Well according to the specs (pretty disappointing, but expected that from HTC), its just an ICS installed HTC Desire S...
Single core processor, well, is not future proof according to me... But if u want the HTC experience and prefer looks over specs, then it is for you at that price range...

Watch out the size of the mobile. It is just 2/3rd size of galaxy r. You need the bigger display to enjoy ics, surf, games etc. My friend recently bought in poorvika Chennai. They did not have the dummy piece and asked him to pay before they open the box and show the piece. I don't like the physical buttons and design. Those spaces could have been used for display.

It depends on expectations, it's clearly a successor of HTC legend, and it has its advantages and disadvantages. User interface is pretty nice, u cannot even compare ****ty tw style. HTC tries at least make some modification in their ui, not like sammy. I can bet that camera is not worse than ours. Unibody feels more sturdy and solid. And think that not everyone is an android freak that likes huge and fast devices. But even here devs interest will be most possibly much bigger than in case of sgr. If the price is good I think it's worth to consider.

price difference of sgr and one v
(in indian markets)

sgr ~21000 INR(~405 USD)
one v ~18500 INR (~356 USD)

What about htc one s??? You could consider that if it's available and in your budget

One s is dual core and has decent specs

I thought about it too! I just don't trust HTC after my adventure with Incredible S and qualcom snapdragon is not the fastest cpu (1,5 ghz in SGS II Lte is not as fast as 1,2 hgz exynos in sgs II). If not exynos I would prefer Ti OMAP. So I'll wait till somebody test it.

Well, it is obviously not as good as the R going by specs. But mostly everybody has had some issue or the other with the R. HTC devices are the most reliable in my experience.
And the dev support would be awesome.
