Medium specs at affordable price.Aayush Agarwal (May 26, 2014) on Gadgets 360Good, attractive design with power packed front facing speakers. Superb LTE with good network reception. Within the budget. Negatives include an old android version. Also, the screen resolution fails to impress The dual core processor is not much powerful at times. The bottom line is HTC Desire 601 is an affordable option to consider.Is this review helpful?
