Sounds like a great device. Unfortunately it would be a step down if I looked to upgrade to it. I have a HTC One M9. I do like that 5.5 inch screen tho 👍😎
The only downside in moving from the M9 to the HTC Bolt is BoomSound speakers. The Bolt has a larger and higher resolution display, better front and rear camera and IP57 water resistance.
Only a fool will spend $600 on 3g of RAM. 820 processor. You can get a far better phone for $250-300, any time. HTC 10 at $499 for example.
Is this relased?
