And HTC finally unleashed its much-talked about HTC 10 smartphone. But for the Indian HTC fans, before rejoicing, you must know that the device will be launched in India with the name 'HTC 10 Lifestyle' and it is a little different from the original HTC 10.

The original HTC 10 comes with a 5.2-inch Quad HD display, 4GB of RAM, 64GB internal storage (32GB variant will also be available) and a 2.2GHz Snapdragon 820 chipset. However, on the other hand, the HTC 10 Lifestyle (Indian variant) comes with the same display clubbed with a 1.8GHz Snapdragon 652 chipset, 3GB of RAM, and 32GB internal storage.

Well, India is not the only one who is going to get the HTC 10 Lifestyle in lieu of HTC 10, Russia will also have to make do with the same model. HTC has not yet clarified why it is launching a different variant for India and Russia. We do hope that the Lifestyle variant is priced lower than the original HTC 10. Except for the RAM, storage, and chipset, thankfully, other features remain the same for both the variants. Also, internal storage will be expandable up to 2TB via microSD card for both the variants.

The HTC 10 Lifestyle, just like the original HTC 10, comes crafted in a metal body. It features a fingerprint sensor, which is embedded in the Home Button. Backing the HTC 10 Lifestyle is a 3,000mAh battery with Quick Charge 3.0.
