HTC Desire X Review

0. phoneArena posted on 24 Oct 2012, 07:06

Last time when HTC had a serious contender positioned in the mid-range Android category was when the One V hit the shelves. It was a cute little handset with good build quality and adequate performance. However, it has been a while since then, so we guess the maker decided to spice things up a bit with a new device.

desire x is better than xperia p when it has : Sense UI v4.0(not campare with Timescape UI) - beat audio(best quality sound) - wave support - micro Sd - bluetooth v4.0 - chipset Qualcomm MSM8225 Snapdragon - much better battry 1650 mAh - dynamic design

If you put "beats audio" above Walkman...I have bad news for you.

As of now, I think this is the best affordable mid-range smartphone in the market. Too bad htc didn't include a front facing camera:(

@Phonearena:
Are the specs mentioend accurate? Has it been updated after the review?
It says Desire X has Scratch-resistant glass & Compass. Is that true?
