Editorial report

HTC Wildfire E2 technical sheet

The HTC Wildfire E2 is suited to basic smartphone use for someone who wants a lighter handset, but that comes with less battery capacity and slower charging than most phones launched around the same time. Its 4,000 mAh battery holds less charge than most, and its 10 W charging is slower than on most phones of its time.

The 6.22-inch IPS LCD sits in a phone weighing 173.5 g, less than most phones of its time. Its 276 ppi pixel density is below average. Android 10 runs on a MediaTek Helio P22, paired with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage; both memory figures are below what most phones launched around the same time offer. Storage is expandable, providing room beyond the built-in capacity.

The 16 MP rear camera has an f/2.2 aperture, among the weakest of its time, and records 1080p video at 30 fps. Everyday connections include dual Nano-SIM, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.0 and a 3.5 mm audio jack. Overall, the HTC Wildfire E2 is worse than most phones launched around the same time, with a NeoScore of 3.8. It is a basic, relatively light option, but its battery and charging figures make it a poor fit for buyers who put those specifications first.
