Verizon will soon be adding the HTC Desire 526 to its pre-paid lineup – a budget phone with a half-decent spec sheet. A 4.7-inch qHD display isn’t going to impress anyone who’s owned an HTC One phone in the past, but it’s definitely a set up for anyone who hasn’t yet made the jump to a smartphone.
HTC hasn’t revealed the price of the HTC Desire 526, but if the Desire 626 will be selling for less than $200 (contract-free), we can’t imagine the Verizon HTC Desire 526 going for any more than $175 when it hits store shelves later this summer.
