Unboxing of HTC Desire 21 Pro 5G – What’s hidden inside box? By HardReset.Info

Welcome and following some HTC desire21 pro 5g, a fairly easy name there, and today I'll go unboxing along with an overview of this phone. So, let's start by actually popping it up so nothing on right here we do actually have a nice little uh, sigma signature, what kind of color this is, so it looks like we have two different colors, and you can see both of them. This is what they call shade blue. You can see over here, so let's just put that aside whip out the phone, so I'm going to set it to the side for now and then here we got this not very well-designed packaging. I would call it so you lift it up. We got some stickers, I'm just going to get rid of this.

Then we got more crap. Okay, let's see, we got sim ejector instructions, and can I like? Apparently I can't take it out. So let's just go flip it over some more paperwork, and then we also get earbuds not surprising. Now they don't have any kind of rubber tips. They're.

Basically, looking like they're designed after AirPods with the circular circle design but themselves and the end is type c, so I assume there's no headphone jack now going further cable type, a2 type c and the charger, let's see what it is. So this is an 18 watt charger which you can see right here, so not the worst charger, also not anywhere close to the best okay. So let's just go get to the phone now, because that's basically all we get in here this side- oh you can just like to do it this way, I guess and again, so there's the phone. I do have to say. I do like the goldfish accent where it's around the camera and also the fingerprint sensor.

Okay. So while this is booting up, I'm going to go over the specs of the device. So the screen is a 6.7 inch 1080p by 2400 IPS lcd with a 90 hertz refresh rate and when it comes down to the size of it comparing to the device, it is an 83 screen to body ratio with a 393 pixels per inch. So I would say just a typical screen for major majority of the devices it is uh. Well, it does have one benefit of it: being 90 hertz um.

Obviously there are better devices than 90 hertz, also at a cheaper price range um, but yeah. It's still nice that it's not just plain 60. Come on there we go, so it looks like straight away. This is looking at like a straight android without any kind of like skin over it. So that's I would say nice, let's go quickly through the setup there we go.

That was a really quick setup. To be honest, smacks out the brightness. So there we go now. This is the screen, as you can see, uh fairly minimal bezels I mean they could have been smaller, but it's not that bad um. Then, when we move it move to the back, we can see that we do have a quad camera setup.

Uh. Honestly, I'm just going to call it a dual camera setup, as you will see soon enough what I mean so going over this camera, it's a 48 megapixel main shooter, which is a white lens. Then we got an 8 megapixel ultra-wide and then the 2 megapixel, uh depth and macro lenses, which I don't even count in because they're just a trash, uh lens two lenses that are just added to rack up the count of cameras. It's completely crap moved from any manufacturer to do this, and I literally despise if it's such a's, basically an insult to majority of the people that actually know a little about phones and what they're buying so um. Let's actually go into the camera, so I can capture photos, and you can see what I mean by uh, those cameras being just completely useless.

I'm also going to capture a couple normal photos, so you can see how the actual 48 megapixel camera performs here that is obnoxiously loud. It's not the most pleasant sound I have ever heard. I mean just when you click anywhere to grab focus. It has this really loud click noise, and let me just put it next to the microphone and do it come on so yeah. It's not very pleasant, I would say okay, so let's get back to the camera.

So this is just a normal one: let's go trying to find the white sensor right here and does have an ultra white camera so trying to see where the white one would be, but I honestly can't seem to find it. Oh, there's also: okay, there we go. There is more stuff here, so here we go wide angle, so this is just gonna, be the white sensor and, lastly, we're going to go over the macro because it does come with the device which you can already imagine how bad it's going to be there. We go okay, so that should be good enough. Just a quick, simple camera test, nothing, nothing really serious.

So this is the macro uh completely abhorrent uh! No, no excuse for it.2 megapixels isn't enough to justify a micro lens, don't include it at all, especially when you have a 48 megapixel wide sensor that will outperform this. It's just it's just a marketing move that shouldn't even exist. Uh white or ultra white right here looks okay, apart from the plant not being in the focus, but I guess, if you're, trying to capture some kind of wide angle, this is sufficient. Let's see this is a both uh. Obviously it's terrible now what I mean by that, as you can see right here now, it's not necessarily the worst thing I have seen, but it's still bad.

I got to the point that I wouldn't want to take photos with this mode uh if it's going to make some kind of weird blurry effect on places where it shouldn't be so normally, as you can see, if you ever know how cameras work uh, the okay, which this thing tries to imitate and fails miserably at because the depth sensor at 2 megapixels just doesn't do enough or good job. So if you look at it uh right here, this is the further part, and this would be the closer part to the lens itself right. So if this is focused- and this is focused, that means that right everything around here should be also in focus, because it's literally at the in between points of these two different focuses so or distances. So there is no reason for this to be blurred out this area over here, uh and also another part as the needles right here they kind of go outside, so the camera just decides to completely not bother with it and thinks oh yeah. This is background, whatever blur it out, which makes this look abhorrent, because if you look at it right here, we have really focused needles, and then you look back here.

They're focus, focus and boom smeared it's. I would call this unusable. This is just pitiful, so anyway, uh the macro and depth uh or portrait in this case are useless here. So don't even use them. Let's go back now and look at the 48 megapixel wide sensor and apart from it being super bright like this, is absolutely beyond comprehension.

Bright like not really sure why uh to be fair after a couple of seconds, it did decide to drop, but basically, when you tap on it to get in focus, it blows it out like this. But anyway, if you zoom in you can uh I'll see that photo is okay, especially at this kind of zoom. It looks fine uh, maybe, if it's not going to be so let me just quickly capture one more just so we can see how it looks like without this super bright exposed image. Okay, so there we go. This is again a normal sensor right here that 48, and it looks fine.

It does have a little of a blurriness just because I kind of suck at taking photos um, but other than that it looks like a fairly okay image. I don't really have anything to complain about um, so yeah, so moving on uh at the front right here, the cutout we do have a 16 megapixel wide shoots at 1080p 30 and nothing really spectacular here. I won't even go into it and just a waste of time. So, lastly, I'll go over the actual specifications of this phone, which uh it comes with a snapdragon 69 nice I mean at 690, 5g has a 128 built-in storage, expandable via SD card 8, gigabytes of ram 5000, milliampere battery 18 watt charging and fingerprint on the side, and that's basically all the worth mentioning stuff now at a price of around 350 euros at these devices and nowhere near being worth the money. I don't consider anything here to be worth that much HTC is still one of those companies that year after year thinks that they can continue to pump out overpriced devices when they're, basically so far behind that you can measure their delay of, I don't know technology that they decided to adopt in decades instead of weeks or months like every other company and innovation is most certainly not part of their vocabulary anymore.

So this device comes at an over overpriced price uh, while not really delivering anything. That is worth the money, and just so I make this super clear, uh. This device is going to be outperformed by thing like Xiaomi, polo, x3 pro, and that device comes at 100 euros less and has almost everything better. Actually, no, I take that, but it has everything better, so ram uh, it's going to be the same, or you can spec it out to be the same. Um snapdragon way better uh battery charging, better fingerprint um I mean it still has the fingerprint in the same place.

Um display is same. I just refresh rate will be better, so yeah. There is not really a comparison here. This uh this device is outperformed by better devices that come at well cheaper price tag for 250. You can have something that will blow this out completely.

So to finish this off, it seems like I'm kind of just taking a complete dump on it, because I am, it's completely not worth the money uh unless you're some kind of die-hard fan of HTC, which I honestly I'm not sure. Why would you be if they haven't produced anything decent and well, some time now, uh so yeah? If you're, not a die-hard fan, don't even look at this device? That's that's all I can say so yeah I mean that being said. If you found this video helpful in any way, don't forget to hit the like button subscribe, and thanks for watching you.
