Octa-Core Budget Smartphones

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This Device Offers Speedy Functionality Without Breaking the Bank

— April 11, 2023 — Tech
Taiwanese consumer electronics company HTC has gone ahead and announced the impending launch of a brand new budget smartphone that well and truly proves that an accessible price tag needn't necessarily come at the cost of desirable features.

The 'HTC Wildfire E3 Lite' is powered by an octa-core processor and will be offered to consumers in either a 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage version, or a more expansive variant that will come with 4 GB of RAM and up to 64 GB of storage. In both cases, the device's storage can be extended with the use of a microSD card.

As far as photographic capabilities are concerned, this Android device features a pair of rear cameras and a singular front camera, helping to cover everything from video conversations and selfies to scenic photography. Photos can be viewed on the E3 Lite's crystal-clear LCD display which comes with a resolution of 1,600 x 720.
