amtrag 20 Report post Posted May 27, 2014 (edited) As per HTC India website, it does support CDMA. Text quoted from support section on the site: "In slot 1, insert a CDMA nano UIM or 3G/GSM nano SIM card. In slot 2, insert a GSM nano SIM."

India LTE band is 2300 while rest of Asia is 2600. 2. Go to gsmarena and search for HTC One DS. Then click compare and add 816. You will see a very nice comparison.

kshah 452 Report post Posted May 29, 2014 If it has no LTE why invest so high on average specked handset? HTC still seems to be treating Indian market as second class market. AFAIK most current Qualcomm chipsets support all LTE bands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
