Just after announcing two mid-range smartphones at MWC 2014, HTC is going down a rung and unveiling the Desire 310 in China. Aside from supporting two SIM cards in one, this smartphone ditches the usual Qualcomm for a quad-core MediaTek processor.

The HTC Desire 310 is a low-range smartphone like any other, except for one probably interesting point. While most manufacturers would run to Qualcomm’s lower end selection for low cost devices, HTC decided to use a 1.3 GHz quad-core MediaTek MT6582M instead. MediaTek has been the chip maker of choice to keep costs down, but it’s a bit rare for it to be used by a major smartphone manufacturer like HTC.

Aside from that, the rest of the specs are pretty normal for this range of devices. You have 512 MB of RAM and 4 GB of internal storage, expandable with a microSD card up to 32 GB in capacity. The display measures 4.5 inches across the diagonal and supports a FWVGA resolution of 854×480 pixels. The 5 megapixel rear camera is capable of 1080p video recording while the 3 megapixel front-facing one only supports VGA video. And of course, it supports two SIM cards, with the first one supporting W-CDMA networks while the second is only limited to GSM.
