The Desire 10 Pro is HTC’s latest mid-range smartphone, focusing mainly on design and camera quality. The company launched this phone back in November of last year, but it only went on sale in December.

Sitting pretty at Rs. 26,490, the Desire 10 Pro goes up against the likes of the Moto Z Play (Review), Asus ZenFone 3 (ZE552KL) (Review) and OnePlus 3 and 3T. All of these are excellent smartphones in our book, which means the Desire 10 Pro needs to have more than just a fancy design for it to be worth recommending.

HTC has been at the top of its game in recent times when it comes to build quality, and that shows here as well. The Desire 10 Pro has a metal body, which feels great when you hold it, also offers a good amount of grip. There are gold accents running along the edges, camera bump and back that give this phone a very striking look. The ‘Stone Black’ colour option that we received features a rubberised texture for the back, which certainly helps with grip, but also easily attracts scuff marks, some of which refuse to go away. We’re unsure if the other colour trims also have this issue, but if you have your eyes set on the black version then you might want to use a case.

HTC has fitted the Desire 10 Pro with a quality display. The 5.5-inch IPS panel produces good levels of brightness with good colours and contrast. The full-HD resolution ensures a decently high pixel count so there’s no visible pixellation of icons and text. There’s Gorilla Glass for added protection too. The display is tuned for a neutral tone by default but you can adjust the colour temperature in the Settings app if needed. The space above the display is a bit taller than the portion below, which makes the phone a bit longer than it should be. The capacitive buttons on the chin of the phone are backlit and responsive.

The power and volume buttons are on the right and have good tactile feedback. The power button also gets some ridges so it’s easily identifiable. On the left of the HTC Desire 10 Pro, you have the hybrid SIM slot that can accommodate two Nano-SIM cards or a Nano-SIM and a microSD card (up to 2TB) to expand the phone's storage. There’s a headphones socket on the top, and a Micro-USB port and speaker grille on the bottom The Desire 10 Pro has a visible camera bump around the back, followed by the LED flash and laser autofocus window just below it. There's also a fingerprint sensor around the back, which is quick at authentication and can double up as a button for snapping a selfie. We’re a little disappointed at the absence of a USB Type-C port here. Another disappointment is the lack of stereo speakers, so HTC's BoomSound enhancement only works with headphones.
HTC Desire 10 Pro specifications
Under the hood, the HTC Desire 10 Pro packs an octa-core MediaTek Helio P10 SoC, 4GB of RAM, and 64GB of storage. These core specifications look solid, and for all intents and purposes, they get the job done. However, when comparing performance in benchmarks to that of other phones in this price band, the Desire 10 Pro doesn't fare very well. The Helio P10 SoC is weaker than a Snapdragon 625, which is evident from the Desire 10 Pro's AnTuTu score of 55,187 and 3DMark Ice Storm unlimited score of 11,163. The Mali T-860 falls a bit short on performance in gaming benchmarks with a score of 18fps in GFXbench, versus an average of 28fps for phones using the Qualcomm chip.

Other specifications of the HTC Desire 10 Pro include Bluetooth 4.2, dual-band Wi-Fi b/g/n, FM radio, USB-OTG, and GPS. NFC and Wi-Fi are notably absent. The phone packs in the usual suite of sensors including a gyroscope. 4G with VoLTE is supported on both SIM slots.

The Desire 10 Pro runs a lean version of HTC Sense on top of Android 6.0 Marshmallow, just like the HTC 10 (Review). To avoid duplication of apps that serve the same purposes, HTC has used Google’s apps wherever possible, like Photos for the gallery and Play Music for the music player. The dialler and contacts apps have been cleaned up a bit, and there are some native HTC apps like Weather, Flashlight, and Boost+. The latter lets you manage permissions, clean junk files, and lock apps with the fingerprint scanner.


Some third-party apps are pre-installed, such as News Republic, Hungama, Under Armor Record, Facebook, and Instagram. There’s also a Themes app for changing the look of the UI.
