HTC One SV review: Picking up speed

28 January 2013
As the LTE networks rapidly increase their reach globally, support for them is no longer exclusively reserved for high-end devices. The HTC One SV is a clear example of this trend. The Android smartphone is far from the Taiwanese company’s top shelf...

              No way..About the QUADRANT STANDART EDITION . I have HTC ONE S with the S4 have score 6500+ and it is with stock Jelly Bean . So you have to update your results !

                I've had this phone since mid December and I would not go back to 3g again. It's such a big difference in speed. Yes, the camera is not great, but good enough for fb... The display is awesome, you don't look at the screen from 5cm, great colours, sharp, I'm absolutely satisfied with it. GPS + GLONASS (24 additional Russian satellites) will take you safely anywhere. I haven't experienced any lagging so far, with many apps open. I would definitely recommend this phone.

                  Why audio quality test for this one doen't include the scenario where headphone is plugged in? Most devices get a good result on external amplifier but suck on headphone, wondet if this one is the case?

                    Seriously, why HTC makes such poor cameras for smartphones? Every single device of them got terribly oversharpened images from the camera, it's visible even when you downscale the picture... It's almost unusable, seriously.

                      I wish they used the cool SV name for a flagship model. It kinda reminds me of Lamborghini SV, which stands for 'SuperVelocé'.. I assume that means 'SuperSpeed'.

                            it came with ICS, so HTC could offer JB update later.
                            it's a common marketing trick.

                              Yes it's outdated display. The screen size and resolution make image less sharper. For WVGA is best with 3.7" screen size.

                                I have no problem with ICS 4.0.4 on my S2, and ICS is still far better than iOS and WP8 and... so ICS 4.0.4 is not bad at all, it is actually more compatible with most apps and games than JellyBean!
