HTC Desire 22 Pro goes official with Snapdragon 695

HTC has now released a new smartphone Desire 22 Pro with the motive of holding up with the Metaverse or the Web3 world. The device succeeds last year’s Desire 21 Pro and brings some features that focus on Metaverse. Here, we will dig into the specs, features, availability, and the expected price of the HTC Desire 22 Pro in Nepal.

HTC Desire 22 Pro Overview

Viverse Integration

Let’s begin with the Viverse platform the phone is built into it. Through the Viverse, you can take your avatar in and out of various virtual worlds. You can play any content on the Extended Reality (XR) devices, and it even comes with pre-installed applications to entertain the trade of digital assets on the platform. In addition, it is very easy to create Vive Avatars and customize them as well. And with that avatar, you can travel to any metaverse virtual art exhibition, concerts, meetings, and other activities.

Likewise, another notable feature of the device is Vive Wallet. You can use it to manage and store your virtual assets while buying NFTs in the Vive Market and so on. HTC also claims that the phone supports the Vive app and VR glasses. However, if you overlook these metaverse features, HTC Desire 22 Pro is just another midrange phone.

Display and Design

HTC Desire 22 Pro sports a 6.6-inches IPS LCD screen with Full HD+ resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. It boasts 1080×2412-pixels capacity alongside 400-pixel density. There is Corning Gorilla Glass that protects the screen from any damage, and it adds up to IP67 certification against water and dust. HTC also claims that it can resist up to 1m of water for around 30 minutes.
