaced and don't twitch.
A little about cameras
If most users do not pay attention to the processor and built-in memory, then they look at the functionality of the cameras first of all.
Cameras - like any inexpensive device. Simple and clear. The interface is not replete with its diversity - everything is extremely clear even for the "teapot". In the main menu, you can take a picture and see the finished ones in the gallery. Bottom panel - filters. You can also enable panorama, HDR, or flash.
What immediately catches your eye is the sharpness and low rendering of objects in the photographs. Well, what can I say - how much we paid, we stay with that.
The video is shot in Full-HD 30 fps, which is a confident performance for such a price.
conclusions
HTC Desire 12 is an excellent smartphone under 15,000 rubles, but not without its flaws. The price is quite reasonable. You get a budget smartphone with a stable processor, video chip, average memory and a camera. The battery could be better. But then the price would have been higher. Overall, 3 out of 5.
