Comparisons Featuring HTC Lead

Short Review

  • The HTC Lead features a compact design with a 4.3-inch IPS LCD display, offering a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels at approximately 217 ppi.
  • Its build quality is standard for the era, with a black finish but lacks water resistance and specific material details.
  • Performance is powered by a dual-core 1.2 GHz Broadcom BCM4329 chipset and 768MB of RAM, which may struggle with multitasking.
  • The camera system includes a 5 MP rear camera with autofocus, but it lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
  • Battery specifications are not provided, indicating a potential limitation in longevity.
  • The device runs on Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) with HTC's Sense UI, which may feel outdated compared to modern standards.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 3.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The absence of stereo speakers and the presence of a headphone jack are notable features.
  • Overall, the HTC Lead presents basic functionality suitable for essential tasks but lacks advanced features and performance capabilities.
