The outer shell is a smooth hard plastic very similar to the stuff they use for the Samsung Galaxy phones

Biggest problem I have is the constant sd card dismounting, will randomly dismount, very annoying, has ugly plastic

Definitely needed a cover, I'd recommend:Tri-color Double Dip Genuine Hard Plastic Shell Case Cover For HTC Desire 816^Hard glass screen covers do not fit under this case though, so I wouldn't waste the money on being over-prepared

The back of the phone is an annoying sticky plastic material that smudges easily and makes the phone feel cheap

Would be better without the cheap plastic feel, but once again..in this price range..not bad

bought a hard plastic slim case that sort of smashes the sim card into the slot and keeps it in place

The only thing i dislike is the back, its very cheap plastic that scratches very easy if its put down flat on a hard surface, i would recommend to buy a case to go with.

The body is two pieces, shiny plastic on the back and matte plastic around the rim and on the front

You need to get 3 other things with this phone:1) a case (the phone does not have gorilla glass)2) a TEMPERED GLASS screen protector, NOT some cheap plastic one (remember this phone doesn't have gorilla glass)3) an SD card for storagePros: Very fast, Beautiful big screen, ANDROID 5.0 (Lollipop), HTC Sense 6, Great back (13MP

Even though the front looks great, the back looks cheap because of the shiny plastic (which is a fingerprint magnet)

Some people may dislike the plastic back and the fingerprints that will get all over it, but that's a very minor concern - you're not using the back of your phone

So now i can never remove this crappy plastic case or else the simm card shoots out of my phone

I fell l in love

Loved it, although I would suggest not turning up the volume to loud as to avoid blowing out the speakers (especially the bottom one).

Run as fast as you can to any other phone but this one

I bought this phone for sale for $77 just over a year ago, and it has held up and performed as well as you could hope for the price

just as good as the galaxy s5 if not better.

I have longer than normal fingers and find it difficult to swipe as easily as in the past on my HTC Evo

Battery is what scared me a

I use it to take notes in church as well as in meetings at work and it works great.

I had to sign in with my Gmail account and everything worked!I like the size, I like the phone

Amazing i love this photo.
