HTC One X (Awesome phone)

One of the most powerful and best phone in the market. After reading reviews and specifications I choose this HTC One X instead of Samsung Galaxy3. Before I heard good things about HTC devices. Now I enjoy using every minutes of this handset.

Its very good for everyday usage but the battery time and camera could use a little bit of improvement. The multimedia also is a bit disappointing but there are alternatives for that. The browsing experience is also improved with the jelly bean update.

Awesome mobile, but needs to be improved
tarcisiorm has owned it for less than year before publishing this review
HTC One X International Version is impressive, it's build quality is very curious, not plastic as another one. Mine WiFi is normal, but sometimes it disconect and conect again, don't know if just mine. For internet viewing it's great, as its 720p let you see all the page without problems, so are the videos, that it can render 1080p @ 60fps 24mbps from my digital camera. HTC Sense is beautiful, the best UI available, BUT it is still heavy, so it's easy to see some frame skips, but some animations are smoothly too. Camera is fine, looks like a normal digital camera, but I think S3 or Iphone 5 has a better one. But the worst lack is the battery. It only works for around 4h for web browsing. And less than 2h for polygonal games. So I had bought an external emergency charger, that sometimes even with energy charger it uses more than recharge. It takes SO long to recharge if you are with display on.
So I think HTC should improve their HTC Sense framerate (it's almost perfect, but for a high-end, must be 60fps always), longer battery (One X+ should get a better battery, but Droid DNA/Butterfly...) and recharge faster. But HTC One X is a lovely cellphone and I just LOVE it! When HTC realize the next cellphone after Butterfly, I should buy it, Hope it gets 12MP camera and record 1080p 60fps videos.Build quality 10/10Reception 9/10Call quality 10/10Internet 10/10Multimedia 10/10Camera 9/10UI speed 9/10Everyday usage 10/10Text input 9/10Display 10/10Battery 7/10Pros

i have been an iphone user forever and never used such a big phone...iv had this phone for a while now and people who want to use their phone with one hand definitely should not buy this phone...on the contrary for web browsing and media junkies, its probably as good as it gets.
build quality is very good and you would be able to use it for a long time...with plastic you wont get dents on it as metal.
battery is sufficient for calls web browsing and everything else.
overall the experience is quite pleasant. but the size really makes it hard to make a call when your driving or if you only have one hand.Build quality 9/10Reception 9/10Call quality 10/10Internet 9/10Multimedia 9/10Camera 10/10UI speed 8/10Everyday usage 8/10Text input 9/10Display 8/10Battery 7/10Pros

Poor Build Quality
The_Maverick has owned it for less than month before publishing this review
I purchased the HTC One XL. This was my first HTC phone and I can say I am very disappointed with it. This is due to the poor build quality.
Only after a few days of use, the ceramic coating on my phone's gun metal grey chassis started to chip off. This was despite the fact that my phone had been carefully handled and had not been subjected to any sort of bashing or dropping.
A few days later, my phone developed 2 more problems. Firstly, a wifi connectivity issue arose. All of a sudden my phone was no longer able to connect to wireless networks. A quick search on Google showed that other users have had similar problems and that HTC has acknowledged the existence of such problems. Some users say that the wifi connection can be re-established by squeezing the phone at a particular place. To me this indicates a hardware problem and is simply unacceptable. The second problem was with the screen. The top right hand corner of my screen was poorly fitted and after only 2 weeks of use, what appears to be tiny trapped air pockets started to appear under the glass.
I am very disappointed with my HTC phone. This was supposed to be a flagship phone yet the build quality has let it down. I have complained directly to HTC and have so far not received a response. I have sent my phone into their Hong Kong repair centre to have it repaired. The staff at the repair centre did not seem helpful at all. The after sales service quality is poor. I will now have to wait and see if they will give...

I am really content with this phone. The One X has and is everything I want on a mobile phone. Except for one thing maybe ; The battery life. I find it correct and I can easily go for an entire day with it, but using it with my habits, I have to charge it the afternoon because it won't last the second day. Except of that, I just don't really know what to say because it is so user-friendly, I'm using it without asking questions about anything. I does everything I ask, and it does it good.

I thought this phone was a lot faster than I expected. I believe I am one of the lucky ones who received a HTC One X that doesn't have any bugs. That means, no problem with camcording, screen flickering, and etc. I'm truly glad that I got with the One X. The phone is light, but feels sturdy on hand. The display was absolutely beautiful. The sd card is internal and non expandable, but more than enough for most users. To me, the phone was the perfect choice. I've taken out the CON because Sense 4.1 is made the phone run much faster.
