The HTC Desire 620, of which we told you earlier this week, has been officially announced in Taiwan - HTC’s home country. The new handset has two versions: the Desire 620 (featuring LTE connectivity and a 64-bit quad-core Snapdragon 410 processor clocked at 1.2 GHz), and the Desire 620G (this one doesn’t support LTE, and is powered by a 1.3 GHz octa-core MediaTek MT6592 processor).

Both handsets run Android 4.4 KitKat with Sense 6 UI.

The Desire 620 is expected to go on sale in Taiwan on December 1, while the Desire 620G should be released in mid-December. The Snapdragon model costs $225 (6,990 TWD), while the MediaTek one will be cheaper: $160 (4,990 TWD).
