After releasing a slew of variants of its One flagship handset in Asian markets, HTC has announced four new LTE Android phones for the US.
The latest arrivals round out HTC’s mid-range Desire lineup. They run Android Lollipop and come with quad-core Snapdragon processors and 2,000mAh batteries.
At the lower end of the spectrum is the Desire 520, which features a 4.5-inch 854×480 pixel display, an 8-megapixel camera on the back that shoots 720p video and a 2-megapixel front camera.
There’s also the Desire 526, which has a slightly larger 4.7-inch 960×540 pixel screen, 8GB of onboard storage with a MicroSD slot for up to 200GB more space, and 1.5GB RAM.
