Design
- Premium look and feel, and aesthetic design
- Compact dimensions with a 5-inch display
- The back panel has a glossy finish on the Desire 628 which is a fingerprint magnet and requires constant cleaning
- The power and volume button sit flat with the frame on the side - when pressed they don't give the satisfying clicky feel of a button
- No fingerprint scanner
Software
- HTC Sense is one of the more refined Android UIs
Performance
- Decent speed/performance in day-to-day use - the phone is generally impressive with zippy navigation and handles playback of full HD video without any issues
Camera
- Decent rear camera with minimal noise in daylight as well as indoors
- Average front camera
Audio
- The in-ear speaker volume is on the lower side, which hinders call quality
Battery
- Mediocre battery life - struggles to last through the day
