Three new smartphones have been made official today by HTC and they are the HTC Desire 700, Desire 501 and the dual-SIM Desire 601. We have some details on specs, pricing and more right ahead, with two of these new handsets being dual-SIM devices.
These are all low to mid-range phones with the HTC Desire 700 (pictured below) being the pick of the bunch. HTC Desire 700 specs include a 1.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon quad-core processor, a 5-inch qHD display with resolution of 960 x 540, 1GB of RAM, and 8GB of internal storage that’s expandable via microSD.
The Desire 700 is a dual-SIM device (first SIM HSPA, second SIM GSM/EDGE), and it also has an 8-megapixel rear camera with BSI sensor, f/2.0 aperture, HTC Zoe support and 1080p video capture plus a 2.1-megapixel front-facing shooter.

It also has an 8-megapixel rear camera, 2.1-megapixel front-facing camera, but no HTC Zoe support although it does have HTC ImageChip. Further specs include a 2100 mAh battery, but this is not a dual-SIM handset as the first one was. The price of this phone for Taiwan is NTD 9,900 (around $330).
The final phone we have details of is the dual-SIM version of the HTC Desire 601 that was already available.
