Previous entries in this series include the HTC  Desire 610 and the HTC Desire 816, which are both good, if rather  unremarkable, smartphones.The  hook with the HTC Desire 510, according to its manufacturer, is that it  is the cheapest LTE-capable smartphone it has made. At £149 (around  $248, AU$265) the HTC Desire 510 isn't the cheapest 4G handset on the  market in the UK at least, with the EE Kestrel coming in at just £99.It's  pretty much the same price as the Moto G 4G, which can be had for  around £155 (around $256, AU$276), and quite a bit cheaper than the  OnePlus One's price tag of £250 (about $414, AU$445) for the 64GB model.The  promise of a blisteringly fast 4G data connection wrapped in an  affordable handset is certainly a tempting offer, but can the HTC Desire  510 surpass its predecessors and not just be a 'good enough' phone, but  an excellent one?The HTC Desire 510 has the body dimensions of 139.9 x 69.8 x 9.99mm, but it sits in the hands comfortably enough. The  body itself has rounded edges and looks similar to the Desire 610 –  though the front-facing camera is located on the upper-left hand corner  of the body, rather than the upper-right.The  choice of going with the HTC Desire 610's more elegant design compared  to the Desire 500's more budget (and outdated) look is a good move in my  eyes. <img src="http://cdn4.mos.techradar.futurecdn.net//art/mobile_phones/HTC/HTC%20Desire%20510/Desire510%20HandsOn/P1019112-580-100.JPG" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />This is unmistakably a budget smartphoneYou're   not going to mistake the HTC Desire 510 for a high end phone, however.  There's no brushed aluminium casing like in the flagship HTC One M8; the  HTC Desire 510 is a budget handset after all, so a plastic case is the  order of the day here. Still,  the improved design means that at first glance the HTC Desire 510  doesn't look like a budget phone, and can look good next to more  expensive smartphones. Essentially you can whip the HTC Desire 510 out  of your pocket without people around you recoiling in horror.The  bezel around the HTC Desire 510's screen has been reduced when compared  to the HTC Desire 610, which results in the HTC Desire 510 looking  sleeker, and not feeling quite so bulky. I found it quite easy to hold  the phone whilst using my thumb to scroll over much of the screen. As  with the HTC Desire 610, the power button remains on the top, with the  volume controls on the right hand side of the case.<img src="http://cdn1.mos.techradar.futurecdn.net//art/mobile_phones/HTC/HTC%20Desire%20510/Desire510%20HandsOn/P1019124-580-100.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Volume buttons are on the right hand sideThe  power button has a nice click to it that feels satisfying and  responsive, and its placement (to the left of the top of the case) makes  it easy to reach regardless of which hand you use to hold the HTC  Desire 510.The volume buttons don't feel quite as  satisfying to use, however, as the shorter travel of these buttons makes  them feel softer and less responsive. <img src="http://cdn4.mos.techradar.futurecdn.net//art/mobile_phones/HTC/HTC%20Desire%20510/Desire510%20HandsOn/P1019117-580-100.JPG" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Thankfully the headphone jack is on the top of the phone and not the bottomThe  headphone jack also remains on the top of the HTC Desire 510, which may  come as a relief to those of you who find headphone jacks at the bottom  of handsets (such as on the iPhone 5c and HTC One E8) a rather fiddly and inconvenient trend. The  back of the case is slightly curved, and it is made of polycarbonate  material, which unfortunately gives the HTC 510 a bit of a cheap feel to  it – but then, to be fair, this is a cheap phone.<img src="http://cdn3.mos.techradar.futurecdn.net//art/mobile_phones/HTC/HTC%20Desire%20510/Desire510%20HandsOn/P1019122-580-100.JPG" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The shiny white plastic doesn't lend itself towards a high-end lookThe  HTC Desire 510 comes in two colours "Terra White" and "Meridian Grey".  The review handset was a Terra White version of the HTC Desire 510, and  it's an attractive pure white hue that's reminiscent of early Apple  products. The "Meridian Grey", is an attractive charcoal grey that also  looks very nice.The HTC Desire 510 is light enough to  comfortably hold in one hand as well, yet it still feels substantial  enough that you won't feel shortchanged. Even with the plastic-feeling  case, when holding the HTC Desire 510 it feels pretty robust.<img src="http://cdn4.mos.techradar.futurecdn.net//art/mobile_phones/HTC/HTC%20Desire%20510/Desire510%20HandsOn/Desire510-HandsOn-09-580-100.JPG" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The Desire 510 feels fairly robustThough  I wouldn't recommend flinging the Desire 510 around, it definitely  feels like it could take a few knocks and drops in its stride.  Crucially, it doesn't feel like it will shatter the first moment you  accidentally drop it.It certainly feels like a well  built bit of kit, especially for the price. Hopefully dropping the 510  won't be too commonplace – though the back of the case is slightly  curved, the smooth plastic doesn't feel too slippery. One  thing that the Desire 510 case lacks which is present in the 610's  case, and in a number of other Android smartphones, is that there is no  microSD card port along the side of the case for easy access.Instead  you have to take the back of the case off and remove the battery to  insert the memory card. It's not a huge problem, but it is inconvenient  and a bit of a shame to see that port removed from being easily accessed  on the side.Interface and performance      The  operating system installed on the HTC Desire 510 is Android 4.4.4, and  comes with HTC's own software HTC Sense and HTC BlinkFeed preinstalled.As with other HTC handsets such as the HTC One Mini 2 and the HTC One M8,  the Android KitKatcontinue reading:-<a href="http://reviewsense.blogspot.com/2014/11/htc-desire-510-review.html" target="_blank">http://reviewsense.blogspot.com/2014/11/htc-desire-510-review.html</a></blockquote>
