It has the same hardware specifications as that of the 610 along with some minor improvements and changes. The device has not yet been released. However, if you are thinking about the upgrade, you should take a look at the brief comparison between these two devices.
Considering the build quality, both the devices have the same plastic shells, but the 620 is longer and wider than the 810 with the same thickness. At 145g, the Desire 620 also weighs slightly heavier than the 810. Even though the 620 is a bit bulkier, it still looks more impressive compared to the 610. The Desire 620 comes in a wide range of colors with variants like saffron, gray, Santorini white, tangerine, white, milky gray, tuxedo gray and marble white. According to reports, the device features a two-tone color scheme. While the frame and the camera ring comes in one color, the back, and the BoomSound speaker grills come in another form.
The HTC Desire 610 has a 1.2GHz Quad-Core Snapdragon 400 Processor, with 1GB RAM and an Adreno 305 GPU. The HTC Desire 620 features a slightly upgraded Snapdragon 410 processor, with the same 1GB RAM and an Adreno 306GPU. Even though they have the same processors, the Desire 620 is slightly more powerful, owing to its 64-bit architecture.
Hence, it will be best suited for the Android Lollipop update, when it receives it.
