Description

The HTC One V is a smartphone with a 3.7" SLCD2 screen with 480x800 pixels of resolution, 1GHz single-core processor, 512MB of RAM and 4 gigs of internal storage. These specs, together with the 5MP camera on the back place it at the entry level of the new One lineup from HTC, but the HTC One V is running Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, which is always a good thing. Moreover, the phone features the new HTC ImageChip, which allows for all the good camera stuff in the new One line, like low-light capabilities, and the ability to shoot pictures while you film a video

This device is also known as HTC Primo, HTC T320e

Phone owned for more than a year

Low internal memory, very slow internet, virtually unusable. Other than that this phone has some solid features, the body and design are amazing- Camera is amazing too high contrast and very vivid colours. The phone uses very low speeds for its processor and ram but for general use like, camera, texting, calling . Go for this-
I would like to add one more crucial detail, I still walk around with this phone for the camera but not only for the camera. Although previously ridiculed, The sound quality on the headset with BEATS is very noticeable and extremely good- My headphones were over 150 and blow the specs off beats (as do most). Some people just don't know good sound and once they make a formal decision whether they like a certain phone or not their opinion tends to become bias... Despite the previous reviews the battery take forever to recharge.

Good entry level phone for light usage with Premium feel.
But this is not gonna be your phone for the long run. You'd feel it's lacking in the inside. Hardware is on the low end, which translates to slower performance.
