HTC One X review: eXtra special

12 April 2012
How about this for a rebound after a rather quiet second half of last year. A massive change of game plan sees HTC focus on a special few products instead of trying to create a smartphone for every taste. An outstanding result of this effort...

                        Yep. I must say this thing works beautifully. I have tried all the big boy smartphones. Had my first smartphone many years before iphone came on the scene. But this HTC one x is by far the best handset I have tried thus far. At first I was worried that the battery life might be a problem but I am glad to report the battery has lasted 14 hours still with 33 percent left with good use. Just don't think it will replace your Xbox and you'll be fine.

                                  Got mine yesterday. Gotta say this is packed with WOW!

                                  The screen is fantastic, the build quality is great, Beats Audio IS really special! Very fluid. dunno why people are saying there's lagging. Also, noted that the outdoor visibility is the best I have seen.

                                  Battery is reasonable. Will report back after a week of usage.

                                  After having used blackberry, iPhone and Samsung SGSII, I feel now I have finally gotten my money's worth.

                                    With normal use the battery life is outstanding ...with heavy use you get about 12-15 hrs ...and about 6 hrs of constant use ... that's just great with an awesome screen and CPU like that. It's blazing fast!

                                        Anonymous, 19 Apr 2012I disagree ...the battery is phenomenal for such a device .... moreI thought I should report back about my batter life this week. Much better.

                                        I have gotten (phone stats say):

                                        1 day 5 hours

                                        3h:55m screen time

                                        1 hour NBA video streaming

                                        3G, WIFI, BLuetooth on for over 17 hours..

                                        Thats why battery is non removable.
