Taiwanese smartphone company HTC announced its upcoming Desire 826 early this month in CES 2015. But the company didn’t tell much about the pricing of the phone. Now that the phone has launched in China, the price has been revealed.






According to HTC, the 16 GB model of HTC Desire 826 will cost CNY 2,299, which is roughly Rs. 22,600. Customers who need even more storage can opt for 32 GB model which costs CNY 2,499, about Rs. 24,500.



Anyone living in China can order the phone from HTC Eshop online. The phone will eventually make its way into India, too. It is already listed on HTC India’s website, but the availability date or pricing has not yet been revealed for Indian customers. However, people can get a rough estimate of the price of the new phone now that it’s launched in the sub-continent.
