HTC Desire 10 Pro

HTC Desire 10 Pro

The Desire 10 Pro is HTC’s latest mid-range smartphone, focusing mainly on design and camera quality. The company launched this phone back in November of last year, but it only went on sale in December.

Sitting pretty at Rs. 26,490, the Desire 10 Pro goes up against the likes of the Moto Z Play (Review), Asus ZenFone 3 (ZE552KL) (Review) and OnePlus 3 and 3T. All of these are excellent smartphones in our book, which means the Desire 10 Pro needs to have more than just a fancy design for it to be worth recommending. Let's see if can deliver the goods.
