Welcome and for me some HTC Desire 21 Pro 5G
0:12
A fairly easy name there. And today I'll go over unboxing along with an overview of this phone
0:18
So let's start off by actually popping it up. So nothing right here
0:24
We do actually have a nice little signature what kind of color this is
0:29
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 right over here. So
0:39
I just put it aside. Whip out the phone. So I'm going to set it to the side for
0:45
now. And then here we got this not very well-designed packaging, I would call it
0:53
So we lift it up. We've got some stickers. I'm just going to get rid of this. Then we got
0:58
more crap. Okay, let's see we got some ejectal instructions and
1:13
apparently I can't take it out so just flip it over some more paperwork and then we also get
1:23
earbuds. It's surprising. Now they don't have any kind of rubber tips. They're
1:28
basically looking like they're designed after AirPods with the circle circle design but themselves and the end is type C so I assume there's no
1:40
headphone jack now going further cable type A to type C and the charger
1:48
let's see what it is so this is a 18 watts charger which you can see right
1:55
here so Not the worst charger, also not anywhere close to the best
2:03
Okay, so let's just go get to the phone now because that's basically all we get in here
2:09
Also move this to this side. Oh, we can just like do it this way, I guess
2:20
And okay, so there's the phone. I do have to say I do like the goldish accent
2:28
where it's around the camera and also the fingerprint sensor. Okay, so while this is booting up, I'm gonna go over the specs of this device
2:38
So, the screen is a 6.7 inch 1080p by 2400 iPS LCD display with a 90 hertz refresh rate
2:47
And when it comes down to the size of it, comparing to the device
2:51
it is an 83% screen to body ratio with a 393 pixels per inch
2:57
per inch. So I would say just a typical screen for majority of the devices. It is, well
3:05
it does have one benefit of it being in 90 Hertz. Obviously there are better devices than
3:12
90 Hertz are also at a cheaper price range. But yeah, it's still nice that it's not just plain
3:18
60 Come on Let me go So it looks like straight away this is looking at like a straight straight Android without any kind of like skin over it So that I would say nice Let go quickly through the setup
3:41
There we go. That was a really quick setup, to be honest. It smacks out the brightness, so there we go. This is the screen as can see
3:49
Fairly minimal bezels. I mean, they could have been smaller, but it's not that bad
3:56
Then when we move it, move to the back, we can see that we do have a quad camera setup
4:01
Honestly, I'm just going to call it a dual camera setup, as you will see soon enough what I mean
4:09
So going over these cameras, it's a 48 megapixel main shooter, which is a wide lens
4:14
Then we got an 8 megapixel ultra wide and then the 2 megapixel depth and macro lenses which I don't even count in because they're just a trash lens, two lenses that are just
4:25
added to rack up the count of cameras. It's completely crap moved from any
4:32
manufacturer to do this and I literally despise it. It's such a, it's basically an
4:36
insult to majority of the people that actually know a little bit about phones and
4:41
what they're buying. So let's actually go into the cameras. I can capture
4:48
photos and you can see what I mean by those cameras being just completely
4:52
useless. I'm also going to capture a couple of normal photos. so you can see how the actual 48 megapixel camera performs here
5:14
That is obnoxiously loud. It's not the most pleasant sound I have ever heard
5:18
I mean just, when you click anywhere to grab focus, it has this really loud click
5:25
noise. Let me just put it next to the microphone and do it. Come on
5:38
So yeah, it's not very pleasant, I would say. Okay, so let's get back to the camera
5:53
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
6:36
There is also, okay, there we go, there is more stuff here
6:41
So, there we go, white angle. So this is just going to be the white sensor
6:54
And lastly we gonna go over the macro because it does come with the device which can already imagine how bad it going to be
7:11
There we go. Okay, so that should be good enough. Just a quick, simple camera test
7:17
Nothing really serious. So this is the macro. Completely abhorrent. No excuse for it
7:25
Two megapixel isn't enough to... isn't enough to justify a micro lens, don't include it at all, especially when you have a 48
7:31
megapixel white sensor that will outperform this. It's just a marketing move that shouldn't even
7:38
exist. White or ultra white right here looks okay, apart from the plant not being in the focus
7:47
But I guess if you're trying to capture some kind of wide angle is sufficeable
7:53
Let's see, this is bouquet. obviously it's terrible now what I mean by that as you can see right here now it's
8:05
not necessarily the worst thing I have seen but it's still bad that I wouldn't
8:10
want to take photos with this mode if it's gonna make some kind of weird blurry
8:15
effect on places where it shouldn't be so normally as you can see if you
8:20
ever know how cameras work the okay which this thing tries to imitate and fails miserably at
8:29
because the depth sensor at 2 megapixels just doesn't do enough or good job
8:36
So if you look at it, right here, this is the further part
8:41
and this would be the closer part to the lens itself, right
8:45
So if this is focused and this is focused, that means that right everything around here should be also in focus
8:51
because it's literally at the in-between points of these two different focuses, or distances
8:59
So there is no reason for this to be blurred out, this area right over here
9:04
And also another part is the needles right here, they kind of go outside
9:08
So the camera just decides to completely not bother with it and thinks
9:12
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
9:20
and then you look back here, they're focused, focus, and boom, smeared
9:24
I would call this unusable. This is just pitiful. So anyway, the macro end-depth or portrait in this case are useless here, so don't even use them
9:37
Let's go back now and look at the 48 megapixel white sensor
9:43
And apart from it being super bright, like this is absolutely beyond..
9:50
comprehension bright, like, not really sure why. To be fair, after a couple of seconds, it did decide to drop down, but basically when you
10:00
tap on it to get in focus it blows it out like this
10:05
But anyway, if you zoom in, you can see that photo is okay, especially at this kind of
10:12
zoom, it looks fine. Maybe if it's not going to be so..
10:18
and just quickly capture one more. Just so we can see how it looks like without this super bright exposed image
10:29
Okay so there we go This is again normal sensor right here the 48 and it looks fine It does have a little bit of a blurriness just because I kind of suck at taking photos
10:40
But other than that, it looks like a fairly okay image. I don't really have anything to complain about
10:46
So yeah. So moving on at the front right here at the cutout, we do have a 16 megapixel wide shoots at an 80p 30 and nothing really spectacular here. I won't even
10:57
go into it, just waste of time. So last year, I'll go over the actual specifications of this phone, which it comes with a
11:06
snapdragon 69, I mean 690, 5G, has a 128 built-in storage, expendable via SD card, 8 gigabytes of
11:20
RAM, 5,000 million-hour battery, 18-watt charging, and fingerprint on the side. but it's basically all the worth mentioning stuff
11:29
Now, I had a price of around 350 euros at this device is nowhere near being worth the money
11:37
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
11:48
when they're basically so far behind that you can measure their delay of, I don't know
11:54
technology that they decided to adopt in decades instead of weeks or months like every other company
12:02
And innovation is most certainly not part of their vocabulary anymore. So this device comes at an overpriced price while not really delivering anything that is worth the money
12:17
And just so I make this super clear, this device is going to be outperformed by like Xiaomi
12:26
Poco X3 Pro and that device comes at a hundred euros less
12:33
and has almost everything better actually no I take that but it has everything better
12:41
so RAM it's going to be the same or you can spec it out to be the same Snapdragon
12:48
way better battery charging better fingerprint I mean it still has a fingerprint in the same place
12:57
Display is same, just refresh rate will be better. So, yeah, there is not really a comparison here
13:04
This device is outperformed by better devices that come at, well, cheaper price tag
13:14
For 250, you can have something that will blow this out completely
13:18
So to finish this off, it seems like I'm kind of just taking a complete dump on it
13:23
because I am. It's completely not worth the money. Unless you're some kind of diehard fan of
13:28
HDC, which I honestly am not sure why would you be, if they haven't produced anything
13:35
decent in, well, some time now. So yeah, if you're not a diehard fan, don't even look at this
13:43
device. But that's all I can say. So yeah, that being said, if you found this very helpful
