HTC Desire 10 Compact is a budget smartphone released in early 2017. Sold exclusively in the UAE, has not been seen on the Russian market.
In the UAE, the cost of a smartphone reaches 599 dirhams or 9,500 rubles.

You cannot find a page about this model on the official website of the company. HTC Desire 10 Compact belongs to the middle class device. Is there no firmware in Russian, you can always download it separately.
In September 2017, part of HTC was taken over by Google for $ 1 billion. They point out that the price is actually not high, since Google acquired only the production capacity, and not the patents themselves. After that, consumers considered that HTC mobile phones were the end, but no, the release of new models was not long in coming. The HTC Desire line is over 10 years old. At this point in time, the company greatly inflates prices, provided that the functionality does not improve: competitors' firms have much more necessary add-ons compared to NTS.
